Let's see some clean and tasteful builds
 
Looking for ideas to be honest.

We have a "herra frush" thread, I'm looking for no (or few) stickers, usable cars. Not slammed, non agressive wheels (even on the border for mine being a little too aggressive in the looks department).

The R's Tuning BRZ comes to mind. (personally, I think it would look better with a carsmo, stillen, or 5-axes style wing, but that is really the only thing I would change). It's just simple and clean.

Anyone's car come to mind?

Clean and tasteful is so subjective. One could say that the car you posted is the opposite of clean and tasteful. Bodykit, huge wing, those wheels...

I'd like to think mine fits the criteria. Granted, I've got front fogs and te37's on now.

I tend to agree with you on this point.

@suaveflooder, while the car you linked is really amazing, its not what I would refer to as "clean". Infact, I would consider your personal car to be a cleaner build than the rocketbunny. I will say tho that the took the time to do a great job with the body kit.

Clean builds..... @Jive Turkey comes to mind. His is very subdued and clean, but still leans to the aggressive.

I personally prefer a little bit of "rice" as I am a product of the fast and the furious generations and will always have a soft spot in my heart for the overdone 240sx builds of my past.

Rocket bunny kits look so much nicer when they're properly blended to the body panels instead of being riveted on. I wish the wide fenders would go all the way down though instead of stopping halfway down the tire.

Body kits work, when they are clean. Show this to a 17 year old girl and I bet you she thinks the car is stock (other than the wing, of course)

I mentioned the wing, and TE37's are one of MY personal definitions of clean. LOVE the wheels! They are beyond simple and just work so well on so many cars. When I win the lotto, I plan on running them :D

Thank you for the compliment. I do agree with @jiveturkey. My goodness, his car oozes sex! LOVE IT! Good example!

What are you doing around 17-year-old girls?

It's legal in most states, don't judge.

It's not like they're 13.

Like mentioned above, clean and tasteful depends on the person. My "perfect" FR-S is a Monogram with ducktail TRD rear spoiler, Toms tails, very slight drop, some 17x8 ET42 wheels, a 235 tire. I'd literally want nothing else. Still very drivable, no rubbing, proportions are OEM+ (as far as the wheels and tires).
