I really love this. Just find a used old hubcap with a lot of real estate to work with and make custom OEM looking turbofans . W hat I most love about this is how cheap it is to make. I just wonder if I can do it as neatly and not screw it up and end up with something awful.

Is this tacky kitsch trash or does Oppo approve?

I mean if you turn up at a track day with these, yeah, it’s just terrible and fake. But if you put ‘em on an old Twingo on its skinny factory wheels can it be considered just a fun harmless experiment?

Edit: Got Kinja’d for the pic, I’ve added it back.

Given how expensive real turbo fans are I say go for it. I mean isn’t that half the fun of the Twingo, that it’s a car you don’t need to take too seriously?

If it’s really cheap, just try it. What’s the worst thing that can happen?

Try the Ronal Teddy design

Yeah that’s the point I agree. I’ve already started looking for the hubcaps. Not a lot of choice for 13 inch wheels lol but I’ll get there.
