    Default my s13... new paint scheme.

    well.. i recently finished painting my car again.. i wanted to do something i haven't really seen too much. it pretty much replicates a s13 hatch or a vert. but i haven't really seen the white/ black combo on a coupe. so here we go:













    oh... and i have a wingless trunk too... in case you dont care for the wing, lol:



    and before it's even mentioned... i KNOW i need bigger, more flush wheels... I KNOW i need to lower the front more... BUT these things take time. lol. that being said.. what do you guys think?

    feel free to hate, appreciate, ask questions...

    It looks okay, it would look much better if the body panels lined up.

    i posted this on nicoclub and got nothing but good comments... constructive criticism goes along way. but anyways, they had mentioned the body panel fitment over there and the problem has been fixed since i took these pictures. i will take more pictures tomorrow to show the improvement.

    the gross comment... needs an explanation. im not sure whats gross about it? its painted, unlike most shitboxes out there. no dents or dings... no mismatched panels. all my wheels actually match(though they are small, i get that) umm. it runs. haha. i mean, what does it take to impress some people, jesus.

    as far as the stock body and slam it... why? it's a daily driver, so it will never be "slammed". it isn't cost effective. and i like my body kit very much. especially for the price i paid for it. just wait till i get the wheels on there and some proper fitment. then i think you'll change your tune. maybe...

    i guess some people just don't like 240's. that's cool. to each their own.

    I'm not feeling it at all.

    Don't like the kit, the wheels, the tails, or the paint. Sorry.

    wingless looks way better and im not feeling the exhaust it looks a little small for the opening on the bumper. Other than that it isnt to bad, besides the wheels and the front needing to be lowerd some more but you already know that. Keep doing what you want to do and how you like it.

    Car looks good man. Wheels need to be bigger. But you've already stated that. And please remember, you're on one of the biggest forums to produce jdm nutswingers. Body kits don't fly with these kids. Although the kit is a lil more on the aggressive side, if you like it then enjoy it.
