Here's a unique one

I found this while searching google for some inspiration for my build (i dont plan on building anything like this though). Whatever your opinion of it, it definitely seems well executed. I quite like it. I would probably change the mirrors though. What do you guys thing?

With all that flat black, it looks like something out of Batman.

I gotta admit--that is pretty tough looking!! I like it. It's different, but yet very classy and not over the top. I'm impressed. Those front fenders are pretty interesting.

Holy Custom Bodywork, Batman!

There's some real ability behind that work - wouldn't want to do anything but look at it. A real looker, that one.

Overall, I like it. However, the mirrors and "running boards" would not have made my cut. Likewise, the rear "wing" would have to go.

It looks too cartoon-ish to me. I just like them stock... you know, looking like a truck you can haul something in and tow something with.
