Haha, that was me.

Well, the car isn't THAT bad looking, but in my opinion, the body kit isn't too good looking. Doesn't flow with the lines of the car too well.

Not to mention the lower the ic, the more dense air you will get.

I think that this guy has thrown together a civic like all the other ricer cars and just wants to go out and street race. The car looks ok but the front of it looks like a huge NOSE.

The kit he got for free. People crashed into him and he got insurance money out of it. He then changed it to a 99 front and a CF hood. I told him about the IC but he is too lazy and cheap to mount it correctly. Used to be my IC too. He finally painted his chrome altezzas to black.

We do not know what it runs but its not that fast. Heavy rims/kit with 2 12s does not help. I think he can hang/barely beat a friend's 95 lexus es300. But he does need a new clutch and to learn how to lauch correctly.

hahaha thanks for all the comments...i guess...keep them coming guys and gals
