I will admit its a bit much but they're young let them live... Whether anyone would like to admit it or not, I believe any mods we do to our cars cosmetically or under the hood is bound for some form of attention from others... An exhaust, tail/head lights, wheels/drop are not necessarily things to make the car blend in and more mundane.

Do what you like
Hey man, not really my taste, but well done for the project and for doing what you like.
When I was in high school, I put a light-up exhaust tip that I could switch between brake lights and night-time running on my '91 Integra; partly because I wanted a project and partly because I thought it was cool. I caught a lot of shit for it (understandably so, considering that was really the only modification I did on the car and it was pure RICE) but in retrospect I'm glad I did it - it was a fun afternoon project and I learned from it. Would I do it again to my BRZ or Legacy? Hell no. But I can understand. Fun end to the story- when I was 20 driving up to Charleston with my girlfriend at the time, we started hearing a buzzing/scraping noise. I just assumed it was one of my rear speakers with a wire crossed so I continued driving (gf was not impressed). 50 miles later, a woman pulls up next to me and points to the back of my car. I pull over and take a look only to find that the joint between the muffler and my exhaust pipe had failed, and I had been dragging that shitty exhaust tip on I-20 for 50 miles. That was the end of that. At the end of the day its your (or your buddy's car), so do what you want to it. |

Nah, I'm not a fanboy. As an asian who grew up in Japan myself, nothing humors me more than frail white kids trying to dedicate themselves to what they believe is a "JDM" lifestyle. I'd say taping lines allover the car is far from it, kiddo. Anyways, no hard feelings. As long as you're a fan of the original Tron, I can understand. The Disney version was pretty good, actually. |

Good job. It better then drifting your car into a bush or something else stupid. Do what makes you happy. One of my cars at some point will have tribal markings all over it... And I don't give a fuck!!!!!!!

I'm actually really impressed!
I wouldn't do it to my car, but different strokes for different folks. Glad to see you guys getting your hands dirty and working on projects like this! |

I love tron and this is pretty sweet. Actually dig the red pin stripping accenting the lines of the car, nice pop and its all in good fun which makes me like it more. The only thing I am not a fan of is the lines down the hood, would look way better without those but thats just my opinion.
I also really enjoyed the 24 year dude acting like such a tool and crying/internet fighting like your average high school pre teen hahaha. It amazes me how many people in there mid 20's like to think there so much more mature than people who are in there early 20's/late teens |

Not my taste, but I definitely admire the work and effort put into it. As long as people don't half ass what they decide to do I can respect it. I will admit if I did get sucked into a digital computer world I wouldn't mind rocking this car.
