I believe that it is supercharged, like that black one from last year.

Unique about this one is the trunklid. Looks really good IMO. Not quite as extreme as the CSL trunklid.

It's not bad--it hadn't occurred to me that the CSL lid wouldn't work, but of course the lids on sedans are a different shape.

Overall, quite a nice job, IMO. It's very clean. The flares do look a bit abrupt but other than that, a well-executed transformation.

Now there's an example of a nicely executed custom. I assume the missing ///M badge is intentional.
