Dang, am I the only one that thinks it doesn't look good? I know there's a lot of work put into it, but it's a really clunky design. Those side fins leading to the door (right under the driver's side mirror) looks very out of place. It doesn't lead into anything, and looks like it's missing a widebody panel for the door. Linked pic below for reference:




IMO a great widebody design is one that subtly integrates into the body. A good example would be the APR widebody for the WRX. You look at it at first glance and it looks stock, yet it has a definite aggressive stance to it. No fenders that abruptly end at the door lines.

I agree with aki. The widebody doesn't follow any design principle that the Civic already has. Then again, I love those really aggressive widebodies on RX-7's that make it look more boxy -- hypocritical of me, yes.

Lol I hate you for making me wait! However, I'll give you rep for being first FG2 with widebody, and for being cool about it too! And for not showing too many pics too early, although 1 more teaser should be allowed!
