custom body kit..pics inside

met this guy the other day with a N/A which is an eye catcher.

He custom builds kits and is located in Charlotte N.C.

He actually peiced together a kit froma honda accord..

Front is a from a honda accord, sides are also from the accord, cut to fit, and the rear is froma camry..

The car attracts attention and sits really low...couldn't slide foot under front bumper cause it sits so low..

The front is super strong, looks aggressive and cool.

Check it out..

In my opinion, that looks like crap. Reminds me of the that Honda on eBay posted not too long ago. Front is strong, yeah... strong enough to push snow.

Yea that is pretty ugly. Good job on the custom work. It is eye catching though... not in a good way.

I don't like it! it is trying to make a 80/90's car look like todays rice stuff! I personally like kits that improve uppon original desing not redesing it... not to mention I prefer kits with actual "aerodynamic" advantages!

While I commend you on putting forth the effort to create an entire new front end for the car, I must say I find it absolutely hideous. The RX is an actual sports car, not a honda w/ a fart pipe and 100lbs of fiberglass glued on. At the very least, anything added to the exterior of the RX should at least look functional.

I'm not saying what you did was wrong. I'm just giving my opinion.

A CONVERTIBLE!?! It's bad enough to make it look riced and slow but, a convertible which we know is slow?And what's up with the "marble" paint job?

But I do give props for the time and effort that it takes to do that kind of fabbing.

Fabbing: good
Paint: good
Overall: could be better, but not too horrible
The fact that those are accord and camry parts: unforgivable

its always interesting when newbies post their "really cool body kits" because 95% hit the fan an the newbie never posts again.

Oh well... that bodykit is tasteless. Not sure how many of us could really handle communicating with somene who likes that...

Well congrats to all the custom work!

Can't say I'm a fan of the appearance though...

I wanted to reply negatively....

But I would be like the rest of the forum members..

I really wanted to point out the fabbing..

I agree on the looks also...not my style..

I own the black fc..
