this is my mission...

so i've gotten into wanting to hook up my woman's '03 Civic. And after beating NFSU last year when I was in Iraq, I sent her this vid file of the car I made in her honor (pink!!!!!!) So I think I'm gonna do it up.... what do you all think?

Here's the URL to the vid:

Taking styling notes from NSFU is like going to Wal-Mart for your car audio needs.
It's just wrong.

The pink idea is cool.
I only ask that you don't slap on a wing, altezza style lights, and two roof scoops.

haha, you guys are great!!! I don't think the roof scoops are going to be on it. And as far as NFSU is concerned, you can't argue it's a great way to see a car dropped with different wheels and paint and body stylin without going through the trouble of having it professionally rendered and whatnot... the game is actually a great tool. Again though, you guys are missing the point.... is the girly pink civic gonna be badass or what? I think so. It'll turn heads for sure.

that sounds like a real good idea especially if your girl is driving it around. but man I hope you don't have to go to the store for her in a pink car cuz yours broke down or something.. that would just suck.

Thanks for your military service! You're a true hero.

Glad you are back home! Do up the civic man. You only live once and regret sucks. But try to get her reaction to the video. If you go too far she might not drive it, or sell it and you are out of money.

Just remember this project is a money losing proposition. make sure you have the extra funds to throw into the car. I modded my 350z before parting it and it was a pain in the ***. Car became a toy. toy became a liability.

I think pink is good, black out stock headlights, nice rims, kit, wing. Don't get different heads and tails, too played out. You could do other things with the stock ones like tint pink or something. Would look sweet if done right.

and thanks for the positive comments.... yeah, it's her car. And she would LOVE to see it even slightly resemble that NFSU civic. She told me all she really wants is a body kit, some fogs lamps, halo projectors (cuz the halo lights up purple/pink), wing and wheels. Also with a bottom up pink metallic pearl to the stock silver fade paint job. Honestly, not that big of an investment, especailly when comparing it to what I've put into my truck. I can get a sic body kit for what?... $750 or so? Get the wheels for under a grand and then the paint.... not too bad. For some that might break the bank, but I'm rollin' here.... haha. I told her I'd do all the interior mods myself (seats, paint etc.) So it's all good.

That is a nice color, candy pink looks great. Oddly enough, there are two GM trucks by me with a candy pink two tone fade.

If your gonna do pink, do it right... Make the car look clean while your at it.
