Vinyl... what do you think

[Beau M]

I have had this idea kicking around in my head for a while. Im not a ricer, never have been, so Im usually put off by stickers and stuff. But, i have seen a few cars with airbrushing or vinyl wraps on the hoods that looked good. I whipped this up, I know its crappy, but if gives you an idea of what Im talking about. My car is also white.

i dont like it that much. but i dont hate it.

i do like the sport 20 HID headlights though (what i would get from corksport if they werent 1400), but whats weird is that all the lights are on. shouldnt the fogs turn off with the high beams? i know ours do.

Hate to be a jerk, but its kinda (rice)

I'm on the fence about it. It does remind me of the background in that japanese seizure robots show on the simpsons though. With the right colour it could work

Although if it was the bonsai tree from the Karate Kid it'd be bad ass.

Well, the car I saw had this painting on it, "the wave":

And the one I put on is the rising sun. Guess I wont do it if its that rice, but if i get the red Rota GT3's, consider it done.

I totally agree, then it MUST be done. There's a precipice that, if you vault over, will cause riceness to become awesomeness. And those wheels launch you off that precipice with such tenacity I dare say you will cause all of us to do something similar.

what's the diff between sport20 headlights and ours? blackened out and switched high and low beam bulb positions?

HIDs, they're made for right hand drive, they have city lights (that's probably what is lit in those pics).. they'd blind everyone on the roads in the states since made for rhd.

thanks for pointing that out pirana.. that was my friend Nicole's car.. she ended up selling it. but it was superstreet cover back when most of us were still shitting in diapers.

it was called "Rising Sun" civic for the most part and it was painted not vinyl (graphics by Speedesign Custom Graphics in White Marsh, MD).

She had every sponsor under the sun (no pun intended). Unfortunately the real scene fell apart when "those movies" came out and Nicole moved on.

edit: here is another pic taken a little later on

I don't like it..but if you want to give it a try.

 

[musiclikscreams]

its not doin it for me

That idea is beyond rice, and not into awesomeness territory. That Civic makes me want to puke.
