According to the owner, they're Rota RBs. Honestly, I think the splitter is the only thing that really throws the whole thing off. Doesn't help it's salmon pink either.
 
:lol: I kind of knew someone wouldn't think highly of them. Loads of Starlets have them (mostly Rota Grids, since they're vaguely similar to TE37s without paying through the roof), although I can't work out why since everyone on the forum warns people away from them.
 
It's mainly because of quality concerns, and just the fact that knockoff brands are frowned upon in general.
 
Oh trust me, I know that. Most owners on the forums have had to replace them after they've become warped (flat out shattered in one case) after hitting only a few potholes. Not great, especially since they aren't actually that cheap either really.

If it wasn't for that weird speckle paint, it would look pretty cool. The F-150 in the background of the first shot however..
 
I like how there's missing glitter in some patches. And on the lower end of the car. Wouldn't look so bad if it was done properly.
 
I had a used set of Rotas once. All 4 of them were out of balance and couldn't be fixed. That's what I get for buying junk...
 
"Lower your car!" they said. "It'll be fun!" they said.

Makes more sense than a faux-M3, because the general population would be fooled by it and actually care

Huh? I'm reading this as "the general population would be fooled by a Chrysler 300 represented as a Bentley;" please tell me I misunderstand--PLEASE.

Sadly not, further source: Dad asking grandad if he'd just bought a Bentley... it still had the Chrysler logos in place.
 
I've encountered some stupid people in my day, but I'm astonished you've found the will to go on living if that's what you're surrounded by.

I live in hope that it's only who I'm surrounded by :lol:
 
Damn. What was that? The lights say A7, but the side intake and door say Aventador.
 
Style says Nissan 2020 VGT knockoff.
