So you rap, but not well enough not to push a RAV4? The good news is that Japanese tuner Albermo has a solution for one of your 99 problems. They sell a plug-and-play kit that will make your RAV4 look just like the Lambo Urus. But because it’s a RAV4 and not a Lambo, you won’t actually need to push it or have it towed for some random reason. It’s unlikely that it will spontaneously combust, either. And unlike the Urus, it gets great gas mileage.
The kits itself is pretty convincing from certain angles, especially with Lambo-ish wheels and a wacky color. The kits take into account the RAV4 OEM parking and safety sensors. This is winning for rappers who are just starting out; a much more sensible choice than a clapped-out Benzito. The kit is decently priced too, matching your reasonable choice of an entry-level vehicle for the start of your rapping carer. The front bumper is $1300, the half rear spoiler is $734, and the side molding is $150, all at current exchange rates. No word on the cost of the pictured wheels.
Yes, those are factory Toyota headlights peeking out. Brilliant, isn’t it?
Seriously, stop laughing. The new Toyota RAV4 is a damn good car. No, it does not have the drama of a Lambo, which is not a bad thing, but it’s no longer a beige, boring appliance. The interior is nice and the new chassis is great. And with the new 2021 RAV4 Prime you will get 302 combined horsepower from the engine and electric motors. In terms of features, the list of what’s not available on the RAV4 versus the Urus is probably much shorter.

So while the kit looks to be of good quality and certainly looks the part, we are not suggesting that you buy it. Even if you have to represent in your field of work, it’s best that we be real these days. We don’t want to upset any Lambo owners who got a Lamborghini so they drive faster.
But wait! There’s more!
For those who are not fans of Lamborghini, Albermo also makes a Ferrari kit for a different Toyota. This one really steps it up over any new Ferrari on the market. It has hypercar-like power from its hybrid setup, five seats, four doors, and a hatch! Practicality, economy, affordability, and reliability – what else could anyone ask for from the Ferrari?

Want a Lamborghini Urus?
No.
Have a Toyota Rav4 budget?
No.
But wait! There’s *
Absolutely not.
For the Rav4 I’m not sure how many people would get the joke, but the current generation Prius can only be improved.
On the other hand of they did a version for the Jimny…
Why someone would want to imitate the Urus’s styling is beyond my comprehension. And as outback_ute mentioned, you can hardly make a Prius look worse, but the goofy smile of a FF, F12, California, or whatever that’s supposed to imitate wouldn’t have been my first choice.
I guess when you’re starting with an ugly car, there’s only so much you can do.

lol, sometimes people answer a question nobody asked.
Looks like you do lose some sensors though:
“This product does not guarantee the operation of genuine functions such as Toyota Safety Sence and corner sensor.”
A small price to pay for the most…unique Rav4 in your county.

It’s phony, fake, borderline ridiculous…and fabulous, too. These don’t improve anything, but I am oddly positive to such changes, especially seeing that Toyota in-house styling tries to provoke more than to please anyway.
Funny enough, I saw my first Urus today on the way home from the office. Followed by an obviously pimped Mercedes wagon.
I just think they should have kept things closer to the family…

It’s so ugly, it almost hurts…could be factory.
Yeah, Lexus has a more refined look than Toyota, but it’s generally the same brand of ugly. At least I tried to rob elements from their least-heinous vehicle, the LC 500.
That’s an improvement for both the Prius and the spindle grille.

I’d take a Dream Factory Blow modded Suzuki Wagon R over this any day
Those are friggin’ awesome. Too bad there’s nothing on this side of the ocean that can be used to create something like that.
EDIT: Wait, some of these conversions start with the Toyota Bb… so, Scion Xb?
The answers to a commonly asked question on the forums for the cars/bikes I’ve owned: How do I make my car/bike faster/more powerful?
Subaru Outback: You want it to do what?
Honda VFR 800: Loud pipes. Power commander. Put the rider on a diet, or buy a faster bike.
Ford Ranger (just about any 4wd ute): DPF delete. (OFFROAD USE ONLY LOL!!!1!!!1!). Power commander/chip. Turbo upgrades IT SAYS MORE THAN 100 TORQUES ON THE BOX!!!1!!
Touareg forums: V6 TDi: Why? Buy the V8. Stil not doing it for you? There’s a V10. No? There’s a little known W12 (sold in the middle East). If you’re still not burning enough fuel, there’s the Porsche variants of essentially the same car (Macan, Cayenne). V8 petrol mainly, some diesel variants too. Then there is the Lamborghini Urus (which shares the same platform and transmission, with the twin turbo Audi engine).
RAV4 forums: Get a… Urus?
Considering how expensive the regular fascias can be, these kits will most likely be found on vehicles with bad CarFax reports at buy-here pay-here lots.
I kinda love both of those. And yeah, the new RAV4 is quite good. That’s a pretty convincing copy of the Urus from the front. Not an amazing looking vehicle to emulate though.
That Prius is almost legitimately attractive.
That Prius – Suddenly Ferrari kitted MR2s and Fieros don’t look as tragic.
