Don't really care for the choice of body kit, but its very clean. What type of camera was this taking with its really good quality. Do you have any pictures with a higher resolution.

I like the rims

wow, someone with a good head on their shoulders. its his car, he loves it. calling it rice is just contradicting tho. rice = cheap, slow, shitty cars w/ crappy aesthetics and wannabe apparel. just because it has a body kit that you don't like doesn't justify it being rice. its opinion.

That FD IMO is not clean. It's way overdone has to much going on.. Every angle has something interupting a line on the car. It's not rice, there's a lot of high quilaity part's but sometimes spending a lot of money on highend part's doesen't mean your car's automatically going to be amazing. The work is top notch though and i bet the car looks good in person. Still good job on the car.

Honestly beautiful car not my taste but i cant hate on well done work. IMO I think the kit is ok just needs to be finished up and molded to help keep the sexy lines of the car the way it cuts off kinda makes it look less appealing. Should be lowered about an 1.5-2 inches which will bring the rims and the body of the car together right now it looks like your looking at a car and the rims seperately. And that rear wing, get rid of it its kinda goddy like a 90lb woman with a 5 carrat diamod on her hand although it may look good seperate its a bit much when put together. OOO and one lass thing 99 spec tail lights would make it look more polished up. The individual circles is a much cleaner look which is what your freind seems to be going for. Great pictures.
