seems like you (the owner of the car) arent too worried about it, but i just wanted to say something. im not a fan of kits, etc...but if you/he likes his car and is excited about it people should refrain from bashing it. many people probably think cars without kits, etc are stupid too. everyone has their thing. as dumb as it sounds, the old saying still holds true...if you dont have anything nice to say maybe its better to not say anything at all.

im sure i will be flamed for this, but i just think we should be positive and promote this community...not bring other people down if they are excited to share their projects, etc.

just my 2 cents.

He is free to uglify his car however he wants, just as I am to tell him that he has. I think it is a shame to take the clean, classic lines of a Gen III ES 300 and dress it up like a French Lady of the Evening. He is welcome to say that mine looks like an old ladies car. We may both be right. That doesn't mean it can't be said.

i didnt say that it cant be said, just that i didnt think it necessaily needs to, or should be said. yes, you, like me, are free to say anything you want as long as it falls within the rules and the mods dont get mad. go for it. im not trying to censor anyone. i just dont see the point in talking trash on someones car. it doesnt seem to serve any real purpose other than to perhaps bring someone down or attempt to make them look bad. thats all i was saying.

if someone is excited/happy with the work theyve done, no matter how idiotic it may seem, let them enjoy the fruits of their labor. shouldnt we as people attempt to build up others rather than bring them down? i do all of my own work on my vehicles, but if someone wants to take their car to a mechanic, good for them....thats their prerogative. who am i to question their actions?

p.s. not trying to jack this thread. great work on the car. not my thing, but like i said...its great to see youre passionate about something and it looks like the hard work has paid off.
