Sorry Stretch, I don't like it either, especially with a standard interior, it somehow doesn't look right.

Rear lights, full interior and blacked out windows look horrible tbh.

You stickered up a road car in an attempt to be more tacky, chav, and nasty that the front grill would suggest

I don't "get it" - it's not exactly a race replica, so it just looks like some attention seeking mod - no better than fast and furious style graphics IMO

Shut up Rich

Been meaning to do it for years as it is how i remember the all conquering world touring cars when i was a kid watching them race on TV and as we all do say i wish i could have one of those.This is as close as i'm gonna get. So as i was offered a good price as well to get it so it was done.

But i do understand it is and will always be a road car and have no intention of putting roll cage in but new seats may make an appearance soon enough but then the stickers will probably come off at end of year anyway.

I agree! I think it looks hard as fuck, and I think the grille lends to that aswell...

I would cage it and fit buckets tho
