It looks good enough on first, second and perhaps even third glances.... but there are issues that I have with the overall form of the rebody ( one being the stock rear hatch glass)
and it's ability to harmoniously co-exist as a functional design with the remnants of the OEM FD chassis.

I would have left the FD bodywork well-enough alone. It is so beautifully honed and lithe and unique, it has a poetry all it's own.

Compared to the Gallardo, Murcielago and 456GT, IMHO the rebody looks clunky and ill-proportioned.

All of which begs the question... with a low profile front lip and adjustable spoiler, would a stock-body FD really be that much of a handful at 300 km/h plus..?

I doubt it.
