haha omg. earl schieb did that. my math teacher from school, his uncle is the owner. anyways....haha man you must have paid the shop manager extra bucks for him to tape off your car right. my frient got his teg viper red....hot paint job i reccomend it, the did a **** job taping his car and they painted all his weather stripping and some of his windows. look at the diff painters and choose the best one. and tip them for a better job, thats what my friend did the second time, lets just say they stopped sanding while his car was getting painted this time.

Okay, I honestly don't like it, but if you want my opinion, here's what you should do.

1.) Get rid of that grill.
2.) Get some bigger, better wheels.
3.) Get some plastic cleaner and clean those FTP lenses.
4.) Get a better color of paint, something "non-rice", like a normal color for a car like that.
5.) Get some S5 tail lights.

That's just my 2 cents.

thats the truth but the GP Sports kit makes the fc look like a beast
oh yeah the car looks great but like everyone else is saying lower it and get bigger rims that will fill up the wheel wells

lol, YOURE RIGHT!
at least get wider wheels man, holy crap.
widebody setups with stock wheels looks so stupid.
now you can fit 295s out back and 255s up front, hells yeah, go buy some volks

I think the paint color is okay, but the skinny wheels is just horrendous under those fenders.

i agree with that^^
but its even worse because it looks IDENTICAL to the 240sx in the same parking lot! it has the the same fenders,airdam,side pieces,rear bumper,wheels,vinyl sticker on windsheild. he used a widebody but not wide tires.

im sure the paint has already came off because im sure it wasnt done properly. it looks a little odd in some of the pics, the drivers door has a dent in it that wasnt fixed,the door trim piece is missing. only the front and drivers side taken pics of so how does the rest look?
