hmm.. is this year´s fashion?

I am really disliking the 'cab forward' style, the B4 looks like someone has gone up behind it, and pinched it's butt and surprised the hell out of it!

[schmacher]

for 4wd maybe...2wd no

Damn. that is UGLY!!!:confused::D

[MikePimlott]

They're wank :thumbdown:

[colmo]

That is pure Wacky Races :wtf:

[Adam F]

Why would anyone buy something that looks that bad?:confused:

[Shaun 'TheSheep' Atkinson]

They really are UGLY!!

I personally think, the Cougar shell is one of the best looking 2WD shells out there, why would you want to replace it for this lol

[The Doctor]

My view:

1. they look absolutely awful - a bit like a box fish (see link below) :thumbdown:

2. what's the point? The standard shell is fine and I can see absolutely no performance benefit of this new shape :confused:

I love decent cab-forward 4WD shells (JC Punisher etc), but those in the link above are pure unadulterated wankness....

*gag*

Are there any other cab-forward shells available for the Cougar?
