Pretty cool, side skirts are a little much, but that nose panel rocks! I also like the headlights, I don't know why. I also want that hood.

I agree, the scoop should be on the other side, however maybe it's there to cool down the exhaust manifold.

It is a little much for my taste, but to each his own I guess Looks like a pretty clean car though.

Scoop is in the right place. That's the way they do it for space reasons.

I think the Side skirts are Gaudy, but the hood and nose panel are nice.
The rest just looks like they're trying to turn it into a Honda.

And please loose the shaker hood bit.

The hood scoop is there for a reason. On a 924 Carrera GT the intercooler lived right under that scoop.

Looks like they are trying to make it into a Carrera GT

Pure rice, the side skirts and nose are horrible and the hood is just a cheap copy. The headlights are the only thing it has going for it. Even the wheels are the worst case scenario! It's a shame what some people will do to a beautiful automobile.

Rice?
The font bumper is the GTR Front bumper from Kokeln. It is a GT3 RS front bumper adapted to the 944 Turbo and S2 fender lines.
