I don't know if it was a TR7 or 8, but I think it was an 8 by the emblem on the back.

A TS8 or T58?

The only thing "carbon fiber" about the car is a carbon fiber plastic applique. !!

Is this photoshopped, or is it real?
Hard to believe someone would do that and take it out in public, let alone to SEMA

That is what the camera came up with, only resized down to post.

I was not impressed at all see this done, but it was the only Triumph a saw at Sema!

A want-to-be Lamdo really?

i agree the lambo doors just dont do it, he lost it there even for the nonpurist 7 owners. i am glad though that someone is playing with the 7 and using their imagination. maybe when i get my molds done he will buy a real carbon hood from me.

I think that door conversion is popular among some people.
I've seen kits for doing the same thing on new ford mustangs
