You need to address this:
Until you do, everyone here knows you are a tool.
Come on, what do you have to say? Don't just ignore it.
Believe it or not, some people don't care about the 'value' of their car. I intend to drive this thing until the engine crumbles apart. And until then I'm going to love the hell out of it, and customize it to whatever degree I find necessary to make it look like what I want. Resale value be damned.
Your tc looks like every other tc I've ever seen. At least I'm trying something different, unlike the cowards like yourself.
The only thing keeping me from ditching this forum are the select few people here who have actually given me thoughtful comments and suggestions--I even appreciate the "your car looks bad" comments if they are backed up by reasons why.
So you can either give me some actual constructive feedback or stop proving how shallow and stupid you are with your useless garbage comments.

What went wrong at page 7? All I did was paint my rims glossy and tint the front windows...
I will say not my taste. The paint job could be a lot better if it didn't have blotches. The Lip you have just doesn't flow with the car its all curvy. idk if you scuff up the headlights but if not i'd recommend trying to restore them to look a little cleaner.
I understand your going for this nasty DeathRace looking car if so just take off that nasty lip it looks horrid and it might make the car look 10x better

Are you saying the lip that is on the car now looks bad, or the one I did a concept of? I agree the actual lip on right now looks like rubbish (it IS just a garage door liner...)--that's why I'm designing the sheet metal one.
not bad for 40bucks haha but if you know what i mean and could perfect it somewhat that would be great. The lip you have on now yeah take that thing off. The new lip looks pretty cool looks like something from the movie Death Race id say do it.
are you going for the mad max/rat rod look or more of a whatever comes to mind constantly changing chameleon thing? if you want the ratty look id suggest you dump the wheels and get some steelies, which would also be a good idea for your "rough and tumble" idea, theyres nothing "rough and tumble " about 17s. also do the washer rake on the hood itll take away from the misalignment or bend that it has now from the hit. furthermore small joining plates and rivets where bodylines meet will add to the look you seem to be going for. Whats the interior look like, i hope the interior reflects the exterior
btw if you do want that kind of lip it needs to either be smooth sheet metal with rivets mounting it, or diamond plate with bolts mounting it, wither way it needs to be black

If you want a unique clean look, get rid of the flat black. Use the floor cealent that they use for garages and other cement. That would look dope white with the multi grain in it. Nice and polished, would look very euro trash like what you have going on but actually unique. Went to a car show 2 weekends ago and 3 cars were chalk board... One ended up with I played with chalk when I was 12 on it, I LoLd. Just a thought, I'll take my royal blue with silver metal flake and bronze rims any day but I also love the super clean, super polished and finish look and think a body drop is sexier then unique.

I've subscribed however as I think the it's interesting what you have come up with however feel like I couldn't do it to my car as it would disrupt the lines, too busy shaving accessories off rather then adding them.

Can you please tell me what a "washer rake" is? I'd appreciate getting my hood back in shape but I don't know what you mean.
I really like the plates over the body lines idea... I might have to do something about that. Maybe I'll make some mock panels with rivets on them and stick them on to see how they look.
At the moment, though, I'm going more for the 'batmobile' sort of look; rough-and-tumble but still with nice lines and relatively clean. As the car gets older I will probably make it look more and more mad-max-ish.
I haven't done anything too special to the interior yet except paint everything black, but I'm planning on putting in diamond-plate sheet metal all over the floors at some point in the near future.

I'm gonna need a pic of your rims too... They sounds wicked.
I understand the draw of shaving accessories instead of adding them... One of the first things I did to my car was shave the antenna and debadge the whole car. Feels good, haha.
