"S4 w/ Gullwings" for sale ...... anyone ??? : )
Found this car for sale.
Love to import this, but then it'll be a six figure car $$$$$$ since the guy is asking for 8.000.000 Yen
I think this ad says the Gullwings are automated and can be open/close with a reomte ... not sure.

That looks a lot like the Konig body kit.

Jesse James TV show makes it look easy (and cheap) everytime a door is converted to gullwing style. They usually use a lot of reinforcement and don't care about the interiors when converting these machines, unlike the finished look of this 928

This is actually the first body kit I like. The gullwing doors I can leave or take. I'm not a big fan because I like the sunroof.
I think the kit is Oliviers (Jacquemond).

I know Jacquemond did some gullwings, but I usually associate the naca-duct hood scoops with Strosek conversions. Which may be what that emblem on the back is...
Does anyone know the history of those two companies?
Did Jacquemond provide parts for Strosek, or did they buy the molds from them, or what? Some of the Strosek cars are definitely using Jacquemond stuff, and some of the earlier Strosek cars are definitely *not* Jacquemond designs...

Brittany,
extract of Jesse James bio. Also see link to the Monster Garage TV show, where many funky and unique vehicles are built creatively and (supposedly) under $3000.00
"Jesse began his company, West Coast Choppers, ten years ago, in a corner of a friend's garage. He started with no loan, no partners, and built it from the ground up, in the painstaking way Jesse builds his bikes. Now he has over 50 employees, and sells his bikes for $60,000 to $150,000 each, and is rapidly outgrowing his 18,000 square-foot facility. It is there that he crafts unimaginable bikes for the likes of Shaquille O'Neal, Kid Rock, model Tyson Beckford, and Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Shawn Jefferson."

Okay, here's a very loose translation (correct me if I made any mistakes here).
This car was built by a Jpn company called First Co. with a designer Chris Hahn at Styling Garage using 89 S4.
Initially it was given as a first prize to the winner of some kind of Professional Wrestling Contest
