Default Pics of my car at import showoff in hawaii

heres some pics, lemme know what you think. and be critical, but keep it constructive please. afterall, a show car is about 50% what you like and 50% of what others like. so please voice your opinions for future reference, but please keep it to constructive criticism. thanks

I think you'll score some more points if you get that front end to fit a little better. And do something with that steering wheel, it just looks out of place...maybe get an aftermarket one that's color matched.

White and yellow has never been one of my favorite color combonations

hhhmmmm i will try and be constructive here.......if you are going for the show car look....the outside isnt that bad i like what you have done with it.
now the interior is another story it looks like something you would have seen back in 97-98 change that around somethis past weekend at nopi in atlanta i saw a rsx dash in a civic now that would score big points......some diffenrt seats and what not would also help.....just get rid of all the white and yellow stuff on the inside

well, the interior does look kinda old. what would you guys recommend i do? its not paint, its vinyl. i was thinking of doing a whole bride thing with the seats and fabric all around. any thoughts? i know that 90% of people on here dont like show cars but i wanna win one of these days and for the people that do go to shows i would appreciate the advice, rather than just a or

Aloha! I haven't been back to Hawaii for awhile...it's good to see some locals here on HT. I'm not too sure what the "trend" is back home, if it' 2 tone interior and bodykits for the show scene. Like mentioned before, you might want to fix your bumper...tighten it up, fix the gaps, make it cleaner. Not too many people on this board are fans of body kits or 2 tone interior, but if that's your preference, than more power to you! if you're going to keep the 2 tone interior, you might want to change out the steering wheel...or tone it down, change it to black and yellow...you know how type r's come with the red inserts, instead of red, maybe yellow inserts, black seats with yellow stiching, stuff like that...subtle and classic! Shoots brah, good luck with your project, and keep us posted on the progress...mahalos...opi
