The plastic bodykit is more associated with badly modified hatchbacks than supercars. But that didn’t stop Lamborghini, who – in the mid-’80s – bolted the mother and father of all bodykits onto their ageing but previously svelte Countach to make it fit for the Decade of Excess, and in doing so created the poster car of the time.

Previous bloggee RGB900 has recreated the aforementioned bodykit – and the Countach that’s somewhere underneath it – brilliantly in brick form, complete with opening doors and engine cover, and a removable engine. There’s more of the model to see at RGB’s photostream, and you can jump back to investment banking in the ’80s via the link above.
