Re: ford escort (extremly modded) in progress

someone who can't afford a Ferrari so they buy a Ford and put a Ferrari front end on it. Poor man's Ferrari! this reminds me of the pimp my ride where they put the bmw front end on the Ford escort. Sorry i currentley can't find pics of that car on mtv's website.

Re: ford escort (extremly modded) in progress

I am going to agree with AMNES. While the effort and workmanship is decent, the overall appeal is lacking. In my opinion, the vehicle has no appealing style or flow. I can understand some things are overdone, but many of them have flowing lines.

The flowing lines are a design concept. The lines depict an extremely wide flare kit; in a sense of being too wide. (Which I hinted at in the beginning of the thread.) A combination of widebody, and a widened section down the middle creates a sense of cartoon.

Personally, I prefer flowing elegant lines, definate shape, and realism. Thats my honest opinion. You asked, we answered. Think of this as constructive criticism.

Re: ford escort (extremly modded) in progress

^in the very beginning i agreed with mike and how i thought the body kit was too wide, but as it started to shape i noticed the body kit did seem to have gotten skinnier. now when i look at it i think it looks okay but can be a little bit thinner. but this is your car and you should make it how ever you want it. and for the tail lights, how about the ferrari's tail lights?
