Both the ones Jonte has posted are photoshop jobbies.
The bodywork on the lower one, and the exhausts and bodywork on the upper one. Fairly easy to spot IMO....

Have you had a look at the rest of the site ?...........
There's plenty shots of this one from many angles. Unfortunately - not PS.

Take a look at the side bits on the two pics that jonte posted. They certainly dont look real, and i think they are quite clearly photoshop....take a
closer look at the grills on the back of the purple one for a start. The bodywork on the white car also somewhow doesnt look real. The spoiler is also
held on with 2 very small brackets either side. Which would certainly not hold it there.
I will admit that the one zilspeed has posted certainly looks real.

Somebody has gone to a lot of trouble photoshopping then, the car with the big rear wing is in the background of loads of the other cars, and they
have also managed to get it in the correct position relative to which car was being photographed.
Love the oil cooler hoses in the eye on this one ......

I think some of them are quite cool - at least it's not all go faster stuff on a 1.3litre

I’m not sure if all the pictures are real but I believe most of them are. The Japanese has lot of gathering like this in their country. I assume
they don’t drive around like that! I know they do similar things to their commercial vans and trucks. Lot of chrome bodywork, amazing graphics and
more ligths than a christmas tree.
