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!

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

My view:

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

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

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?
