Even if you leave the plastics off, just a couple rattle-can coats of matte or gloss black makes it look a heck of a lot cleaner :thumbsup:

If it does not look like this........................

Then it is NOT a real Spree. If has been changed from this it is no longer a Spree, but something else. :roll:

I don't believe I ever heard anyone claim that the Spree was pretty. Useful yes, pretty no.

... Wait, so if you swap the engine in a Camero, it's not a Camero?
If I prune a branch off a tree, and hang a thermometer on the side of it, it ceases to be a tree? That makes no sense. :eyeroll: My GMC sonoma retained it's Sonoma-ness when I replaced all the suspension to lower it. My Spree retains it's Spree-ness despite its engine swap.

It's a Spree. A modified spree perhaps, but the noun in is " Spree" , not "modified".
