wow, i think that wide body looks bad ass, and the paint job is awesome! Not a big fan of the civic logos, or the way the wheels tuck. But hey its a show car... its not supposed to do anything but look good, and if you fixed a couple little things it would...

That cranberry paint is hot. If I had the $, I'd repaint to that color.

I like the cranberry color as well. I actually like the flames too. But they really couldve kept the rest of it. Hmmm... we know it's Civic thanks for all the reminders. The kit is too much. But the colors are nice.

I'm sorry but anybody who thinks that's not rice is out of their mind. Judges eat it up? Yeah, that just proves judges like ricey piece of junk cars. And there's no way any self-respecting judge would like that hunk of wasted fiberglass.

And if you want to talk from a sheer aesthetic standpoint:

1) Body kit is too long. It's so big that there's no room to lower the car at all (hence the giant fender gaps). Rear flare is nice, but front flare abruptly ends at the door. Plus they didn't consider the front contours at all when designing those ultra-ugly lower front grilles.

2) Flames on a chopper = cool. Flames on a import = lame Fast & Furious clone.

3) Giant wing... how can that not be rice?

Nice craftsmanship doesn't make a car exempt from rice.
