It's a decent car. WTF is up with thos headlights. I think those are one of the uglier sleek headlight conversions out there IMO.

You wouldn't think about it twice hell I wouldn't even think about it once

Seriously though, I think replication costs are under 25k, guess he is hoping for that person that knows nothing has hundreds of thousands and surfs ebay daily.....

There's nothing sleek about them. I'd say stationary is a better word .

With the exception of those headlights. They look like a cancerous tumor bulging from the flowing lines of the FD.

I have pics of this car at a show earlier this year. It was a NOPI (which sucked, all rice). Here is what it looked like then. I don't have pics of the interior but lets just say there wasn't any. The interior was total trash. Carpet was ripped to hell and everthing. Atleast they repainted it. The silver paint job was garbo, looked like a third grader did it........ But for 40K its a steal.

PDViper77, is that the same bodykit that's on the car now (as pictured on Ebay)? Cuz the rear 1/4 panels don't look as pronounced in the Ebay pics. And I wasn't aware that the Vertex kit came w/ 1/4 panels?? Or are these custom/from a diff kit?

Some people don't think before they mod. I mean i'm all for individuality and tasteful stuff that makes your car different than somebody else's, but ugh...that's hideous!
