Galpin Jaguar XF

Galpin Jag Front

OK, so who, exactly, are these guys that work at Galpin ?

Are they, what 14 years old? Because the seem to have the taste of a 14 year old, circa 1983. I have this strong, and nauseating, visual impression of an office filled with Member Only jackets and excessively unbuttoned Rayon shirts and way, way too much chest hair and zodiac medallions on gold chains.

You got to love what they trumpet about this, uh, custom job of there though:

“Two-tone paint scheme, smoked tail lamps, “blacked-out” window trim, wood interior trim and matching black and burgundy leather seats and 22-inch, color-matched Forgiato wheels.”

What?

Forgiato?!

What the hell is that?

Is that some wise-assed half stab at trying to be Italian & continentally hip? Sweet Jesus, are these the guys that invented the name Fiero?

For the strong of stomach, there’s more photographic evidence of the aesthetic atrocities after the jump.

    So Galpin made an ugly car look worse. That’s pretty impressive in itself.

    Ummm…what the hell is this?

    To me, this looks like the completely tasteless and insulting creation of a bunch of pathetic losers who threw this together in about, say, 15 minutes. I mean, damn, I could do a better job in 5!

    I support aftermarket versions of stock cars, but if you want to do it, then at least have the decency to do it freakin’ right. An aftermarket conversion should feature numerous nubbins that make the car look BETTER, not freakin’ worse. This is nothing but a paint and wheel color change, with a cheap tuned-Honda looking taillight treatment. I don’t think that I’ve seen a more half-assed aftermarket treatment than this POS.
