I like the color, the hood, and of course the doors and the flares, but I've never liked the Invader Kit. I'll stick with GT-4 look myself. But to each his own.
Funny thing about the gap, it doesn't add any functionality. Just behind the gap the hood sits flush with the radiator support, just behind the latch. But it would be cool if it did.

Noob question warning: are the fender flares purchased as seperate pieces and then molded or is that custom fiberglass work?

That car is nice. I like everything (flares and all) EXCEPT for the stupid gap in the front hood and the rear. If he sealed the dumb gap on the front and did the rear differently, I would so he did a nice clean job. But those two things just ruins it. If he were to be more tasteful about those 2 things, the car would be one of the nicest and cleanest 6th gens I've seen thus far.

It kind of gives you the impression that this car is a US car like celicarocker thinks; however, it probably is a european car if you notice the license plate and the website is basically in a language that is not english.
Just a thought?
Did you guys notice that the front turn signals are a perfect fit and he sells them on his website....hey maybe he has a kit for the vertical doors.
Considering that there are LHD in europe it is fairly likely it is in europe...also considering the fact that many of the pics on his website has LHD cars whereas it is a european site?.....
Conrad_Turbo was making lambo doors for 5th gens last I heard, still in the progress of making them, but he said they'd be really cheap. Wonder if 5th gen/6th gen doors are similar.

i just assumed it was USDM car... but noticing the licence plate, it changes me to think its euro...
what i should have said, was its one of the nicest non-japanese 6gc's ive seen (with a few minor changes... for me, mainly the lights on the back.... bleck....), becuase japan has the best 6gc's because they can get just about every kit... mmm... varis kits....
hows it taste motha f*cka
i like the modded rear bumper... the bottom half by the exhaust tips..
yuck...i would've thought that germans would do a better job than that.
minus the kit, decals, wang and lights...it's a sweet car.

Car looks good to me with the exception of the rear wing. The lights are alittle over board but think of what it looks like at night, it might look sweet with that effect. All in all it has a theme and well done, props on the effort alone to do it all.

Damn Jimmy, lurk much? Haven't seen you post in ages.

imagination working overtime. Some people will do very stupid things to get attention. This car looks to me like an episode of "Jacka$$".
Dont like-
fender flares
alloys
hood gap
tail lights
rear bumper
double exhast
decals
color
just about anything else
The only thing i like is the lower part of the rear bumper and how the exhausts come out of the grilles on the bumper. better word to use is "interesting" than "like though"
post a picture of it photo chopped
needs WAYYYY bigger tires on it.
