    awesome look.

    the wheels still look way too big.

    the back flares look like mk4 gti

    im loving the color coding of the spoiler and the side mirrors, top design too!

    LOL

    Idea not awesome or shop not awesome?

    I can't see it being "successful". Prob too heavy for drag racing(altohugh weight transfer will be better). Also probably too heavy for circuit racing and would be very difficult to setup, maintain, ensure it is synchronised.

    Perhaps as a showcase of the work you can do. But maybe, just because you can, doesn't mean you should?

    Edit: Oh, and it isn't a good looking car!
