Lol come on be easy on the guy, like I said the color of the vinyl looks good, but then theres the

1) Logo on the side
2)missing tint
3)missing visor (which is bulky and should be removed anyways)
4)missing front lip
5) overly aggressive looking hood for a non aggressive looking car
6) the monster truck tires that Hoovey mentioned ( i failed to notice since I was distracted by everything else)
7)major curb rash and abuse to the rims

I think it would have been good if those changes were made and the whole car was wrapped but the way it sits now it just looks like....a typical honda

just hate to seeing what some people are doing to these cars. you can tell the earlier model IS cars getting cheaper.

here is my list.

1. rim design and size, can't pull off matte black. looks cheap and looks like a set of steelies when rolling.
2. rims all scratched up.
3. only has front visors, looks tacky
4. aggressive hood, aggressive sideskirts, aggressive rear, aggressive spoiler but stock smooth front bumper?
5. the hood, enough said.

not trying to knock on the guy because obviously he likes it but i feel i have a keen eye for things that look good in general to most people so maybe i can actually help him out, lol.

I like the car...I disagree with the statement above.(sorry jared). Loose those cheap visors up front. If you can lower it a bit more it'll look sick! How about the front lip? People are such haters....It looks really good!

Definitely different and interesting. Just get a front lip, retouch up that front wheel and loose the visors and it'll look cleaner and complete. Glad to see some variety though, keep it up.

your car looks busted. curb rash on the front wheels, horrendous two-toned wrap, huge adverts plastered on the side, bulky visors only on the front windows and said windows oddly aren't tinted, and that hood, no words for that hood. what were you thinking? major wtf. looks totally tacky.
