somthing just looks funny with that focus. i don't like the new style, but i didn't like the 05-07 style when
they came out either. those rims on the TC ain't that bad, but i like spokes. i don't think it looks like a train
on the side, it looks like a ********. the camo on the tiby is awesome, and on the suby too. ****! pontiac

Only thing that really needs to be changed on the FS car is the rear wheels need to be spaced out 5mm. And the mirrors belong on a Mach track...they need M3 mirrors or something. No not ebayM3 mirrors either, I'm talking these...

I wonder how it would look if the done WRC style instead (aka, similar shape to stock but smaller)

Image


PS I think I'm gonna start referring to the old WRC mirrors as Shrek Ears (as in something oddly small)

LOL. They are never referenced too tho. Hardly noone ever really realizes they are stubby.

Did anyone else notice that the thing in place of a side marker looks a lot like a special type of toy? :lol:
Did anyone else notice the dismal failure of trying to blend silver paint (front bumper and rocker panel) with the clear coated steal (fake stainless).
...looks really bad.

Notice the awesome seats? The ghey mirrors. The 105 tires?

I do like the rest of the interior and the way the cage was done.

Well, actually if the look they are going for is a WW2 fighter plane with a polished metal skin then having non-metallic areas painted silver would be accurate.

The control surfaces of most of those planes were fabric covered and painted.

Although I'm quite sure thats not what they were going for with that car, I'm not entirely sure what they were going for.

Is it a hot rod wannabee? Is it just a tuner done up as a fighter plane? The wheels only make sense as a hot rod knock off, WW2 fighters had aluminum wheels, not wires.

I'd say with all the rivets, the pinup girl, the mouth and the holes on the inside of the A-pillar they were going for fighter.

Yeah, but thats the current trend in hot rods as well. Bare metal, bomber seats, aircraft controls and levers.
