Default does my car look weird?

I've been comparing my car's stance with others in this forum. I think it doesn't look quite stock but it doesn't look quite aftermarket either.

The rear looks kinda low ... comparable to L-tuned? But the front looks wtf???

Any ideas?

o2GS43o's car looked like that the other day when he dropped by. Lots of gap up front and less in the back.

Thats what I thought


gs-ireland: You're right about the UK influence, we used to be a crown colony, so we drive on the right side of the road.
