Default What do you think.....?

What do you think of this?





It is an EA and I actually think it doesn't look too bad and I just wanted to see if I had a sense of taste or not.

Here is a link to the ebay auction

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Ford-Fairmont...QQcmdZViewItem

P.S. The car isn't mine, I only saw it on ebay.

I don't like it at all. Looks a bit rice. The taillights look shocking, the boot still has the mounts for the autobarn rear spoiler, and the vinyls are ugly. And a bright red interior, in a blue car?

If I had it, I'd fit stock taillights with a Ghia garnish, remove all the stickers, and get the interior redone in blue/black
