I like the wheels. The fart can doesn't look that bad either. I hope thats not a black hood. If its carbon, congrats...it matches the wheels well. My constructive criticism would be to get rid of the tailight covers, the grill crap in the front, and to drop it.

Ok well I wasn't expecting all that great of input seeing how I have only put a very little amount of money into my car as of now being only 16 and still paying off my car : ) But I like the way it sits right now. And the grilles will be staying for now because the stock ones were melted by my fogs. And for the hood, I attempted sanding and painting it after my retarded friend decided to scratch my whole hood up on accident (long story) but it didn't turn out very well unfortunately. And how is my car rice? just wanting to know what I should consider changing. But yeah, thanks for the input.

Here's a list of things that I wouldn't have done:

1. The interior paint. It dosn't match the exterior paint, and it's too much. Less is more.
2. The tail light masks. They don't flow with the car or anything, the really look out of place.
3. Front grills. Get some new ones from a junk yard for $5. And don't reinstall your fog lights, get a GT bumper and lights.
4. Muffler. Not functional, not pretty.

Here's what I like:

1. The wheels.

Here's what I would do next:

1. Figure out how to repaint the interior the charcoal color for things like the window crank, armrest, door handle strike.
2. Figure out how to repaint the lower half of the interior a matching green.
3. Get a cat-back exhaust, but not RK Sports.
4. Remove tail-light masking. Or if neccessary, replace the tail lights.
5. Eibach Pro-Kit and KYB AGXs.

I like it, lov ethe wheels, and the interior paint is okay, just wouldnt of painted the handles and vents, but Ive mad ethose mistakes before too, we all go through that everythign should have color stage! And im not sure on the tail lights, maybe wiht some clear and a good buffing they could be cool.

I DO...good; I love the attention!
Hey! I never knew he was 16...hell when i was 16 I had a @!#$box 92 granny that had chrome wipers, and stickers that made me think I was driving some enzo ferrari in a 24 hr lemanz race.

If your curious why I thought it was rice...
*your headlights should never be painted the way they are...
*you only removed half the mouldings (but you couldve been lazy, who isnt)
*you painted the taillights and only part of the filler peice (you shouldve at least painted the whole peice) And honestly, that paint is nasty.
*the grills are ok, but id ditch it
*and your interior...looks nasty, but than again...I hate ALL painted interiors. Id wrap the interior in alcantara if I had the money

Now, my opinion, when you got money:
* At least get a gt kit from the yard and have money to paint it before it goes on
*get rid of the pop can, it sounds better without a muffler
*Lower it asap on a pro kit

didnt mean to offend you by calling your ride rice. Whenever you post pics on the net, you gotta be ready for criticism. When I had pics of my car I was surprised at the most subtle things people criticized.

Hey dude. Good start for someone 16. When I was sixteen I was riding a mountain bike to get from point A to point B; so, your miles ahead of where I was then. When I did get a car, it was my mother's Dodge Omni and I did all kinds of stuff like funky windshield wipers, over the top windshield banners, we didn't have fart cannons back then, but if we did, I probably would have put one on. In short, I thought I had the coolest ride going and it made me happy. Do what pleases you and what you can afford. Best of luck with your ride.

Hey, pretty decent imo. I remember my old 86 z24 when i was 16....lol. Lets not go there. But remember one thing, do what everyone else does, not what you like....lol. Keep it up and drop that bitch.



Re: First pics...Enjoy!

hey, when I was 16, my Cav had altezzas, a big fart muffler (though it was a Magnaflow, so it sounded good), and flame floormats (those were hot ).




To be honest, though, I'd undo everything you've done so far, minus the wheels. I like 'em. maybe tint the tails

Well for those of you who understand where I'm at being 16 and all thanks for the comments and for those of you who are giving me your oppinion and/or crits, I thank you also : ) that is why I posted my pics in the first place to get people's input on which ways to go and which ways not to go with my car so I appreciate everybody's thoughts instead of getting mad at people because of what they think. So thanks again and I will keep my car posted and will try to narrow down all the input and maybe change some stuff over the winter.

P.S. I have been wanting the "clean" look more and more lately and was thinking about just changing the green interior to black. What do you guys think?


Re: First pics...Enjoy!
Tuesday, October 17, 2006 8:59 AM
not bad for 16 i would change alot of stuff but thats me. stick around here and find stuff that you like not stuff that everyone else likes or what everyone else says to get. if you want some honest help any time PM me and i would be glad to help you with anything i can.
