uggggh! this is why i was hesitant to post this here. no one really understands the styling of the car. arts car was not bosozoku. most just categorize it that way cuz they dont know any better. only thing maybe is the exhaust and sorta the bumper. it was missing huge flares, oil cooler and some deeeep wheels(not to mention you will NEVER seen a boso style car with anything bigger than 15's) it was more shakotan and even then the wings were more from a vanning style. i loved arts car and the work was amazing dont get me wrong it's just not bosozoku. and also for those who think they know tires sizes and safety for them heres this.

you're all gonna be like omgwtfBBQ! thats so not safeorz!!! really? then why is the guy drifting the living effffff outa them?


and to answer other peoples questions the flares will stay black because the grill mirrors and cooler lines are black as will be all 8 wings i have from arts car

No, thats not safe. If I jump off a bridge & survive, does it mean that if you jump off a bridge you'll survive, too? No.

I'll say this, I had to fight TOOTH AND NAIL for WEEKS with Toyo to get my 315s on my car because they didn't wanna release them to me since I had to stretch them. Why? Cuz it isn't safe. Just because the guy above is doing it doesn't mean it's safe. BARRELS SHOWING ARE NOT SAFE.

LOLOLOL ok what ev you say i ran a 205 on a 9in wide for a couple years i have a 225 on my 11 right now thats a 165 on a 8 being drifted. and what shop would make you fight to put a 315 on a 13???? remind me to avoid them if they dont trust their work enough to even do that. hell my shop said they would do a 245/50 on my 13. we even tried the 225's i had on the 13's but that was a no go. lol

oh yea not to mention theres a 250 on it right now which it's been raced with. im sitting here with a 250 on it and you had to fight for a 315? come on you really believe ur tires are dangerous? lmao

I'm waiting for the Takenokozoku Dance Troop to show up at a Scion show near you!

Honestly, I hope there is a lot more work to be done. Refinement, fitment, paint and some more fabrication. I don't like or hate the bosozoku style but I'm glad I get to see it from other people's perspectives. Some of them look good and some look like crap. People have different opinions, so don't take anything personal and do what you want. You're lucky you have such a strong following anyone else would have been eaten alive had they done this.

I'll be watching. Good luck.

If things don't go according to plans though can I have the hatch?
