Stretched Hummer H3
As if the hummer wasn’t big enough already! If you really wanted the ultimate “stuff the enviroment and look at me instead” statement we think this should be the top of your list.

What a start to 2008 – this is the snow white of the car world. The Subaru Impreza has a dedicated and loyal following.

Continue reading Astra Camoflage styling – if you’ve got it hide it!
Lowered peugeot 306 alloy wheels.
When a car has been lowered and the wheel is just tucked behind the wheel arch you have a good looking setup. This car utilises airbags to raise the car a little when it is being driven making it a more practical proposition. The alloy wheel is made by TSW and it is fitted with a low profile pirelli P Zero and fitted to a Peugeot 306 with full body kit.
The photo shows detail of the bodykit side skirt which has had stickers applied down the length.

Vauxhall corsa Body kit and roof spoiler.
How to make the average looking shopping/family car look mean:-
Spray the car Orange, fit a full bodykit and very conspicuous roof spoiler! For added effect add a bank of 4 chrome silencers poking out the rear (I don’t know why they call them silencers – these are loud! Full Ice install and lowered suspension help to raise this Vauxhall Corsa above the Average and really make it stand out.
