yeah man. they melded the pieces well.

but for the money he spent, he could've bought a new IS or crown.

spending that much on a civic = fail.

why is it fail...just because it's a modded civic?

if he bought an IS and had to VIP it...he could of just spent the modding funds and purchased a GS, couldn't he?


"give Jack his jacket..." the owner of this project did very very well IMO, regardless of the amount he spent or the vehicle he chose



however, my only quarrel is the gold JP emblems...should of left them polished to match the rest of the car's accents

Exterior wise that actually looks really nice. Maybe Hyundai should copy it and come out with a similar design?

With these types of modifications its never about the money. These guys probably have more money than many of us here.

The photo is from Thailand. . . we have a lot of freakazoid modders out here. It's too bad that car will get destroyed on local roads. . . and that there was nothing that could be done about the Civic's fish-like side profile. But at least the front and back look great.

Someone needs to stop paying for stupid mods and buy an education instead...

Agree the mods are stupid but why assume he does not have an education? I've seen educated people do dumber things.

I meant an education on appropriate modding.

I have to agree with Phil on this one. And an education would mean more than one inch of ground clearance under the air-dams.
