I saw that too....Not that bad but the chrome rims are a bit much.

And believe it or not but that whole Lorinser package(rims,tires,bodykit,paint/install) would cost roughly 20K

Well, in defense of the car it's not bad until one gets to the front fender. Some may like it, it's just WAY over the top for me. But cars are individual, I suppose mine may be thought WAY boring for others

Way too many air vents and louvers all over the place. But the overall shape is stilll a handsome one. And pretty hard to mess up with a body kit.

Those fenders are so cheesy... And the rims... and the skirts... and the whatever you call the thing on top of the rear window...

I like the rest of the car, though! :p
