I think I saw the same one on ebay a few weeks ago. I personally don't like it much. It is one instance where I think the mods detract from the value of an original car, unless the seller finds the specific buyer that digs this particular look.

IMO you shouldn't mess with the looks of the SS or KR. I would have to pass on this one.

And he doesn't have the original KR rims either. So even if you buy the car with the thought of returning it to original you will need quite a bit of cash. Called him when the car was on ebay.

Like others have mentioned, a little over the top for my tastes. And I agree the cost to return the KR back to original puts the price out of the ballpark.

Plain and simple - looks like Crap and you just lowered the value of that car by 15 to 20K. You take something that is already unique and try to make it more unique. Complete waste of time...

The only thing I might consider is maybe the Black tint cover over the rear tail lights on the Black/Black cars (reversible you can just peal it off).

Here's another one. At least this one wasn't a KR.
