Liberty Walk body kits and Lamborghini Huracan supercars are kind of common, not in the real world, but as an internet sighting. Yet the Japanese tuning company has found a way to blend these two ingredients in a completely new way. Their fresh take on everyone's favorite V10 is now the spitting image of a racing car.
As we've mentioned in our previous posts, this is the second big version of the LW Performance Huracan. The first one came out at the SEMA Show about four years ago and had the bold-on widebody look, with extensions added directly to the existing bodywork.
This one is nothing like that; it's more of a complete redesign, starting at the front with a much wider and more aggressive bumper. This is followed up by a new hood with double air scoops and extra-chunky front fenders with heat extraction magic on top.
The rear wings don't need to be removed, just new panels added in, which also seem to feed extra air to the hungry V10 engine. Probably our favorite feature is the rear wing, clearly inspired by the Lamborghini Veneno, which in turn takes after various endurance race cars.
Just like all the other widebody packages we've seen, the aim is to install bigger wheels and tires. You see plenty of ground-hugging custom suspension action in these photos taken just ahead of SEMA 2019.
Heat Blue titanium tips look adequate for a project like this, but we would have liked something more original. These are early days for the V2 kit from Liberty Walk, one which is admittedly quite expensive. As we've established in a previous post, this ranges from $39,420 all the way to $59,940.
That's right, you could just about get a Toyota Supra or a C8 Camaro for that kind of money. Of course, if we bought any of those, the temptation to add a widebody kit would drive us to financial ruin.
