WTF? I'm slightly confused, does this car have those ugly as sin graphics on it or no? In one picture it looks perfectly fine, and then gets pretty ugly from there. I have to admit that he's got a lot of nice products and money in that car though.

It would'nt be bad if it was done in vinyl, you can take that stuff off. The owner had it airbrushed! Whoever buys it is going to have to get the front end painted over

Even the fit of the lights and hood is horrendous. And, the graphics....OMG!!! How could they....???

Thats Kevin Landers(Rotary Resurrection) old car. He sold and the new owner gayed it all up, I think the owner was even looking into putting lambo doors on it. The pics without the airbrushing are what it looked like when Kevin sold it.

The car is also for sale in the classifieds section.

the only thing different is the airbrushing and if you dont want it it can be repainted at my cost. IT was used as a showcar and it is the same car minus a few things. Thanks for being jerks. ALways a pleasure

If I were Kevin and saw that car now, I wouldn't be able to hold back from bursting into tears. That is just completely slaughtered now.

Yeah but it was still pretty nasty. Even for a show car. It looked like a show car when you bought it.

Although it is nice that you would paint the car for the new owner.

No accounting for taste, I guess.

Good thing I am building a sweet FC now, to take my mind off this.

I showed the pics to my wife and she made a face JUST like I posted above. I personally threw up a little in the back of my throat.

Sorry to disappoint you, but the world is full of opinions, many of which you may not like. I think Ted described the solution quite accurately, "grow thicker skin." An opinion is just that, an opinion. Someone will still buy your car regardless, and probably repaint it anyway.

I think you should just make that clear in your F/S thread, if you haven't done so already. Like I said before the cars got some very nice things done to it, but the airbrushing is not for everyone, maybe just you .
