      Thats hilarious. Doesnt actually look too bad, to be honest. Not worth the time and effort spent, but definitely stands out from a crowd! I wonder if the portafilter is aerodynamic and lightweight?!

      He could have at least done the whole thing! (splash guard & Drip tray cover!!)

        only a mother..........
        Not my cup of tea. The straight edges and lack of curves and lines look ok in stainless but in black.........

        The switches look ugly on it too. If they could change the switches out for toggle switches it would look better I reckon. Surprised they didnt use something more like this to go with the carbon

          They also do this one.



          $125 mod on both machines. Cheaper than I thought. Imagine if the option was from the factory. Would cost twice that.

                must make the machines faster lol. Carbon Fibre in cars is an instant 15hp gain so both machines must have about 15hp.

                          Either that or they buy skins from the abbatoir. The animal is already dead for meat and doesnt need the skin any more. :

                              Perhaps the skins of PETA supporters who ticked the Organ Donor box on their drivers license.
