I think that's the best SC I've ever seen in the states.

I prefer BN sports aero, but I think it looks sick regardless.

Do you you have any pics with the BN kit?

i like the kit...the color would pop so much better if you had some chrome or black rims with that rainbow chrome looking lip..idk wth its called but i think that would really do it for this project... oh yeah and take off those lil side blinkers...you asked for opinions so im giving mine...not trying to step on anyones toes..just what i think...im telling you man those rims would make that car come to life!!!

I know most of us would not go with purple as the first color choice but how is this car rice?

Aside from not having an extra exhaust to fill up the other slot, it has nothing but quality parts and it is a much more complete build than 99 percent of the cars on here

I have to agree here even though i am not feeling the color combo single exhaust or diffuzer the car is still top notch. Why would you try and compare a car of this quality to that of builds like "JDMuscle, 1JZ/240sx, CamberSC"

And it will probably out-run, out-turn, and out-stop 99% of the cars on here as well lol

You know what, I've had my Shine kit for about 7 or 8 months and I already want another kit already and the kit that I want now is a Vertex Ridge Widebody.

It really depends on my on how my career plans pan out so it is not going to happen anytime soon.

I personally I think the body kit is really nice for a performance/tuner look. It flows really well for a widebody kit. Obviously, its not subtle and takes away the inherent classy elegant look of the SC.

I fail to see how a nicely built SC like this is called rice.

Not my primary choice of color but it flows and is extremely well done, simply amazing.

I was in Long Beach this weekend for FD, and I was stunned when I saw this car. It was a real treat.

I took at least 5 or 6 pics of this car.

I only took like 12 pictures TOTAL while I was there.

When I saw it the hood wasn't open

But everything about this car was immaculate. The attention to detail and execution was GREAT.

There are way too many SCs on this board that are bland and fail to grab the eyes of car enthusiasts and non-car enthusiasts.

Ex: stock body, stock ride height, MKIV Supra wheels (?O_o?), stock aero, etc.

You guys are trapped in like 2004 or something.

He's pushing the envelope, and in a good way. It doesn't take some stupid animal print or dumb boso pipe exhaust, or some other obnoxious exterior mod to grab the attention of people, the overall car should work together to grab someone's attention. This car does it.

Sure, I would like it to be a bit lower, but that's about it.
