A lot of work done - but tacky additions like the eyebrows, "V6" badge, silver wipers and windscreen "ralliart" sun visor do nothing for the car - and if he went to all those lengths you'd think he'd change the side indicators to clear ones.

Other than that the car looks ok - not to my taste - but I suppose as long as he gets a kick off it! :roll:

Got to agree with MFFTO, and thats one of the ugliest front bumpers I've seen on an fto as well...

Rims are quite nicely suited.

Isn't that guy on FTOOC?

Can't say I'd be too gone on the overall look either, front bumper doesn't work... Still though, full credit for effort! I see he's painted the inside of the lights white to match the rest of the car, and good wheels alright. I'd be curious to see what he's done inside the car.

For a 19 year old in Cyprus, the guy has done a phenomenal job - a serious head turner out there no doubt and the dream of any boy racer !!!

There's too much going on with that car if you ask me. The beauty of the FTO is it's natural (and standard) shape - IMHO the only think it really needs added from the factory is a bigger set of wheels (wider and taller), a bit of lowering (30/40mm), a facelift bumper and type-r rear spoiler...... mmmmmm, ain't that CJ's car :wink:

Seriously though, I reckon less is more with the FTO
