hmmm...well...it looks like you've put alot of work and money into it...so, props for that.

I think it's great to have pride in yer ride...but the whole, shall we say: "everyone is gonna jock me" attitude is kinda whack.

Yeah...the front lip really clashes now with that rear bumper, esp looking at side pics.
With the black rubber seal on the front lip it looks nasty, like a dyed blonde with a brown 'stache. You'd be better off with an RS1 lip or somethin'.

I like the interior but I'm not all that sure about the rear. If you can get the exhaust like sprslug_182 chopped it, it would look alot nicer.

You're like about your ride.
Can you be a little more humble.

Anyway, your car body combo is alright.
Rear bumper bottom edge seems a little lower than the side skirts botom edge from side angles.

Don't get your hopes up high because, I don't think your car looks great

I'm not gonna waste time on haters, if you don't like it I don't really care. You guys wanna gang up on someone go do it somewhere else, quit wasting my time I don't feel like reading nonsense. There's nothing rice about this bumper, and if you think so you obviously have no style, and have no concept of what rice is. The bumper is italian in influence and has nothing to do with anything "jdm". All you guys riding around in stock tc's with a painted front emblem and a shift ***, think their car is the only one in the world, and don't have enough courtesy to give credit where credit is due, you're the ones who need to step off the high horse. To the other guys, even those who don't like it, thanks for the opinion. Truth is, I already know it looks good based on the amount of necks I'm snapping now, so if you don't have any valuable input...please, don't bother posting.

BTW the guy who did the chop, that looks nice but it leaves an empty area in the middle, which I don't like, also, the holes weren't designed for exhaust as they don't leave enough room for the pipes. I saw one guy with a blue tc who managed to squeeze the exhaust pipes in there, but they were all crooked and offcenter because the holes weren't designed for it. If I were to get dual exhaust, one pipe would be where mine is now, and the other would be in the same place on the opposite side, I've seen a chop of this setup in another thread and it looks really nice.

Nah, it lines up perfectly flush, from the side angle it also appears that the front lip is lower, but it isn't, they all line up 100 percent flush from the side. I'll get some pics from a little lower maybe tomorrow to show you.

get the hell off your high horse and stop thinking that you are making a trend. Do you really think you are the only one with TRD exhaust and an aftermarket rear bumper? For the record, you aren't the only one with that exhaust. And for two, Im sure someone else who already has that exhaust, has probably already purchased the same bumper from the same magazine. Here is a photoshop that would make the back end look a little less rice.

What are you talking about the exhaust for man? I was talking about the combo of the m-power bumper with the factory ground effects, cleanest look if you ask me. The rear of the tC is hideous stock in my opinion, even w/ the factory gfx. Theres one other guy who tried to change out the rear bumper w/ the factory gfx that I've seen on here and it looks really bad. It just goes too low and makes the rear end look all stretched and huge. Everyone said that this wouldn't look right, but it looks perfect in my opinion which is why I commented. As far as the exhaust is concerned, Its just the TRD, I never said anything about my exhaust being so great. One guy said something about the muffler showing, and I said that it looks good because the muffler is polished. Nice chop, but I don't like it or I would have done it that way, I considered it.

obviously you dont remember what you NAMED your thread...so i'll repeat it for you...

Showoff pics, need opinions UPDATED PIX PG 2!

this being said your GOING to get the good the bad and especially the ugly. If you dont want opinions...dont ask for them like you did. If you cant take other peoples crap..then dont ask for their opinion. There will always be someone who doesnt like what you did. Who thinks its ugly. Who will call it rice. Who cares.

Ignor their post and move on to the next post. There is no need to argue about rice this rice that or why your car looks good or doesnt. This being said, i'll state my opinion.

i like the bumper its self, but i think the whoole thing needs to be lower to the ground...It looks okay, not something i would put on my car.

Your bumper looks ok but I would never put that on mine because it looks ricey.

The other tC with the Drifter bumper look better and more classier than yours.

He's got a kick a$$ spoiler as well.

Its just so cliquey here. One person says something dick and mad people jump on the bandwagon. It can get frustrating. Anyway, if the bumper or the car were any lower, it would be ruined in under a day here in pittsburgh. Can't stay away from potholes as it is, and theres less than an inch between my rear fender and tire. Thanks for the comments and advice though. The title of the thread wasn't supposed to be offensive, but it's what these threads with pictures of our cars are called, showoff threads...

So why did you use wheel spacer if you knew your local area's road conditions.
Take other peoples bad comments like an adult.
