Love the workmanship where the top of the dually fenders meet the original (nice) line of the NB rear fender underneath. Jesus, there's a shadow in there in the picture.
If the guy who did that lived near me, I'd go by and sock him on the nose.

Sheesh, some of you guys need to calm down. It's not that serious! I never knew it was such a crime to make a 911 wider and lower

The right fender doesn't match the other side, but, then again, the whole car looks tweaked. I'd venture a guess that it's due to the rolling shutter problem of a camera phone whereby an object can be distorted because of how the shutter moves across or up and down the frame.

You're right, everyone, be calm.

I am calm, sober and thoughtful and find the car in question to be a vulgar, hot mess.

As you were, carry on.

A bit overly dramatic dontcha think? A lot of people don't care for his work, me included.

I didn't know it was crime to actually post one's thoughts on a forum?

It's not. It's also not a crime to purchase an original Van Gough and let your child use it as a finger painting canvas. But it would make you an *******.

I'm beginning to think that this exaggerated kind of styling may be a cultural thing (perhaps with tongue planted firmly in cheek?):
