There is no s5 conversion about it, along with the tails.

Uh huh, Tails and Mirrors are S5. Subtle but noticable to someone who's had over 5 FC's of different years/models and dealt with atleast 10 others.


Its a judgement call but I view it as a weakness of character for being "who" and "what" you really are. Deep pride in one's true identity is something I prize much higher than asthetics, one reason I have hard judgements on what is "rice" and isn't.

I think the 'little' upgrades from s4 to s5 were just that... Upgrades.

He's also got the s5 spoiler...

All of these changes look better (IMO and most other people's).

I refuse to have my identity defined by a vehicle. If there's something I think can be improved upon, I'll enjoy "creating" it into something that's more pleasing to me... I think it's silly to be principally restricted by something as insignificant as a 15 year old sports-car. Don't get me wrong, I fully enjoy my Rex, I just don't take it very seriously.

Disgusting IMO.

Ok a nice Greddy FMIC setup clean and looks good. "not very original"
Clean engine bay looks great, after all that work the hood is dirty as a baby’s butt.
Nice job on suspension.
Fart cannon;
Rims
Stickers
E6K SWEET!
S5 tail and others. nice
XS Power type RFL BOV;

That is just what I see when I see the car. Obviously others see semi different here but yea.

You're welcome to have *your* oppinion, such as I am. I don't define myself by my car I define myself by -everything- I do and *how* I do it.
