They either love everything about it or think the car has been forever ruined and is tacky as hell. I dunno man, I absolutely love it, it looks like a ton of planning and work went into it, somebody definantly had a vision when they took on this project. But that’s not to say I wouldn’t love it if it was olive drab with chrome blazin though. What I especially love are the original alloys being made into 3 piece stunners, I’ve only seen this on a couple other cars, that brown wagovan with the RT AWD rebarreled steelies, and the dude who made 3 piece Ronal Bears come to mind, not that Bears are OEM but making a one piece alloy into a three piece blows my mind. Maybe that’s gonna be the next big thing. Rare JDM was and still is huge, offset with custom hardware and lips exploded a couple years ago, the powder coaters and dippers have stepped up their game, maybe one-off wheels like these are the next step.
if you’re any kind of car guy…

You also have a wide appreciation of all things piston powered (no offence rotary guys, it just sounded good). You check out the drift blogs, the rat rod boards, the VIP cars on Minkara, you foam at the mouth waiting for the first pix to get posted from SEMA each year. And it’s all good, the last year or two we’ve seen an incredible cross pollination of styles; EGs tucking and poking BBS wheels, VIP style Fits, BMW M3s on Volks with Voltex aero, oh and this one 5 series you might have seen around, you know, you’ve seen it, and it’s pretty exciting seeing what people come up with next now that “the rules” are much looser. Yada yada my point is variety makes the scene go around so do yourself a favor and check out the crazy 70’s freak out paintwork by Blue Moon Kustoms. I want to see a champ white 99 hatch, super tucked and shaved B16 with something like this in the bay, the under hood and valve cover this year. Go get to work people!
