Very nice color... But too much going on, the lines are ruined & far too busy = FAIL

Thanks for posting though...

+1 on being a bit too busy. A wide body kit should accentuate the existing lines and not make it too much of a caricature of the original. So far the SL black series and Prior version have done a great job.

Why do FAB do such monstrous designs. each to his own but i dont think i have ever seen a positive comment about a FAB mod on any forum or magazine. They seem to meet with universal disdain. Who buys this stuff? i guess russians and middle eastern types maybe for the sole purpose of parking it outside Harrods in London it seems
