Rep Power: 233 My first thought was..."Whoa! That's.....different..." I can't say I love it, but I can't say I hate it because it's a cool idea. Personally, I think the bright green stands out so much it make it look a little 'off-balance'. If I had done that, I would have probably went with a silver or blue color.

Rep Power: 0 why would god let this kinda thing happen? I mean, way to go! I'm always babbling about free thought and so I'm gonna stay aware of contradicting myself. I know that we're all about personalizing our cars, but if your car is a reflection of your personality then...nevermind. do what you feel and like what you do.

Rep Power: 237 Thanks for all the replies, good and bad, i knew not many would like it, like i said before but hey I wanted it to stand out and not look like every other car i have seen. I know the rest is stock but i am on a limited budget so only a little at a time can be done.

Rep Power: 271 There's no way you really want to know what people think....cause everyone here has been real nice in holding back what they would really say if they saw your car on the street.....but hey your car....... do what you like, I'm glad you like it but you should know better than to ask the typically "clean" loving 7th gener's
+1 for being very, very brave

Rep Power: 218 Damn dawg, that is definately different!
but hey man, you might be on to something after some wheels,a drop, and maybe a dropkick in the *** of the guy who painted that car...... joking!
seriously though, i think you might be alright after some rims bro. good luck with the rest of your project man

Rep Power: 296 im gonna be the a$$hole since everyone else is holding back . dude, that thiing is hideous. why do so many people like that kit so much? it doesnt flow with the car at all. what the hell made you choose green? a car doesnt have to look retarded to stand out. i have an ssm sedan, the most common car known to this universe, but i dont have green flames shooting out of my tailpipe to grab attention. when a car is done right, people will appriciate it. the green lantern should come out and pimp slap you for messing up that color scheme.

Rep Power: 278 i think ill also state my true opinion. that is as rice as it gets. if i saw that car on the road i would snap several pics and post them in the ricer thread. and when we made eye contact i would be sure to let you see me laughing at your car. may be harsh but in reality it looks horrible. i mean the body shop didnt even do a good job painting. you should have invested that money into other mods like wheels or a drop. i hate big body kits as it is and this just takes the cake. IMO horrible man strip it and sell the kit and use the money for better looking mods. i am not joking when i say i would pull up to you and laugh. everytime i see a riced out car like that those are my actions. soory man i know its your car and i really hope you like it because you will probably get allsorts of crap from people here for it too......

Rep Power: 218 Damn......everyone is chopin this dudes nuts!!!
give him some friendly advise instead! here, i'll start......
dude,go to your local hardware store and grab a can of black spray paint (maybe 5-10 bucks). everything that you see thats green on that car spray it with the black! keep in mind, this is just a temporary fix until you can get it professionally painted. and dont go back to that same dumbass unless its to recoop some of that money you payed for the green. post pics when done....please! and remember, NO TO !!

Rep Power: 275 the green airbrushing on the outside of the mesh looks intentional. it looks like its suppose to make it look like it glowing. who knows it might look good when he finishes the car lets see what happens. im giving you a for being different and it dont look horrible. just not what most people on this site like. if someone respectable on this site did that lets say Drew or Hayz people wouldnt be so harsh on them. i know they wouldnt but thats the way this site is sometimes. now if he puts some 20" chrome rims on there and altezzas yeah flame him cause those are tacky and played out and dont belong on this car. but in all honestly it dont look that bad. i wouldnt do it to my car but i think its al right.
to you man
to you man

Not arguing with your post Cenz, just adding to it.

Rep Power: 275 i know what your saying. but now say Drew (im only using him as an example cause everyone knows his car) went out tomorrow and decided to do this. everyone would support him. no park bench or anything. just some mesh grille with some airbrushing to make it look like its glowing. get what im saying? like i said in my post. i dont think it looks great but its not horrible....

But its also about balance too, 20's work on a car with show car pedigree from one end to the other, but put them on my car and it would look like a steamroller.....

Rep Power: 275 hahahahaha. yeah. thats why i say when he does more to his car it will look better. its like that guy from canada with the 19" chrome rims and air ride. everyone hated his car when he first started on it. now people like it when he is more complete. i dont think he will ever be done. i dont know his name something like Kuhmo or something. lol
