Not a big fan of those oem altezzas and damn I wish they kept it black housing. The tails looks nice and the roof in pics. Negative on that vinyl gas door and the emblems but to each their own. Just don't overdoit! =)

Let the people hate all they want, I like the car, and you doing what you can to make it unique. The roof, I love! And I plan on redding my taillights so I don't mind yours being nightshaded. The emblems, I say steal someones toyota emblems and swamp em out

also, order a Beat Sonic Shark Fin instead of the stock one :p ignore the haters and do what you can with what ya got. It's your baby not theirs, unless they offer to pay child support.

I'm no expert on mods or anything of the sort. I'm not even close to understanding everything it entails. But I will tell you this, my opinion of ricing is over-sized mufflers that are way too loud and annoying, decals, and other over-the-top "go fast" mods done by people who say dude way too much. All the mods done on this car appear to be quite tastefully done and skillfully handled. The car looks good. The mods look good. I don't see a single thing rice about it. Then again, like I said, I can't define it for you. That's just how I see it, but I think that's all that matters. Good on night rider. I hope to see even more.

The only thing that really bothered me was that you cut the springs...Jesus, people still do that?!

Sure, all the comestic stuff you did--thats all good and well. But cutting springs just makes you a road hazard. Even if its just temporary.

ChrisOkc8 · 08-12-2012, 09:30 AM

Do you have any more pics further away? I'm curious to see how it looks with the black roof. Also, I saw that your from Houston County. What part? I went to school at wrhs and hoco.

ZeN6 · 08-12-2012, 01:49 PM

The taillights look amazing.

Ive been on a lot of forums but never had near as many people bash me as i do on this one, at first i did let it get to me but now i just let it slide. Ive just always had the mentality of not saying anything if i dont like something.. Oh ya and the shark fin is on its way!!

Nice side shot. Really shows off the tint job. What % of tint did you go with? Mine goes in on Monday and it would be good to have a benchmark.

bakerr6 · 08-22-2012, 03:42 PM

car looks good. Fif you ever think of tinting the side emblems?

Its only 32%, i have usually tinted everything i own down to about 13% but i didnt want the hassle of the cops bugging me with this car so i did the legal limit.
