Because the other "uglyness" on the FD is seeping into the wheels and even though they are not ugly they "appear" ugly....... really that car just needs to keep the wheels. and get a "less busy hood" no more vielside bumper.... and in the angle the wing is alright but nothing i would ever put on any of my cars.....

my $0.02

You guys have to be kidding. That is obviously an rc car...

Edit: After looking at it some more...Im not 100% its an rc car...But Im still pretty damn sure. It just doesnt look right. And the rotor in the back ground looks funky. And the curb in the front looks kinda messed up too....I dont know.

I think it just looks like an early modded 7. I agree though bumper has got to go. It won the best looks at TAS in 1995 11 years later it looks dated and ugly.

Hood looks and rest of car looks old school me like.

the proportions to the surroundings make it look like a plastic or diecast model to me.

That car may have mildy unattractive parts, but compare it to the forum member's Fd (cant recall his name) who has the fugly homemade CF widebody kit that doesnt fit right. Brutal!!

Personally I don't see why so many people like that ugly ****. The only FDs I like are clean, near-stock. OEM variants and nice wheels only. Some hoods are okay... Otherwise you just screw up the lines. anyways that's just me.

VeilSide

I like the wheels and the wing. The wheels don't look good with that car though because of the color.

I had that bumper for a few months. It is a bit extreme and I got tired of the look pretty fast. I then hit an animal late one night and ripped the thing apart. The insurance company paid for my bad taste in the end. :-)
