first gen on cylinders

i think it looks sweet, and the rims give it a sporty look instead of the big cheese look, but then he ruins it w/ that fucking rear wing

i think that looks awful. the wing is atrocious, the yellow stickers are rice, the yellow seat belt pads are rice (but do add 15 hp), light covers look ghetto. just my opinion though.

Granted im not a huge fan of the wing either we shouldnt bash him this much. I mean someone posted a pic of his car w/o his permission im sure and he isnt even here to defend himself. He put a lot of work into that car and im sure he likes it a lot. To each his own. Atleast invite him to the forum if you want to bash his car. Just my 2 cents

i agree, but giving a personal opinion is not necessarily bashing if you say "IMO".

anyway, i just think what he is trying to do to his cl is what most people on this forum dont like doing. but i cant knock the air cylinders though!

one thing i noticed he mentions on the page he can do 3 wheel. that is impossible with cylinders unless you are driving 40 mph in a circle. reason, hydros and cylinders and different, cylinders can be dropped all the way, and if you went to jack the car up the wheels will stay on the ground until the cylinders are fully extended.

to each his own, but def. different!

That might be the ugliest modded CL I have ever seen. I do like the yellow brakes though.

Yeah, does look like a ghetto job on the headlights, doesn't look like they even match.
All my mods are done by hand so someone could very well say the same for mine. But I do think my car is a bit more classy than that one. The wing doesn't go well aesthetically... the shape is all wrong, our car has a different stance than a Civic or supra etc. so it doesn't look good.

I can deal with the stickers and seatbelt pads, I'd like to see what the interior looks like. He sure didn't put much into the engine... about as simple as it gets you know... doesn't even have custom piping.

I can't beleive he won a place at a show. Musta been a "How big is your wing" show...

Oh yeah... insert "IMO" wherever you like...

I wonder what other types of wings (there are lots) other than the stock one look good or OK on our ride...

I think a 98 accord factory coupe one may look interesting because of the angular look to it.

In some of his pics he is only on three wheels though.

IMO i think that wing is much better than any aluminum one i have ever seen

bro, i hate to tell you, i've seen that fucking wing on a CL before and it's fucking hideous. And i'm glad you put lots more money into your car then i have. Feel special? my car is my driver, i've got another car thats got alot more WORK into it then anything you drive ever will. So you can lick my TAINT bitch.

I'm sure the rest of your car looks great w/ the accord kit and all. But IMO and the opinion of many others on this board. they will laugh at your wing.

looks photoshoped, but if it is real than there is some kind of lock on the cylinder or it is jammed in the wheel well.

hmmm lets see. im only 18 i have gone through a 99 maxima gle and i have many more cars to go through. i have a 2000 landcruiser. hmmm lets rethink this. many people have seen my car on the road and jocked it. they stick there heads out the window and yell nice car. you haven't seen my car with the wing and a kit? and if u think your car is any fast. wow u have nos. i can go and buy a nos kit and have it running by tomorrow. but nos takes the fun out of working on the car. nos is cheap and a good way to put your car to waste. and again lick my nuts.

bro, i don't care about my CL never have, it's what my daily driver was while i built my hot rod so blow me bitch. And i bet people like your car. San diego is the ricer capitol. I just don't like those ugly ass wings. My opinion. I was gonna do a turbo for my car, already had everything worked out but am selling it for a wrx.



i don't care what you have, i spent 6 years BUILDING a car from scratch, that beats anything you can ever buy and slap on your car yourself.

and by the way, i get jocked on the freeway just as much as you do. It's not everyday you see a CL fixed up. I commend you on your car. I just think the wing will need to go.

Well hurry up and get a picture of your CL so we can all see it and decide if we like it or not.

You've complimented me on my hotrod plenty of times, you just dont' know who I am on this board.

Hmm never really thought about ghander being CLPower but you could be right. 183 posts and he just registered although it seems you already know its him since you said he has Nitrous and stuff

he has that many posts because he individually posts each sentence he writes
