Very much modified BX

Post by AlanS »

Has anyone seen this before?

http://fashion-magic-car34.skyrock.com/4.html

Before you get out the angle grinder and the bog mixer, have a look at the amount of detailed bodywork he's done.
Not everybodys cuppa tea, but must raise the profile of the BX. If it goes as well as it looks, it'd be a firecracker.

More pics on the pages before and after the one it's linked to.

Has anybody seen it in the flesh? (Complete with colour coded spheres) :lol: :shock:

The rear lamps and style of writing on the plates says it all really.

Plus the fact it has mugen written on the side, which is a Japanese tuning company for Honda's.

But yeah alot of work's gone into it - this much is true. Because you couldn't make something look so bad quickly. It needs blowing up (after removing the engine :lol: )

I liked the wheels and the colour, wasnt impressed by the bodykit.

It's a shame that someone has put a lot of time, effort, money and skill into something that a lot of people think just looks bloody stupid.

People like Sbarro have been making a living out of doing things like that for years.
Personally, I think that it's from outlandish things like this that the cars of tomorrow are devised. Not in their entirety but just a bit here and there off every one that gets done over. After all, who would have thought 40 years ago when large tail fins and chrome bumpers and strips hanging off everything that came out of every factory, that we'd see colour coded door handles and bumpers, plastic bumpers and cars with a rounded rather than a square look?
Ideas have to come from somewhere and these kinds of guys are brave enough to spend the time and money on them.
As I said at the outset, not my cuppa, but I wonder how long before some of his radical ideas are considered mainstream?
