Even though Europe and America is packed with tuned Lamborghinis of all sorts, they can't hold a candle to what the crazy folks in Japan are doing. Just take this custom Lamborghini Gallardo Spider we discovered, which after receiving its makeover now looks like something the Yakuza would own.
Now, the Gallardo Spyder together with the rest of its siblings went out of production last year and were replaced by the Huracan. But there's a whole community in Japan that loves to tune classic Lambos and from the looks of things the Spyder is in good hands..

We've really been struggling with the name of the project, which translates from Japanese into English as "World's Strongest Moroboshi Family Chieftain". This appears to be an undocumented "gang" that calls itself that in Tokyo who are into these cars. Morohoshi-san is their leader, a hero of the underground who's often seen in the company of tattooed, tough looking gangster types. He officially own a Murcielago LP 670-4 Super Veloce in this style, but we can't confirm if this blue Gallardo is his as well.

The blue wrap has a large metallic flake in it, which looks like galvanized metal. On top of that, there's a layer of clear blue tint and over some panels leopard print. Because nothing says you've got money like the skin of a wild animal. The popular tron theme is then used on lines that mark panel gaps or creases. And yes, those lines do glow in the dark.

The pièce de résistance is the new set of wheels, Forgiato's Martellato-M, imported from American and plated with 24 karat gold (as in real gold). We'll just leave the cost of this project down to your imagination.
