That thing has been around for awhile. Needs to be lowered. The Mustang front end looks goofy that far off the ground.

The front bumper needs to be stretched down a little bit and the front wheel opening needs to be lower like the rear. Other that that, I think it's awsome!

I kinda wonder if it's real, or if it's photoshopped.

It is cool, and at least its done real clean, i wish i knew how to read and understand whatever language its in but the picture is worth a thousand words. I think it would have looked real good if they had been able to match up the bottom of the front fascia with the rocker moldings closer.

i knew what your were talking about when i read the thread title. been a while since i have seen it though. its some really good body work but it needs to be alot lower. like frame dragging low. as it is, i think its kind of ugly. even just adding something to stretch the lower valence so it doesnt have as much ground clearance under the bumper.

not a fan.

like others have said, might look a little better if the front facia lines matched the rest of the ground effects and it was much much lower to the ground.

it reminds me of those aquatic cars, because of the way the front end is shaped. it would look better as a boat.

If you look a few lines under the thumbnail in the link, you will see the word "sursa" if you click that it takes you to another site but it's in English not what ever language that is in.
