saw this on another site; thought i'd post it here.

 

I'm pretty sure he's a member on this site. I'll look for the thread.

 

Here it is...

Fail.

 

yup

 

whoops. atleast they're new pics.

will take down at owner's request.

 

 

lol..

 

The wheels kill that car

 

agreed. way overdone. i hate the old stlye cl anyway though. just cant get over the high roof line and tiny rear. idk i just don't like it..........

 

^why are u in the first gen section then?

 

i think this car can look way better with some things a little different.



wingless, sidetrim painted, one color headlights, smoked sidemarker/signal, solid color wheels, splitter fins delete, and lower.

 

yeah that black strip on the door would not look good. my

i personally think h22 euro r's car is sick.

 

SHop the roof racks back on...and why did you take the TEIN dude off the side markers?adds something

 

Nice work.
Now you just need to:
- Raise it 2 inches
- Change the hood, roof, trunk, and side mouldings back to white
- Lose the eyelids and the tinted reflectors
- Put the normal Acura badge on the hood
- find wheels that actually fit the car

Then it would be OK to be seen driving around in public. That's assuming the bumper holes were fixed too.

 

 

you might as well have said, go drive a stock CL.
the bumper holes are there for a reason. function > form

 

no waaay

but i honestly think painted side trim looks good on white cars with contrast.

 

No Way!!!



edit: I still can't get over the honda badge.

 

im friends with shaun but theres just too much going on. i would look better without the rear diffuser and eyelids. not a fan of the wheels either.

but i drove that thing last night for a few minutes and it is balls FAST!

i personally think it should be lower.

 

Bumper holes are an appearance item. A much cleaner way to get the same result would be to fabricate a rear diffuser. Unless you're doing some sort of club racing like Honda Challenge where a diffuser is not allowed, then there's no reason for it on a street car.

 

You do have a point, Blazin.

 

mannn SO MANY HATERS!!!!

 

 

just curious but what other website was this posted on?

 

thats what i was gunna say

 

fixed

 

I like this look a lot. I still like shaun's car though. way more time, money, and effort than all of you stock height, clear cornered CL's on this site, and a LOT faster too

 

You must be out your gotdamn mind. Why would he want to return it to stock?!

 

Told you that shit was fast! If it was lower it would probably constantly scrape the exhaust cutout though. As for the rear diffuser and the Honda emblems, i think those could go. But the eyelids i like and the wheels are iight too. A couple of tweaks here and there and it could be absolutely slammin, like the photoshop of it above.

 

ive always hated the eyelids.

 

if the car was black it could pull off the lids idk about white though. It is a nicely built car.

 

this brotha really out do himself. But hey to each man his own.
