Chrome 86

This is taken from a japanese blog i came across. It is likely a wrap. 5axis rims + bodykit i believe

I think it is ugly. But perhaps some people here are into this style

I agree, it's most likely a wrap. They did a car on Fast and Loud last night in the chrome wrap. The upside to it is that apparently it also acts as some type of thermal barrier.

Just watched that one again last night. Love those guys.

It looks like a gray chrome on the 86. I like it more than the regular chrome but it's still a lil to loud for me.

From the look of the front bumper, that doesn't look like a 5:axis kit

Its hard to pull off this kinda wrapping setup and make it look good but the design of these cars gives it that exotic look and it turned out nice...hopefully much better in person.
