Kahn's "discrete" modification

Hi all,

Have you seen this modification done by Kahn?

Personnaly, I find it very nice because it does not change the nature of the car and it respects its essence.

Moreover, it looks like Kahn team has "only" (or should I say mainly) painted the side black plastic part into red metal color and the result is pretty good!

It gives a Dynamic aspect, but less complicated to do as they have kept the front spoiler and the back bumper (from an initial Prestige body?)

It's only about painting some bottom parts in red and some other in dark grey to get a contrast.

What do you think about it?

RE: Kahn's "discrete" modification

Im getting fed up with the endless number of khan photoshops showing proposed modifications. None of them improve on the original car. Making the lower bit of the front bumper all black (its not a bull bar) makes the car look like a base spec model as opposed to a more expensive modified jobby.

RE: Kahn's "discrete" modification

Just shows what a great job Jerry MacGovern and his team did in the first place that it is so hard for all the modifiers to improve on the original. I haven't yet seen a modified Evoque that screams "desirable" at me, although the latest line drawings from Kahn aren't far off

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.
