To be fair if you changed the wheels to BBS then replaced the dash and centre console back to OEM, it might be a semi-attractive variation on the original design.

No credit at all, nor for any future automotive endeavour or any kid of future achievement of any kind.

That level of molestation runs deep and it's dark murky roots are akin to the kind of sociopathic behaviour found in only the nastiest serial killers.

For some reason, those rear seats were spared, totally unmolested, and look great, whereas the rest of the car was treated to the final solution.

Each to their own I guess...

the attention to detail shows a heavy dependency towards either Classic Ritalin or Concerta XL with Sulphate for that longer lasting hit.

the attention to detail is amazing all it would take is electro shock therapy and he would make an amazing oem '30.
