WOW you actually did it!

It looks nuts. But you either need some spacers, or lower offset wheels. It'll finish off the look!

That is absolutely crazy. Can't believe someone actually did it (besides the dudes selling the kit).

All I got to show is under the hood (and that isn't much to look at!!) and I don't drive with my hood open nor do I want to. I just wonder what an intercooler would look like behind that bumper. Anyone care to photoshop one for me?

I'm trying not to like it, but I can't. I love it. Panda does it again, wow!

I love the originality, way to take a chance.

I have to agree with Mike and Kevin, I don't want to like. I Really don't want to like it but I find myself sitting here saying wow that looks awesome. And it does. I can appreciate someone taking a chance. You decided to shoot a 3 from half court and SCORE!!!!!!!!!!

I think what really helps is the black paint. The version i remember seeing online of this conversion was white which really threw it off imo but I think the black really made this more subtle and blend in more. Great job Andy!!!

very well done, the 2.5gen is born. Brings together the best of both worlds. IMO, the 2gs has one of the best looking rear ends of any car around, and even though the sharp angles of the 3gs front end don't really blend with the 2gs's round bubbly kind of look, that ***** is nutso. excellent work.
