SEMA 09: Lincoln MKS by Raceskinz

SEMA 09: Lincoln MKS by Raceskinz
A pimped out MKS for...someone
www.gminsidenews.com


Tirrelle Lazada-Smith, co-owner of Raceskinz, a subsidiary of Catalyst Industrial Marking located in Van Nuys, Calif., created a customized Lincoln MKS. The exterior of the vehicle is painted in a pearlescent white color and features many carbon fiber accents.

“Carbon fiber is to us what chrome was to our previous generation,” said Lazada-Smith.

And there is no shortage of carbon fiber in the Raceskinz MKS. The material is used in the roof overlay, the side door moldings, the rear diffuser accent, mirror covers, trunk accent, antenna cover, license plate frame, fog light bezel and rear spoiler accent. It’s also featured inside the vehicle in the interior dash trim kit, door panel accents and custom rear center console.

“The carbon fiber is very strategically placed,” said Lazada-Smith. “It is not gaudy or overdone.”

The MKS also features deep offset carbon fiber-faced wheel rims and carbon fiber exhaust tips.

I like this a lot. Very tasteful and not at all overdone.

Re: SEMA 09: Lincoln MKS by Raceskinz

Yuk!

It looks like an 80's Lincoln after the all the air has bled out of the air suspension.



I didn't think the MKS could look any taller/fatter around the rear haunches than it does already. But THIS adds even more cellulite to the area.

And if that wasn't unflattering enough, they paint it white.

You guys can have mine, I don't want it.

If you want to talk cellulite, look at the rear half of an Accord coupe (whale tail anyone?).

Looks real classy...would love to tint the windows and go for a cruise....
