Not my style, but the owner has clearly built an impressive and unique show car with a lot invested in it.

It's not really my taste, but if he was going for a lowrider look, he did a nice job.

hmmm, you should use some of his pictures for your signature

But yeah, he's in a totally different scene, so I can't hate on his style. It looks like he had some quality mods done, custom kit and the whole interior is nicely done.

props for craftsmanship. i can always respect creative work. i wouldnt do it on an SC though. i like his attention to details in certain areas but the car seems like it has WAY too much going on. it has a wing, a mural, funky wheels, weird paint job with graphics, hood mural, trunk graffiti, weird body kit. it has a lot of cool ideas but they dont flow with the car. i like a very simple clean look and this car just doesnt have it.

different...yes. creative...yes. would i do that...no.
