The windshield actually says TYPE-R the scanner didnt pick it up. When you hooked up a car like that dont you think you would have friends tell you on a daily basis how ugly that shit looks.......I guess he didnt.

1988starter - A1c? I think you mean APC (American Products Company). Everybody and there mother has APC stickers around here, from Civics to Berretas to Caravans and Taraus. It seems that when ever somebody goes to Advanced Auto or Pep Boys they hand them a sticker on the way out. And dont get me started on the Super Street stickers..........

Hey sorry for the bashing....I guess its my fault since I toke the pics. The first time I posted the pics a couple of years ago I thought I didnt look too bad...a little too much but not bad. When I posted the pics everybody jumped all over it so I guess I went with the crowd. Sorry but you got to admit if it wasnt your car youd have a couple of thoughts your self.

anyways, I and everybody else here would love to see what It looks like now. If the 28,700 invested is really true then It should be a sight to see and dont tell me you dont have pics of it cause if I had invested that much in a car I would have a photo album full of them.

Ok, sorry but yes, two years ago you car was Rice. It's not a big deal, that was two years ago. "Fattest thing to bless the 3rd Gen site". You give yourself too much credit there man, I'd take Justins, pearldrops, Oldschools(:(), or Mikes Accord over yours any day. You have upgraded from blobs of yellow to yellow flames, and a neon green interior. I have nothing against you, or your car because you have put alot of time and money into it, it's just not my taste...

Dude if that was 2 years ago why do you care? And to come on here saying that you own OUR dream car is just pathetic, sure it's a pretty nice ride now but in no way is it MY dream car. If you ask me the only thing that wins a car show is the money invested, doesn't matter what the car looks like, usually just matters what the price tag is. Once again, why the hell you so upset when this was 2 years ago, grow up man.

Well COASTER if you would look at the pics of DARK's ride now you would see why there is almost 30,000 invested it doesnt even look like that pic at all anymore. I thought this site was to help and incourage people not BASH on everyone every chance you get. Yea you all have your own opinons but DAMN. Give people a chance. You can give your own opinons WITHOUT being a SMARTASS!!!!!!!!! This site is cool but would be much better minus the ASSHOLES!!!!!!!! .....................GirlieGirl:burn:

I partially agree with you Girlie.....this thread is definetly extreme, but you can see the before and after and it is pretty extreme as well. How were we supposed to know the car looked any different now? Sure both the new pics and old pic are on the board but they are like night and day, literally lol. Basically what I am getting at is that I hope this particalr thread doesn't drive you away. With the exception of this thread everyone is pretty much here to help each other :)

Damn all yall get too worked up over what people say about your cars. Shit I'd say I have about 20 grand worth of stuff added to my car and I could still give a fuck what people think. I build my car according to MY TASTE not anyone elses. Darkhonda no doubt your car looks good now but I think you need to deflate that head of yours so you dont get caught in any doors. No offense meant but you come off sounding arrogant as fuck.

back 2 the drawling board stripped the whole car sold my wheels bought springs(neuspeed) suspension tech sway bars and tokico illum struts

I'd really like to know how and with what part numbers for tokico illum struts. Or since they don't make them for the 3rd gen and you can't use the 4th gen struts did you mean to say tokico H.P.'s? You also can't use koni sports from the 4th gen and you can't use Bilstein sports from the 4th gen. One of tokico's more informed techs is named tiffany btw.

for the record I'm entitled to my own opinion. I don't like it.
second of all, I DID see how it looks now and yes it looks great!
I've seen hundreds of posts with pics and questions on whether or not a certain car looks good or what mods should or shouldn't be done.... so when I throw my two cents in and say NO, IT DON'T LOOK GOOD, thats my opinion. I'm not bashing anything. And might I add... I'm not the only one that think the car used to look not so good.... that car is featured on every riceboy site I've been to. Think of the consructive criticism as advice on what you can do to make your car more appealing, and not take it as an insult. Anyways, the car looks good now... thats all that matters! :stick:

I seroiusly doubt that its the fastest car in this board most of that money was spent on cosmetics justins accord would definitivley humble you a bit on the quarter mile. Since his ride is turbo charged. I respect the car for it looks decent now but you seemed a bit arrogant but I guess id be too if i spent that much on my 3 gee.

i keep reading this post over and over again and all i see is everyone talking back and forth but the dude we are talking about does not talk much. he said everything he did to his car and of course we know it does not matter if u have a ferrari or a kia, it depends on how u drive it and all depends on your driving dynamics. we have seen our cars kick ass with newer maximas and other cars who are known to be fast. So ease up guys, its defenitely not work grumping over. Of course once u put almost 30K into your car, pushing it as far as u can push it, you do expect most of the ppl who look at it, to appreciate it cause its the natural instinct. Are we gonna gain anything by trying to prove someone wrong or incompitent? fuck no.
