Check out this Celsior from Black Pearl.



It's a very extreme car overall. The stance and fitment of the wheels as well as the numerous exclusive parts like the special headlights and taillights.

Are there owners out there who are interested in this style, or are people more focused on more subtle modifications?

I personally don't like my car to have an agressive look, bit some people do.

I personally like the the headlights, they look cool on the car.

 

Could not get into my driveway with that front end !!

 

how old is that mag? lol. that car now looks like this:



there are a lot of guys in the vip scene that like the new ag style but not many are on that level yet. personally, i don't like it.

 

Though not my cup of tea, I think it's well done. The only thing I really don't like is the ridges in the front fender.

With that low front end, I could plow snow in our neighborhood - but I couldn't get the tire chains on the wheels and inside the fenders.

 

I have updated pictures of the car, but I wanted to see if people wanted to see more extreme cars, or more subtle cars and I felt that this was a nice middle ground. Here's another picture of the updated paint job:

That trunk pops out to a disco club at night sweet!

Im liking how it looks although its a bit more than I would dream a celsior would be (if i can get one by trade in of my 2GS)
Those headlights looks awesome.. squeezing some 600h light output mod in there must be a big load of change would it?

The picture of the rear really shows the definition if low and wide though!

word. well like i was saying this style has been getting exposure on the vip sites since last season when cats in japan really started going aggressive. give it a couple years lead time and i would expect some stateside builds. we're always a little behind and this is so much custom work.

"... if people wanted to see..." in what context?

 

I liked the Black Pearl Celsior a lot more when it was white. Now it's just ugly.

 

I agree, now it looks like it belongs in DUB mag. Question though, How is it a 460?? Its a 430

 

Black Pearl puts the bar very high with all their builds. I've always liked their work. Sickness!!!

 

IMO Racingstyles is already there.

 

i agree.........

 

I presume it's only for display purposes at that lowest height. How can you drive with 1/2" of clearance? You'd wipe out your whole lower front end driving 2 miles on the BQE.

Personally, I like the "look" on Civics, but not on luxo cruisers. Hey, to each their own...

 

this is not vip to me and to many others that i have talked to over the years but most don't want to admit it on an open forum. this is just rice on an extreme $$$ level. this is pretty much the opposite end of what the vip spectrum started out as. there is a fine line between vip and just to much ice and this cat can't even see the line from where his celsior/ 430 is at.

i like looking at it in a magazine or at a show but i wouldn't even vote on it for best in whatever class other than extreme bling/ice/rice/ $$$ category.

keep the pics coming though, its always funny to me to see how far the jp cats try to take their rides.
