Its not just the slam and the lack of bumpers that make it,it's the paint finish too.....lovely!

I like! I like! That's VERY low at the front...
Lose the Federal-spec side reflectors for the ultimate win, but I'm splitting hairs. Love the paintjob, these carry off two-tone very well!

I don't think the lack of bumpers is a good idea, they need a lot of that ugly metal work sorted to run without bumpers and look good.

Volvo back as my main squeeze, more boost and some interior goodies on the way.

I'm not sure the front panel and whatever that bulge is under the rear look ugly as hell. Stance is great though.

Have to agree with Messrs. Toaster and Stylez, don't think the lack of bumpers really adds to it, or at least not without tidying it up a bit. Lose the bumper mounts, continue the line under the grill all the way across and it would look better. Does sit nicely though and I love the look of that interior.

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary.

Ahh. Well I can see why he dumped the bumpers, because they are hideous. Could still do with a bit of tidying though. And having read the thread, personally I'd want it high enough that the sump doesn't rest on the ground, but I think he's working on that

I like the bumperless look but for me it needs just a little more work to look 'right', such as losing the bumper mounts for a start. Not far off being a very nice car though!

Sure it looks okay but, by his own admission, it isnt functional at all - cant be driven anywhere. Any knobber can put a car on the floor, take some well-thought-out pictures and call it 'awesome' Sorry, I don't subscribe to the Burrows Fan BoyZ Club - I think he's overrated. His Benz when it was black was nice... but everything else has just been internet momentum. And the cars always look curse word when anyone else takes a picture of them. Now if he bagged it/made it drivable, put some proper bumpers on there or smoothed all the holes and THEN took it on a photoshoot and presented it to the world... I might think it was a nicely turned out (albeit simple) ride. I don't understand why everyone over on SW (and a little on here) is doing little sex-wees over it. Just my opinion.

bring the back down a bit more- that should get it more drivable as itll bring the front up SLIGHTLY. *ssaves pics for future reference + inspiration* always wanted a merc like that, but i'd leave the bumpers
