Where to.start?
Looks like a 'dubber' has got his hands on it.
Arches = terrible
Stretched tyres = terrible
Rims = terrible
Metallic brown = terrible
Driving = terrible

And As for the smoke coming out the arse end....

Only in Lithuania.

I love it! Nice to see a different take on styling, i think the modern 'dub' style really suits the coupe, the only bit i'm not so keen on is the stretched tyres. Way better than all the ricer coupes out there.

Yeah i like it too. Really like the colour combo of body and wheels. Something different and unique.

Looks very nice in brown, don't like the wheels or arches though. Nice up to date colour!

I must say, the colour of body and wheels go quite well in a chavvy kind of way. Flared arches not good though.

Chris Bangle said to us all onto of the Lingotto that any styling modifications other the OE were good in his opinion, it shows the owners passion, just like his own when he designed the Coupe all those years ago.

I see many different styles and changes to the original lines doing what I do, some I like, some aren't my cuppa tea but at the end of the day the cars spirit is always still a Fiat Coupe.

As for Evaldo's Coupe, I first saw this on FB and didn't fancy it much, over the past couple of weeks however the look has grown on me but I'm still not that keen on the colour.

I'd love to see that brown on a standard coupe with a simple LE kit, I think the colour looks great, would look even better on a sunny day.

The wheel arches though should remain fastened to the arches of a 1970's Mini Cooper, it just doesn't go with the coupe lines at all.

Is this a standard Fiat colour? I used to own a Marea that was a black/purple/brown metallic depending on the light. I need to dig out the paint code as that's another I think may suit the Coupé lines

I like some of it,

Colour - like
Wheels - like (if they fitted inside the original lines/arches)
Wheel arches - No, interrupt the slashes too much.
Suspension - like a Pogo stick! Must be hell to drive fast round the bends!

As some have already said, nice to see something alternative. I'd also like to see that colour on an LE kitted car. Isn't the colour the BMW X1 brown metallic? chinny

Front looks good but not sure on the back the wheel width does not suit the back end some how

He has obviously spent a lot of money on it which makes me just not get the arch extensions? perhaps its the must have items in whatever part of Europe its from or is it a V dub thing?
Nello it was on before i think the colour was compared to an audi r8 and a lambo?
