Sexy af

Looked through the thread and didnt notice if that front bumper was totally custom or a brand. I can hardly tell at a glance its a widebody, car was well done.

Looks like someone used MS Paint to paint over that car.
I don't dig the color or the over extended front bumper.

Wheels look perfect and obviously that widebody is done perfectly, you don't even notice it.

Ms paint lol funny....all the outdoor pics are from over cast days matte paint absorb more than it reflects light thats why you get that 'Ms paint effect' in these

Yea never like the front bumper either now i have time so i chopped it up and redesigning it...check back soon
