New car pics

Hi all,
I just got my car back from the shop after 6 months of waiting for parts to trickle in. I know lots of people here hate Veilside, so try not to flame too harshly. Thanks.

Dude it's your car. If you like it then more powa to you.

I do not have an opinion on the doors. I would have to see them in person. That is they are sturdy then cool, if they seem like they are just hanging there (cheaply done) then not cool.

I just can't get over the veilside bumper and the wing. The rest is cool.

Verticaldoors.com makes the hinges. The doors are a little cumbersome to use, though. They lift up easily and the hinges feel pretty sturdy. The gas shocks are pretty impressive, considering they have to lift all that weight.
When closing the door, though, the latch has to be lined up just right, or it won't catch right. Kind of a pain.
It would be hard to recommend them for daily use.

For the love of Christ, why do people continue to put the C1 kit on their car....C2 I can deal with, but the C1 has to be the most assinine, atrocious looking body kit not only for FDs, but any car

Lose the spoiler, front, and hood and your car would be a beaut.

You can buy the C1 on EBay pretty cheap, that's why. Im with AMRAAM on this one. The doors are sick tho
