This is not my build and I don't have anything to do with it whatsoever. I did however copy the pictures here for your viewing pleasure.

looks like that one. but i think Profil's will look better because it won't be too wide, just right.

OMFG! @ the first X3, and it was the same color as my first x3... lol. the uber wide accent above was my inspiration to go wide body with my beast. I think I gotta move to australia... Tubular frame on a F@#%ing accent!? I'm so jealous I think I might throw up.

story goes he wanted to fit a datsun 1600 shell on the tube frame
shell he had was too rusty and a decent shell was too expensive
saw the excel sitting there, measured it up and sure enough with a few changes to the frame the body shell fit on no worries
