i think you need to find your own style.

This forum used to be nothing but encouragement and kind works. If people didn't like something they just moved along and kept their mouths shut. What happened to that?!


Keep doing what you're doing. I really like the custom raised mount

Im not tryin to bash the kid or anything. Its constructive criticism. Im not saying his cars a POS or anything, Im just saying it looks like he googled "whats cool" and threw it on his roof rack. I thought we were all in the automotive seen to express our personalities and styles through our cars, rather then just trying to fit in. But hey, thats just my 2 cents. You are right though, this site is all about diversity and bringing all the stanced styles together from all over the world in one site. Thats why i love StanceWorks. So kid, dont take what i say offensive cause thats not what i ment, take it as contructive criticism. If i didnt like your car i wouldnt waste time looking at it. Im glad to see your rippin up the frame rails though. Lower It.

uh yea all cars are trendy because everyones already done something before you, I guarantee no one has my wheels unless you drive a jeep, the basket with the cooler, has every tool i need to take my car apart, the fender got fucked up, i drew all over it, its not gonna be everyones cup of tea and thats fine by me, but dont tell me im not doing my own thing because if i wasnt it would look exactly how you want it to.

i havnt seen a civic with a 1.5 inch raised motor?
i havnt seen a civic with sectioned strut forks?
I havnt seen a civic with 4 inch extended top hats?
i havnt seen a civic with radiused rear quarters?
kinda seems like i did that on my own and didnt follow any trends....

If it was a trendy civic wouldnt i have a shocker sticker, tow hooks, type R lip, jdm fogs, jdm fenders with side markers and a jdm bumper pole..... but i dont cause i wanted to be different then everyone else but apparently im like everyone else. Think what you would like to but im gonna keep doing what i want with the car if you dont like im sorry im not up to your standards

[Jesus Christ]

is that what you consider radiused quarters?

props on the suspension work and motor raising but everything else is carelessly executed and very haggard.

also classic =/= trendy. thats why side markers, sir lips and foglights are popular.

ill reserve final judgment for the finished product.

[FittedDownLow]

yea they are radiused and not finished, believe it or not this car gets driven dailey, i dont have my element anymore so i only get to bust ass on the car and pray its running and back together so i can get to work the next day, there is 2 inches out of the rear arch, when the previous owner spray foams over rust its hard to make progress fast

[Jesus Christ]

i hear you, i think you should concentrate on the quality the mod and making sure its a improvement over the stock appearance as opposed to banging it out to do another "budget" mod just for the sake modify the car.

[FittedDownLow]

yea well they had to be done to get the car where i want it to sit, now that the camber, rideheight and rake have been aquired i just have to start making things better from this point, like raising the motor, the new front end, and exc.

[Jesus Christ]

for sure man, im certainly eager to see where you take it.

[FittedDownLow]

yea i dont want my car to look hagard forever but it has been a fun stage along the way i wont deny that

look im not trying to **** on you or flame you, im just not good at constructive criticism i guess. i was just speaking my 2 cents and giving my opinion. everyone is right, this is stanceworks and not honda tech or whatever (and that guy with the lifted black hatch with clear tails, gtfo. get a life and stop following people around forums flaming them. it doesnt make you cool.) Its your car and you should do what you want, which is clearly what your doing. so keep it up.. and the graffiti is sick.

pictures of said sectioned forks? welding cast is VERY dangerous unless it's done by someone who is familiar with welding cast

forks are in the works still deciding on the best place to take an inch out of them. And my buddy is very familiar with welding almost anything, his day job is making cryogenic stuff for pharmaceutical purposes but he use to work for a company welding cast stuff
