Odd Modifications Thread

[LivingWithGames]

Alright, found another Levin. And honestly, this looks alright, but the the choice of the kit and wheels and color is...interesting.

I wouldn't even say questionable, it looks odd alright.

EDIT: But here's the real deal. Another FANTASTIC Bosozoku car. Man, what a find. This, ladies and gentlemen, is a SA22C, with an 80's IMSA styled livery.

Man, now this is a win.

Love that FB, But I feel like the tires/wheels are too small for the rest of the car.

 

[homeforsummer]

I'm not sure about this, but, I think it's an interesting concept..

Never seen something like that on an alfa. I thought questionable, then again, looks actually well done.

Inspired by, or may even be an actual example of, Alfa's Spider Monoposto concept from the mid-90s:

Upon further look, it's definitely not the original (and not just in terms of the colour!). Front airdam looks bigger and the seat is a regular road car seat rather than a bucket. No little camera pod beside the driver, either.

 

[LivingWithGames]

I never knew this thing existed 'till now. Glad to know!

Kind of goes along with the Iceland trucks, but I also rather like Expo builds when it comes to trucks, mainly because they have function and are badass.

 

[LivingWithGames]

Bloody hell.

Also, you guys would this is questionable, yeah? Well, I kept staring at it and know what? I think it somehow fits. I don't know how, but, it just...does.

Wire wheels and white wall tires, not so old mercdes, but it somehow still fits. Though, that camber on the rear has to go but, I respect it.

Last, a pickup Impreza and, this thing works.

Bought a cheap LS400 today. And now I kind of want to do this....

The bottom half of the car is fine, I think, as that has not been generated in Photoshop.

I'm no expert, but the canards and vortex generators all seem to float over the surface of the car, as does the left side of the rear bumper over the diffuser. Clearly the rear pillars don't belong and there's an awful lot of 'smudge' (or perhaps 'smooth') at the top of the rear valance, and even the flares look a bit edited but it could be they're just poorly affixed to the car. Still, I'd wager it's just a stock or ever-so-mildly modified (lowered with black wheels, but they could've just been shaded so as to not be quite so obvious) S14--heck, seeing the way the tires meet the leading edge of the rear bumper, I'm not entirely convinced it was even lowered.

The wagon part of it is a shop. not sure about the rest. The top car in this image is as far as I could find into "de-shopping" the image.

 

[LivingWithGames]

That's exactly the proof I was talking about to Nessy before. Again, that 'shop was a sneaky one.

EDIT: A-ha! Got a good one!

I'm not even mad, I'd like to have that.

This thread needs moar Itasha:

Speaking of which:

[maxi25]

You can't hate on Remi.

[LivingWithGames]

..I'm in trouble. I can't decide if odd and awesome or just plain tasteful.

I'm crossing my fingers I got it in the right place.

Yes, that's what's you are looking at. It seems, this Hiace was modified for Drift. I've seen plenty of Hiaces but not something like this.

God, I don't know if I should of put it in the tasteful thread...

 

[Fastcarguy]

Im in love. I need it.

 

[INEEDNAWZZZ]

Subarus with more extreme off-road accessories.

 

[LivingWithGames]

While I love those dirty imprezas, I found something unique. @Joey D might enjoy this.

A proper offroad Mini Cooper. Hell yes.

Also this mustang. Probably tasteful but, it's crazy looking.

Flippin' 'eck.

 

[TexRex]

There's a 2CV under there.

Okay, it's a kit car, but since that thread's followed the dodo's footsteps, I thought I'd put it here. I think it's simply stunning in that color combination, but it's still a bit of an odd bird.

 

[el fayce]

Again, Cool for all the wrong reasons

 

[Joey D]

That truck is about 17 kinds of badass, I'd rock it all day.

 

[LivingWithGames]

I apparently had this sitting around.

Finally I can show it and honestly, I like it. Not itasha but, having art on cars I'm sure it counts.

'Kanjo'​

 

[Fastcarguy]

Kanjo cars are absolutely awesome in every way.

 

[LivingWithGames]

Now I know Kanjozoku. Awesome.

Also, as much most of you dislike 3-spoke rims, bu t you can't go wrong with this. I'd say tasteful but since people hardly use 3spoke rims on the right cars, this works perfectly.

And here's another Knajo car, this time a Mercedes! Wow.

And another merdeces, though I don't think if it's Kanjo..not sure.

...A S15 with E46 front...now this is one of my newest guilty pleasures.

I don't see anything odd about that.

Ok, that Mustang is awesome! What type of racing was it built for?

...A S15 with E46 front...now this is one of my newest guilty pleasures.

I think I've seen this one before, unless it was another S15 with the same modification. Either way,

 

[Sage Ages]

The one with turns in it.
