fiorano88 · 18th November 2008, 21:51

hi guys this is my magnum sporting a widebody kit...was 4 months in the making but now its finally done...
would love to know ur opinions..

The vehicle looks sweet in the first pic but the second one i did not like the way the wheel arches look. Makes your tyres look undersized.

jkdas · 18th November 2008, 22:18

Looks pretty heavy. Is it the TDCi?

harry10 · 18th November 2008, 22:19

Have to say the front looks Imposing!

Raj'sGlory · 18th November 2008, 22:19

To be honest its different but the V in the front makes it look like a battering ram.

karankapoor · 18th November 2008, 22:20

no offence but somehow i did'nt liked it,looks really huge you could have gone with some body kit.

badboyscad · 18th November 2008, 22:25

Side profile looks good. front bumper is too boxy, please change it if you can.

get some wider wheels and tires or spacers.

Akshay1234 · 18th November 2008, 22:30

looks decent but you really need spacers to make it look good.

greenhorn · 18th November 2008, 22:49

borderline weird and wacky, especially the rear arch.

benbsb29 · 18th November 2008, 22:51

Now that the widebody look has been acheived, the car looks odd since the wheels look undersized. You need spacers to reduce that effect. Also, the design is rather boxy which doesnt suit the flowing lines of the new Optra.

kpzen · 18th November 2008, 22:58

Eehh?! Does it move?

Sorry boss! Didn't like it.
IMO the kit design is a mismatch for the car..
Where did u get the kit from?

hellstar · 18th November 2008, 23:08

the tyres are crying for spacers or have bigger tyres , all this without matching tyres is a real let down ...

IMHO - the stock chevy magnum looks much more dignified.

@jkdas all Magnums are TDCi

badboyscad · 18th November 2008, 23:16

Here, this is what im talking about. Try to make the front bumper more curvy, remove the clear cut edges, add mesh grills and wheel spacers. your car will look complete.

looks huge and boxy. Color is out of place and ordinary for such a modded car
As kpzen asked: does it run? All aerodynamics would have gone for toss.

@ badboyscad : thats one super PS job!! you truely are an artistic at this.
