Looks horrendous.
Visors are those cheap tat stick on ones, and the exhausts look like reject catering size baked beans tins.
All the gear, but clearly no idea.
Even the lip kit looks gash - nothing gels or flows, but yet still there are people here creaming their pants.
Just goes to prove there's no accounting for taste.
The daylight running lights mimic that of a Mercedes - that's about the only positive thing I can muster for this ruined car.

Haha. I think you're being a little harsh, but I see what you are saying to a certain extent. I think the stance and wheels are on point. Agree about the kit not being the best choice, IMO and the visors are not the best either. I disagree about the LEDs though. Yeah they're Mercedes LEDs, but they fit nicely with the 3GS.

Moving on... Nice build Albert! Loved it when it was white too!

And I apologize if I came across as someone making judgement.. I just know without a doubt your car is most likely stock.. Your type always chimes in on these type of threads with what I like to call "typical" responses

I like the kit! Just the stance is too low, assuming hes on air, and raises it for the streets.

Does anyone else see the irony here in a guy who is so upset about someone judging a car's appearance that he writes a response criticizing the person for judging, while at the same time judging that person?

FYI, you are wrong about me, but whatever.

To the car's owner, you saw my comments. I said I liked the car "a lot" so I don't know what Mr. Sensitive is so upset about.

Car looks sick. I was thinking of doing a flat hood/roof wrap. Looks great.

Find me a build which gives me a chubby as much as this one and others have done for most commenters here, and I'll happily join in the backslapping.
If I see a crap looking car, irrespective of brand, I'll voice that opinion.

Most of what's been put up for admiration, of the 3GS variety, has been very meh, and it's not a surprise when you see the nonsense and utter rubbish put out by the so-called experts, on their TV shows.
A fool and his money are definitely very easy parted

When something is done right/appropriately, I will admire the work as much as the next person - thus far I'm yet to see much that does a 3GS justice.

I don't know, too much for my taste and I hate those LEDs in our cars.

Depends what u like i guess, diff strokes for diff folks

some people scoff at the stance scene, however the work, time nad effort that goes into these builds is nothing short of great.

I have to admit i wasnt crazy bout the stance scene when i first bought my lex, was more into the euro look. Now im all about the stance scene, doesnt matter what the car make is. Getting the car to sit right is alot of hard work, and end result is usually quite amazing looking.

out of curiousty have u seen any stanced cars in real life? and that doesnt necesarily mean dumped to the floor (which i dont care for personally) but sitting on coils, slightly tucked w the wheels poking out a little bit. I think this is becoming the norm for euro/jap/american cars scenes

there you go, you said it best. obviously the stanced look is not for you. your a long way from the 60s and 70s hotrod/muscle car days. things change, things evolve.

funny you say you will admire the work when its done right. you obviously dont know how much work has gone into this car or else you would at least appreciate it even if it isnt your style.
