Will.i.am Modified A Tesla And It’ll Make You Want To Gouge Your Eyes Out
This Tesla has been worked over by Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas and his 'IAMAUTO' tuning outfit. The results are, erm, interesting...
This suicide door converted Tesla isn’t the only car to have received the loving touch of IAMAUTO (no, we’re not sure why it’s all in capital letters either). Give the brand name a Google and you’ll see what we mean - just make sure you have a sick bucket to hand before you click ‘search’.
While you summon up the courage to research Will.i.am’s previous tuning efforts, what do you think this latest one looks like? The bastard love child of an MX-5 and a Tesla? A horrifying, robotised Magikarp? Post your suggestions below…

while i don’t condone aftermarket modifications on new sports cars, this Tesla doesn’t actually look that bad, and it’s definitely better looking than Will.I.Am’s previous attempts.
The definition of form over function. But it’s not the worst thing in the world. Hopefully those huge “intake” scoops help with channeling air better through the car or aid in cooling somehow, other wise all that drag is going to be INSANE. But the wheels are actually really really cool, but I wonder how the brakes get properly ventilated. All in all I give it a modest 6/10, a couple tweaking and it’ll look like one mean Saleen.
I bet the exhaust note is mental
Even a Prius has a better design
I like it.
WHY.
Ruined. There, I said it.
Tesla should file a cease and desist order against him :-/
Honestly the Tesla doesnt look that bad
