Nice nosejob

No, I'm not referring to the latest modification to M. Jacksons nose, but to someone who has managed to give the 480 a more agressive nose without ruining the looks of the car!

Quite nice don't you think? Anyone who knows more about this 480?

nasty if you ask me.. met this car at a autoshow in sweden called vallÃ¥kratrÃ¤ffen. he parked beside me and the first thing he did was slamming his door open on my car that i've polished for the last 24 hours.. do i have to mention that i don't really don't like it?

Wayne (laserowl) has done a pretty neat job on the nose cone of one of his paris editions hasnt he?
the 'bad boy' slants over the fogs is a different matter though....bit more bodywork required me thinks.....
am sure wayne has posted pics of his nose job.

hi,
the photoshop thing was my work

i made it cos i wanted to see how it will look like if i try to make it in real.
maybe i will try this in spring, but first i wanted to try a new front bumper (something like the volvo bodykit one), because i dont like the hausser one.
here is a pic how the new bumper should look like:

Hmmm, that doesn't look too bad, but where do you think to get these huge Pollux rims?

that lip will create loads of downforce

dont have photoshop, but ive had a fiddle in paint!

like it, but i would take out the foglights, and drls, like this

maybe then put some small round lights in to replace?
i also would put this bodykit on it....basically everything below the bumper, flowing line.....also like the gullwings!!

also like the gills in vins480t post
gotta be functional though...maybe a bit higher up the wing?

nice paintshop
the beemer kit is biG
gullwings are nice tho
as for the coldairintake it can be done but there need to be an extra cut in the sidepanel of the 480 to make it work i guess.
and thats not easy cuz u need to go under the side panel abbove the tire just bedind the batery
ok much easier to make it bigger then original but stil a big job
