00 Civic (EK Hatch) :Hardparking Status: v2

[Batmang]

Hello all, well heres my hatch. I posted this in the Civic Meet thread, so some of you may have seen this before, but now its done....for now. Like i said in the other thread this is v2 on this kit. Original Thread - http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=487797

So basically, i wanted to build a road race EK. Some things i made sure to have: gutted interior(painted battleship grey), caged, slammed, race bucket, "ARC magic" winglet, Buddy Club specII(J's style tip) exhaust, n so on...

So with some time and some JDM cues, here it is in all its hardparking glory.....


TOW!!




Youll notice ITR rims n some blue ones, i couldnt decide which so i ran with both.





Little bit of "lip action"


Some pics w/ flash to see "J's tip"


Colorful J's tip, rear sway, LCA, Omni coil combo



heh, "hella flush"


Well there it is, tell me what you guys think. Sorry, a little pic intensive. All criticism is welcomed.

WOW that's one ginormous and beefy tow hook!!! Looks pretty good though. Fairly tastefull. Keep it up!

I personally would have matched front wheels side to side, and rear wheels side to side.

i like the headlamp lenses, nice touch.

Looks nice, the exhaust tip seems unrealistic. Also the tow hook is great, but seems a little too big in scale. Some orange peel on the roof, polishing may help out. Overall a nice civic.

[Batmang]

ha, you guys are right. I guess a tow hook shouldnt be almost half the size of the valve cover... and rsxse240, are you talking about from an asthetic pov? cause that would look kinda funny wouldnt it? I guess if you were talking about from a mechanical pov then yes.

Criticism:
Massive tow hook
Pavement-scraping exhaust kink
Poor-fitting front air dam
Orange-peely roof
Baseball-sized shift knob
Engine front/latch panel (looks tacky)

Comments: Cool concept, nice wheels (though not sure about the unmatching sides), unique paint color.
