Gentlemen I present to you the Mitsuoka Buddy a Japan only body kit for the Rav 4. What do you guys think of aftermarket body kits? How badly do they destroy a car's resale value? How retarded would I be to try and get the Buddy body panels imported and make a pseudo K5 Blazer out of a Rav4 Prime?
>>27621268And the rear. I may be a massive autist; but I like this retro look way more than a stock Rav4's styling.
>>27621268I don't know how to feel about this
>>27621268I'd dig one in green or brown.
>>27621268I want smaller wheels with fatter tires on it and a roof rack with fog lights and yeah I could dig it.
>>27621268Transgender cars now?Hot
>>27621268>MitsuokaThey also make a C2 Corvette body kit for the Miata they call the Rock Star.Is there anyone in here in America doing cool shit like this? I hate modern car styling so much.
>>27621293
>>27621268>>27621271it looks retarded even if the RAV4 is atrocious, good luck if you ever get in a crash too
>>27621294that looks more reminiscent of some classic bimmer than a vette in the front even if the tail is pure vette
>>27621268Looks like a squarebody had some yellow fever.
>>27621268Doesn't work with the roof/pillars at all. This is an abomination compared to the Bronco. >>27621294The Miata is a lot more transformable because there's just not a lot to the car, and the windshield and doors are very neutrally styled.
>>27621268I'm just glad they went with steelies and knobby tires, just that sells the vintage style way more. It's a shame the roofline is still so obviously RAV4
>>27621306>Bronco.Ecotech
>>27621268Looks better than any japcrap Ive seen here in the states

>>27621298Rare non-awful stonetoss comic
>>27621426shut up commie
>>27621268I like some of Mitsuoka's creations including the NC Mx-5 based Himiko pictured.
>>27621434Low IQ post
Really like owning my Pit Crew Racing restyled Mazda.
>>27621268>>27621271Give it asymmetric headlights and it looks like something out of Cyberpunk 2077
>>27621306>This is an abominationNo, THIS is an abomination.
One of Mitsuoka's most famous cars, the Orochi Evangelion
Liberty Walk offer a widebody kit for the Orochi now.
>>27621466I hate the paint; but the body work is neat.
>>27621268It's so fucking close to being good looking, but the goddamn plastic trim and poor bumper placement ruin it. If the chrome bumpers sat lower to actually frame the bottom of the body if would be absolute fucking automotive kino. Holy shit.
>>27621268It'll destroy resale value.>I just won't sell itIf your car is ever totaled or stolen, the payout is based on resale value.
>>27621268
>>27621268I hope the next design generation goes back to stuff like this. I hate most modern design and I miss chrome.
Mitsuoka Dore may appeal to Burgers more. Can you guess what it's based on?
>>27623485I remember that thing from The Grand Tour. I forgot what it was based off of, if I recall it was something pretty benign like a Camry.
>>27623506>what it was based off ofFox body Mustang. This is the Silvia based Mitsuoka Le Seyde
>>27623515>This is the Silvia based Mitsuoka Le SeydeI think that was the one they had on Grand Tour because I remember it having some unexpectedly dinky engine.
>>27623485Not so fond of the Neo-Classic cars, just posted because American based. Here's the 2019 View-T, much more my cup of tea.
>>27623548I dig it, looks like an old Jag. I wish there was some company out there doing something different like this. Everything is so boring these days.
>>27621268Thank God for WWII
>>27623515lol imagine being so tasteless you copy a tasteless bad copy, 2 nukes weren't enough
>>27623808It's just like America copying Mercedes Benz cars.
>>27623866>MercedesYou're not familiar with Dusenberg I see.
>>27623876Watched Leno before, am familiar. Duesenburg grille is like a 32 Ford. Excalibur is a Mercedes Benz copy/tribute.
For me, it's the kei vans.
Do you think anybody will belive it's a Rolls?
>>27624273This pleases me
>>27624165This one is for THE a TEAM?

>>27621268since there are companies doing this i wish there was someone making universal pop up headlights retrofit kits.
>>27624279I want to believe
>>27621446You don't own a miata carlos...
>>27625881>You don't own a miata carlos...What does that mean?
Body kits never look good in person. The shit never lines up and the paint usually comes out weird
>>27621439ok this is based. I want to put a massive crate engine in it
>>27625746Little D, kek
>>27623884>the absolute size of those headlightsmy dude that's like a magnifying glass
>>27625898Now that I see the hood line and the front fascia lines I can't un-see it. Makes what could have almost been a good conversion into, you still have the Miata hood. No bueno, in case Carlos reads this.
>>27625946Reminds me of the worst nickname in sports history. There used to be a MLB pitcher for the Diamondbacks named Randy Johnson, he was really tall and they called him "The Big Unit". But that wasn't the worst nickname, the worst nickame belonged to another pitcher on his team who in reference to Randy got nicknamed "The Little Unit".
>>27625387It actually looks like the face of someone with dwarfism kek
>>27626005Rounding the hood corners on the Pit Crew build is a popular mod. However I can't weld aluminum to the standard required and building the corners from glass normally cracks quickly. Could have used a glass hood and made it work, but I'm okay with it as is. It's the only Pit Crew Mx-5 in Oz, so nobody IRL has anything to compare it to.

>>27623548Daihatsu was selling a version of their Mira based on Mini.
>>27621271Are those taillights from those shitty Cadillac crossover things I can't even think of the name of because they're so forgettable?SRX or some shit? I think they're basically a tarted up Equinox.They could be from a sedan I guess or a CTS wagon but they look like Caddy tail lights.
For me, it's the Bedford Rascal Romahome
>>27621298This doesn't make sense.There's not enough correlation between a tranny and an engine for this to be funny.It's like going from human to treeIt would have been funnier if it transitioned to an in-line. Or a fuel injected engine, Or even a rotary.ORIf the dad was a manual and the son transitioned to an automatic
>>27627170You will never be a woman
>>27622260I have agreed value insurance through a speciality insurer. We agree on a value before I pay each year.
>>27626755Reminds me of the officially licensed citroen type H. Saw one in person at LeMans and I wasn't too impressed. Fit and finish was mediocre at best.
>>27627317>agree on a value based on the vehicle being in one condition>mod the fuck out of it>expect insurance to hold up their end of the bargainThat's gonna go well.
>>27627612The insurer has all the mods listed. Only a dumbass would attempt to deceive an insurance company.
>>27621466Orochi is not a bodykit, it's a ground up development by Mitsuoka (with some help from Toyota's parts bin).
>>27628671You are correct, damn you. I just wanted to sneak it into a Mitsuoka thread. Almost got away with it.
