Default VAD takes on the RWB 993.
What do you guys think about this?
After being the first in the UK to receive the RWB treatment, it looks like they have taken influence from his styling to create an even wider 993.
I wonder how Nakai is taking this. It's a bit bizarre that not long after the RWB work was received they turn out a very similar design.

Here are some pics of the Revenger.
I personally don't like the front bumper.

I feel when you look at an RWB car you can see the hours and dedication that went into that car. Then when I look at this there is no soul, it just looks tacked on there and I don't really like it.

I don't think the fenders are wide enough.

So, this RWB character from Japan has the patent on stupidly oversized and ugly fenders and wheels?
