ok so the begining of the summer i kindof got bored with the way my car looked, i thought it was too messy too, so over the summer i started on its new look, removing decals, rims, turbo, and watnot....so what do you guys think, ive had peopel tell me it looked better before, and people tell me after....what do you think?

the car looks damn good without the decals (clean as hell) but if you took the turbo off put that bitch back on

I dunno the decals didnt look bad, but its looks real clean now i digg it, but hopefully its still turboed

I like it better without the decals because without them the car has an air of mystery—"I wonder what he's got in there?"

But it's a shame that you had to give up all that sticker horsepower. :0)

Only put the decals if the comapies sponser you. Your car looks darn good I don't see why they wouldn't.

robo1040 11-18-2004 03:03 PM

aahha shit guys, the turbo is one of the things i added, i just put that on last month..thanks for the input

kornsined 11-18-2004 03:08 PM

those rims are pimp

MSL 11-18-2004 04:07 PM

it looks much better with the new wheels/turbo, that space in the front bumper was crying for an intercooler

02civic_rida 11-18-2004 08:33 PM

mexinaction 11-18-2004 08:38 PM

pnoyster2k1cvic 11-18-2004 08:42 PM

oh my god! :eek: dood! i wanna hump your car :hgrin: great job dood! keep it up! maybe a black grill on the body kit would make your care look better! :tup:

robo1040 11-18-2004 09:28 PM

lilravingmatt 11-18-2004 09:36 PM

niceee riddeee!

xX03EXx 11-18-2004 11:31 PM

Yeah your car after is sic. I envy you. You did everything right. Good job, you deserve a cookie :)

However, try to get the trim piece back onto the cf hood. I had to do some sanding, but I finally got mine to fit.

LoganK 11-19-2004 12:20 AM

definately better now...but i dont like the z3 fenders. thats really my only gripe. nice car.

TeRRoRiFiC35 11-19-2004 12:23 AM

taking off the white grillcraft on the back bumper will make it sexy

robo1040 11-19-2004 08:56 AM

about that trim piece on the CF hood, i cannot get that f-ing thing to fit! i think i might have broke it in a rage i had trying to put it on.

robo1040 11-19-2004 08:57 AM

white grillecraft??

Nodnero 11-19-2004 02:03 PM

Much better without all of the decals. Only thing now for the sleeper look is to powdercoat the i/c pipes and paint the i/c black.

Berg_Tomaru 11-19-2004 03:28 PM

Looking clean :tup: I like the "after" version. How about adding a CF hood? :)

def01tones 11-19-2004 03:30 PM

after looks soo much better. all those decals make it any car look too cluttered

you know that defeats the purpose right? some guy on honda-tech had 2 intercoolers and painted one black and left the other silver. the black one ran higher degree temps. dark colors attract heat more than light colors. touch a black car on a hot sunny day then touch a white one...big difference.

PacSmalls 11-20-2004 02:14 AM

i like the old rims better, but the new ones arent too bad..

you're car still looks cool and clean as hell so props!!

bentspoon 11-20-2004 05:47 AM

i would take out the body kit, and put a lip kit, change the rims to rota slipstream 17s bronze, and take out the wing, but keep the turbo, the turbo is the only thing keeping your car from being slow :)

robo1040 11-20-2004 08:54 AM

no shit, thats why i got the turbo
