I know that cars are a personal thing. But that is a big red turd.

I don't know where they got the idea that monstrosity blimp like *** looks anything like a C1!
Loose the bubble butt and the whitewalls and it's really a well kept clean car.
ALSO: Why are the headlights in the up position all the time?

Who could possibly think that looks good?...I feel bad for that car! I cant imagine anyone even building a kit for sale to the public...a one off build by some crazy person maybe...but a kit?

Yeah...I usually opt FOR the creative talent of a builder and give the benefit of the doubt. This may be the first thread where I've posted in favor of the OP's shock. The execution of grafting an early C1 bumper onto our completely different wedge body just does NOT work. And, the wide white-walls don't work either.

I'd feel sorry to tell the builder directly, but it has to be said. This custom build was ill-advised. If it's really offered in a kit, I'm 100% confident the sales will bear that out.
