i like the stance, hood, lights, and the flared fenders. lose the spoiler and oversized wheels, and that is one tite ride.

Hate to say it but that looks NASTY...
The back end looks like a Cavalier or a Mitsu Mirage or something. Front end looks great, lights etc. That's about it!

The color is cool, the rest of the car looks like ass.

Looks half way decent the way it is, but.......
Picture this:
Paint the car in a dark blue mettalic, toss those nasty rims for a nice set of 18's, smack that wing off the back and never tell any one it was there, and you got yourselves one bada$$ mofo.
Anyone out there wanna photochop this idea????

Props for most of it. Those too-wide rims (or too-skinny tires?) are some kind of German fashion trend that needs to go. I've seen that on other Deutschers, and it looks, well, pimp. I love the fender flares and most of the rest, but I'm not sure on the color. It certainly sets it off.
Last thing that I see all over and don't care for, is painting the sail panels and the mirror attachment. Makes the car look like a crash test mule.
Wing? I'm not a wing man, myself, but this is one of those cases where it fits the theme, and even looks quasi-functional. Note that it is paired with a front end that, at least in our imagination, could contain a venturi section under the nose, which would provide the appropriate downforce to the front of the vehicle.
Overall, very tight, very clean, and like it or not I don't think anyone can say it's in poor taste.

OK has that person ever make a mistake? Oh yea those tires. Looks real good I like it the front is kick a$$. The wing can stay or go don't really care. The sails I'll have to agree need to be black as for the mirror attachments. The wide rim skinny tire thing sucks. The pinky handles have to go also. maybe something like this.  ....Brad

wow, looks like someone beat us to that front end lol. The front end for the new body kit will look just like that. The rest of the kit will be different though. overall, I think thats a badass ST200 although I would have shaved the handles completely and not painted the sail panels. tight sh*t though. and what the hell is wrong with painting the mirror attachments?? Contours and Mondeos all look much better with those painted instead of the stock plastic crapola imho.

I looked at it again, and its still the embodiement of bad taste....Why would someone change the car so much that its almost undistinguishable from the original car? I would like to improve a bit but keep the brand identification,,,Geez, if i wanted a totally different car, i shouldnt have bought a Contour (or mondeo)...Racer looks for cars that arent really raced is gay to me...One thing is to have an aethsetically pleasing line and some minor mods to personalize,,,,but what he did is Frankenstenian....UGLY!!!!
He's chaaarging!!!...(add scottish accent)...
