Not to generalize, but the European taste for modifying an FD seems a bit... different.

Also, what's with that hood? It makes it look like a Firebird or something awful. I can't imagine there's much funcationality behind it.

Well, looking at your pic in your signature, SOMETHING definately appears to be wrong with your car.....ok well several things.....but if thats how you like it, I am not going to say anything. It looks like you have dumped a lot of cash into the car already...I hope you will put as much, preferably much more into the engine....those rims are huge....those arent 19's are they?

congrads on the car, are you going to use it for drift? (i notice the 240 behind it)

in anycase, as for the paint different strokes for different folks. personnaly i like the all white full veilside C1 kit with the veilside spoiler but as long as you like it, who the hell cares what anybody else thinks.

I just got my FD (I've had a 2nd gen for a while) and the 3rd gen section seems to be pretty harsh towards people compared to the 2nd. That is not my style, but congrats on the car and whatever floats your boat.

shifti, if you hadn't noticed, hiryu has a grand total of 2 posts, so I would take his opinion of your car very, very lightly. Americans are not all ******** and neither are the folks on this forum.

Your paint and mods are not necessarily to my taste either, but you can certainly be proud of your car; you've obviously put a lot of money and work into it, and there are a lot of folks who love that kinda look!

How's the ride with 19's? Not much rubber on there!

Sorry, but once you post your pics on a public forum, you are opening yourself up to criticism whether you want it or not. That's what comes with posting on the Internet. People have opinions and will express them whether you want them to or not.
