could be, but it could also just be the weird reflections you get when you mould 2 diff panels together.

If you go to Trademe (follow link already given) you will find there are 4 pictures. Two of them show portions of the front end through windscreens. It all looks like it should and would be very hard to get right. I think it is real.

I agree. A rolls is also a REAAAAALLLYYY wide car - would have needed extensive panel work...

Why on earth would a seller who has been address verified by Trademe and has over 100 positive feedbacks post fake photos? Get a grip guys....

I did hear some years back of a company (maybe in unzud) who were putting rolls style grills on the front of cars. They got a very official cease and desist notice from Rolls Royce as the radiator shape is an identifiable part of their trademark.

Although it was meant to be in jest, and mayby even pays hommage to Rolls, they took it very seriously.
