What the hell was this guy thinking? I'm actually surprised anyone even thought of touching an S-Type, most people don't even care to look at them anymore. Mine used to attract stares back in '07 and '08, but not anymore..hmm?

Hmm, well at least it doesn't have spinners and lambo doors. Are those M3 wheels?

I actually like the mesh over the spotlights. Like a 60's period racer.
Not the rest however

Riced out by Disney it appears. The car looks like it has a goofy grin.

It's a European car, so the proper term PORRIDGE.

Rice is a grain nothing more, nothing less.

Winner of the understatement award.
I think you channel Eddie Murphy from "48 Hours" when shown a pic of one of his "associates" with a bullet hole in his forehead, "Yeah, he's looked better."

Anyone notice a resemblance? The coefficient of DRAG on both is pretty high.

Mina gallery was suppose to release the lower LED light kit just like in that pic for our O3-04 STR's. Hopefully by April it will be listed on their website. I was told they have finished production of it just waiting for a release date The front is ok, but the rear end is just horrible! I felt like throwing up in my mouth after seeing that. WTF were they thinking. I wouldn't mind have a slit like that for the air vents on the sides of the car though.

Chris you know that small space below the fog lights of our STR? Well thats where the led lights will go . It will look more or less like that STR pic as pictured previously but with our fog lights included .

If the person that did this thinks it looks good, I can only imagine what they have most likely done to their personal appearance.

Not a huge fan of the overall design, but I do like the hood vents, grills on the highbeams, and love the interior.

My first thought: Is this car for real? Second thought: Gunna hunt down and modify the bodies of the dudes who destroyed this STR. Jon89: LOL! "...deer tick..." pulled off your dog? LOL!

There are portions of the interior there reminiscent of the Bentley Super Sport. They stole a bit ... That Alcantara looks nice when it's new but it's best to keep hands, feet and bodies off of it. It doesn't age well. But it fits in with the matt finish.

That is one expensive deer tick! LOL

I really don't care for the use of the term "riced-out" and I would prefer that it is not used on this forum. I find it very derogatory to Asian people.
Please think of a better phrase to use when referring to cars that have been modified in a visually unappealing manner.
Thanks everyone.
