The distinction I see is that none of the things you mention alters the
appearance of the car. Well, the Miata seats do change it somewhat, but
nowhere near as drastically as that poor thing on Craigslist.
IMO, if he simply hadn't called it a "Triumph", the uproar would be much
less. Judged on its own merits, it's not all that bad (again IMO).
But somehow, the headlights and taillights remind me of those "Why dogs
attack their owners" photos, with a long-suffering family pet dressed up in
gaudy people clothes and only it's eyes, nose and tail still visibly
original.
