Well an advantage is if the owner doesn't end up liking it, they can always take it off and replace it very easily.

If I were to do something like this (I wouldn't but...), I would think the roof would be a better candidate. Oh well, not my car.

LOL "The Great Wave" by Hokusai. One of the great pieces of Japanese artwork. Not really sure if I like it on a car. Maybe on a fuji blue civic.

Or you could get an ACTUAL JDM front end .... just a thought.

Shame really, your other build is so promising.

painting has nothing to do with lowering a car. not even in the same plane of thoughts. you don't skip the coilover row in the grocery store to go to the Art supplies.
