There was some guy who turned his MR2 GT into a 308 GTS or something?... That was pretty big... I think...

Somebody converted a Mx-5 as well... as a Ferrari 'tribute'

Yes the MR2 Ferrari bodykits are for sale. I've seen them on a few websites.

Not sure I'd do something like that but I had a brief experience working with fiberglass (repairing motorcycle wheel guards and car grills) and I must say it looks like a lot of fun (I'd rather create my own car body than copy them though)

I like it alot. The end result is very cool. Can't help wondering why...

...if you were imitating a Ferrari, wouldn't you leave the car coloured red ?

and..

...those wheels let it down. A set of Momos that look more like the original would go a long way toward keeping up the illusion.

Isn't it amazing how much bigger the pannels overhang the chasis ? I wonder if they took the measurements from the original ?
