Yeah, I've got this video on my computer right now but have no idea how to host it for anybody to see.

i hate west coast customs. every car they do looks the exact same: 1) shiny metallic paint in some shitty color scheme 2) latest electronics with features no one would ever use 3) massive chromed out rims 4) wrapped interior/seats that look like they were bought at wal-mart 5) as many subwoofers that can be crammed into the trunk as possible. 6) oversized wings (not nice ones...rice ones!) w/ an ugly body kit

eh no thanks

Take a look what I found.

The purple Fd is hideous. The guy who owns it has been added to my people-that-do-sick-and-twisted-sh*t list next to Jack The Ripper and Bin Laden...

i hate how west coast customs does import cars. have any of you watched the MTV series? they take any civic, or corolla, or just about ANY japanese car, and rice the hell out of it, and stick some 17 inch chrome rims on it, and a huge *** wing on it.. it sickens me. lol. what else was i gonna say..? oh yeah! did anyone make it to hot import daza Oct. 2 in san mateo??? there was only ONE FD there, and they stuck it in some corner where there was no action whatsoever.. and there was only ONE more rotary there, an RX8 with a veilside kit with stock rims... *sigh.. where has all the common sense gone people?

don't let us stop you - but, yeah, as mentioned, is a queen street crash repair car (though there are a handful of similarly coloured FDs in oz at the moment - god knows why) - nothing to do with wcc.

one person mentioned a 'looks faster than my car' comment - they definitely make cars that hammer (google for their website - featues their quad rotor bmw in the same shade) - I know that doesn't excuse them...

just for the record i know that car was not put on pimp my ride it just looks like some ghetto **** they did.... cant say much because i have a high metallic paint job but its tasteful and my rims match my car ( there not chrome ) chrome " racing rims " are ok but no need for ghetto heavy chrome on an fd ...... Im waiting to see one with spinners. Some rich *** teenager is gonna do it and when it happens we need to hunt them down!

Since there is no name plate that looks like the Pettit fiberglass replica of the 99 spec bumper....which would make sence because it seems as though the bottom lip is molded in which would be MUCH easier to do right using fiberglass.

Speaking of which I like the way the lip looks molded in rather than just bolted up. Looks better. Thats a pretty nice car, its 10000% nicer than that pink POS
