I like the aggressive fitment. Just not a fan of the tacky looking wheels.
Size = good
Lip = good
Face = ugly as shit

Personally i think they kill the look of the whole car.

The wheels are gaudy and oversized
the banner is tacky as hell
the rivets showing on the overfenders
and the 2fast2furious front fender vents
no approved JDMspec cage

I think the body kit is 'too big' for the car in general. I don't mind subtle touches, but it seems like a dog with 100% more bark than bite. Oh well.

FWIW: I'm a 'OEM+' owner...I can't stand the fashion 'sense' cars. Oddly shaped and all.

But it's nicely painted, and not beat to shit so it's a toss up. Red looks pretty good on these things.

I guess I can't stand pretty, non functional, bullshit, cars. I'd rather see a car with some battle scars, but kept 'clean' than some big fake dress and skirt on the car and it's only 'red bad of courage' being from the steep entrance to Wendys.

True. I can respect that 'style' even though I personally think it's silly. I do agree that I think 'that style' on that red car looks bad....sort of like a circus elephant in a Mini cooper or something. Dare I say "too much fad" ???

No i agree. Some aspects are a little too over the top.

All in all, its a nice car, i just think some different wheels would make it look better.

the red car would be awesome without the "jdm" banner and just lower , like bring the fender down to the little rim protector thing on the tire. but already judging from the pictures, if he lowers his car anymore, he'll have a considerable amount of camber.... eye dee kay

i go mad for full bn. if the hood (not shown) is BN...i might die.

I try to hold back comments like this lest I be deemed a 'hater'.

overfenders and aero are cool when done with purpose

Now that you have quoted all those pictures... the fit could be a bit better. It's not as bad as "tacky" though.

It's like a 3rd gen camaro with glasspacks on it. Sounds like Bill Elliot's nascar, but is slower than a CVT Altima. TO me with smaller wheels, and without the 'skirt' type body kit it would look good. I like agressiveness, just not 'over done' ness.

To me, I'd love to see an s14 with janky bushwackers on it, and some big meats...that's aggressive to me, not shiney 10" wheels with 245s on em.

Most certainly. I love being a hater, so I'll run my mouth for ya I like functional (dare I say 'race style') I guess, like you. Being that we're non drifter types haha.
