Hi Members,
Just found these pics on CarPoint of what is one of MMAL’s show cars from late last year. What do you all think of the enhancement?

Looks ****ing terrible. **** some people know how to ruin a car. If you removed all the crap and put it back to std it would be fine.

Any 380 could have VRX gear in it, you never can tell.
I don't mind it actually.
hy_boi said I needed something to make mine stand out....... That's not the answer though.
Niether is a stripe.

ES (GT Stripes), lowered (rear more than front) ****y number plate, and work advertising. The name on the back of the windsreen might be him.
Stock ES exhaust tip. And I don't know where the spoiler is from???????

Yeah, get rid of the gashes in the side of the car and I think it would look pretty damn good.

I say lose the claw marks, the Panther name, tint the windows, lower it and fit bigger better rims - then it wouldn't look too bad. Obviously this idea didn't appeal enough to make more of them.
Re MR SELL and his rears sitting lower than the front; that's why I lowered mine more in the front than the rear - then the car will sit at equal height. Magnas/380s all like that.

Mr Sells probably got a boot full of star pickets to put his real estate signs on & the back isn't lowered at all!! :bowrofl:

Other than the claw marks I think it looks good, and kudos whoever it was for trying something different.

"Yeah I know, Lets put some GT stripes on the side and leave it sit on the factory Pajero springs....Yeah....That will look awesome"
Has mitsubishi not heard of lowering the car? Looks terrible on the side!

Mitsubishi seem to love making all vehicles a similar height to the Pajero range.

lol So does Ford... I will let you in on a secret to how Ford set the ride height of pre BA Falcons... They had to be fully laden with 5 passengers and equivalent luggage, full tank of petrol and towing the maximum permissible trailer weight of 2300kg and still be able to have snow chains fitted without them hitting the bodywork over the test track. Hence the XF, EA, EF, EL and AU (for example) sitting like you could drive a bus under it.

I guess this is what the car would look like lowered with bigger wheels (same wheels as I have on mine). Which looks better????

Yeah I saw that picture on a wheels website somewhere, too. Lowered with bigger wheels looks MUCH better.

the 380 "panther" was one of the worst looking versions there... the Colt, Grandis and 3-door Pajero looked pretty tough though!
