Check the rear three quarter view.
When I first read your comment I didn't quite get it ......... then, yesterday I was following a late model 7 series BMW and sure enough you have uncovered the source Bangle's inspiration. Rearrange the tail lights and back a '56 Buick Special into a low quard rail and Voila basic Bangle Butt!
