So even in Japan they used corny nose-booger grilles on the early G50. This one was molded into the hood. Alas, all hope of me finding something decent is dead!

sigh....

I've seen those pics in NICO before. Someone posted them a couple years ago; I don't remember who. But I don't think it was ever a NICO car.

That. Is. The. UGLIEST. Q.

Even worse than that guy with the weird faux-Lambo doors and the firey tailpipes.

I give him kudos for doing something different... Those mirrors do look nice and go along with his tuner-esque application.

Change the hood back for a stock one....Make room for another set of exhaust tips out the rear bumper, to bring the total to 4.

Get some sweet Lowenharts with DEEP dish to fill those guards, and it wouldn't be too bad....

Look at the positives guys... They were going the right direction to begin with, but ended up taking a wrong turn....

I also find it amusing that the indicator is broken the same way mine was, until I fixed it.

I'm pretty sure the guy that now owns it isn't on here. He's on another forum that I use. The car needs a fair bit of work, it came over from Japan like that and the guards got pretty smashed up during shipping. It just needs the body fixed up, and some new rims, and would look better with a new bonnet and grille too. There is alot of work there but once it's done it should look pretty good to those who actually like the VIP style. Seems many on here don't.

Man, the panel gaps on this are terrible. Can't praise the work on this one.

i like the VIP style. I really want mine to look like ozzie's. I want a Wald kit all around and some 18-19 inch BBS wheels.

But that guys car is the pits man. Doesn't look good at all. That grille is kinda nice, like a Benz grille.
