This should be called the Continental GT Hideousbody. Why can't tuners just leave things alone? It is rare indeed that they actually add something good. I think Brabus is the only tuner I have any time for.

This is very much befitting the mental image I've always had of the Continental GT. I think they should add more air scoops and mesh grilles.
