Nice work, would love to see more of the build process like you showed with the Honda. I'm sorry to say that the front grill, roof scoop and rear spoiler aren't my taste. The roof scoop looks tacked on compared to the outstanding quality of the rest of the vehicle due to the seams and the rear spoiler seems too thick for the vehicle, a thinner wing may have had a more unifying appearance. When I saw the grill I immediately thought of Mitsubishi Evo VIII. Love the all black nose more than the orange grill, gives a more aggressive look.



Love the rest of the work, nice to see you get a chance to apply your education to such an awesome project. I love me a two tone.

Right.

There's a very DISTINCT difference between saying something is not attractive, and flat out not appreciating someone's hard work. I'm sure there's a ton of hours that have been put into this car, but that's not going to suddenly change my opinion on it.

I can fully appreciate the work put into this car, but I'm sorry, it's not that attractive. I'm a firm believer in "less is more."
The problem I had was the fact that you kept going and saying negative comments on this guy cause thats what your comments read like.... if you dont like it... then say it once.... don't bash the guy saying that if he goes to some school doesn't make him a good designer??? were did this come from and... WHO CARES!! If he thinks hes a good designer thats all that matters!!.... This is why there are 2 or even 3 categories for show cars. Mild ... your class were less is more I agree... in Wild or Elite class were his car and mine is... more is more... Its fine to voice your opinion once Zack but over and over again just makes you look like a very negative person... haven't read to many positive comments from your first posts on anyones car... U dont like his work thats fine or anyone else its fine just say it once... but dont keep going on in a post saying negative stuff on other people... people really dont like it and its not good for our community or to get people to post up their new work, they get to worried to be bashed and cut down... let people dream. Just try being nice for a change man... your apart of this community... build bridges dont burn em down. that fact still stands you just dont like flashy "WILD" cars. I think we all get that by now

Right, and your comment was YUK at the first place. Doesn't sound appreciative one bit. It's okay though. Well, I can appreciate all sort of modifications, from elegance to wild. But "less is more" sounds like better leave the car STANDARD.

Thank you. I designed it after the grill, and then cover it with carbonfiber sheet wet layup.

Thank you. The white car you see is from an Autoshow in Singapore. I exported my kit to Singapore.

Sorry if I've been a bit blunt, Drake, but I'm not out to make friends and tickle everyone's fancy, and it's reason #1 I don't roll with a club. Instead I give my honest opinion. He asked for comments, I gave mine.

If you can't take criticism, then don't ask for it.

Regardless, back to the subject at hand. Zero, that Civic kit looks great. Nice and clean.

I used to live in Victoria from 1990 to 1999. You might know one of my cars then. One of them is an Acura Integra custom painted green and first to use the 17" Antera 3 spoke wheels in Victoria in 1992. Then I crashed it I think in 1993. The licence plate was AZURA. After my Integra I purchased a Nissan 300ZX Twin turbo, painted white with blue pearl, Veilside kit and the licence plate ZXTRM. Have you by any chance came across one of my cars bro?

Love the xa and really appreciate all the hard work and time u took o make it look good. Most people that leave all the negative comments are just that.... negative people. They are ignorant little kids that cannot appreciate all the hard work and effort put into a car ( which yours looks great by the way). I guarantee that if all these self loathing haters had the time or the money could not come up with something half as decent as this ride. Like i said u cant let all these hating envious az kids put you down. Oh and keep up the good work.
Im looking forward to seeing more updates on your civic. Peace

The Type R is a vinyl job, Drake. How about yours, is it painted or vinyl? Looks awesome, either way. Check out my latest Civic EK project, Drake. It's a lot of work, but it's getting there, slowly but surely.

Thanks for the comments bro. Unfortunately I didn't take pictures during the process of making the Scion, since it was done a long tima ago (2002). I kinda regret it now. That's why now I always take pictures of the making in progress of all my cars. I'm in fact really happy, to be able to apply my education and build real cars. It has always been my passion. =)

I'm really glad to read your comment bro. I know that not everybody will like my work, and I don't expect them to. But it's just really disappointing when people don't appreciate your work and try to put you down. At least I'm very happy to be able to know nice guys like you and Drake, who can appreciate my work. If you want to see more pics of my work, just let me know and I'll post them for you. That's the least I can do for you bro. Will update my Civic's pics regularly. Cheers.
