Wow, that is some sick bodywork, some of the best silver spray I've seen. Maybe a little busy in spots, but very well done. Anyone know what those headlights came from? I can't place em.

I want those rims. I belive they are Hartage rims, I know that the rims were ment for an E30 BMW (1986-1991 3 series).

I love the rear bumper, not a fan of painted-out taillights though

you all haters can shut up, you know you all wish your mx's would look at least 1/2 that good. props to owner and whoever did body work, thats real work of art, unlike some other members on here that paint fake c/f stripe on car, hang on daytona wing on back and big school bus blinkers on front and think that they're shiz nit

Someone asked about the headlights, I think they are from a Fiat Punto.
I've seen a few euro cars with moulded in punto lights.

NO! It´s a V6 Gs with a cold air intake and some polishing and painting, but just for show! I saw this car in the "Circuit de Catalunya" (Montmelo, the GP track of the world motorcycle roadracing series and F-1) and then it was red painted. I was shocked on how the headlights looked like, and then I found it on the Maxituning web. WHen I saw it in Montmelo, it was sponsorized by Sony X-plod as a platform for all their new stuff. You can also see the polished K8 manifold from the hood scoop!

Yeah they're Fiat Punto mk2 headlights..
And under the hood as far as I know he placed a Probe engine with intake and exhaust.
