#242
Once again, Style Over Comfort did an amazing job of shooting my car. I made sure they were the first official "shoot" on this car because I knew thew were all about quality and the outcome would be 100% perfect.
Check out the full interview and shoot here:

Check out the video here(sick!!):

And as promised.. Quality pictures of the build!
(all leather in the doors was replaced with the black suede/burgundy double diamond stictched just like the arm rest, picture is too dark to show, all pillars and roof are suede as well with burgundy stitching)

Super clean. While I'm not into the VIP thing, I do appreciate the work that has gone into this. The rear end picture is ridiculous imo.

i'm with you on this, some of things that are VIP are really pointless, like hard wood floors, but its alot of work, i would say that someone that does the work themselves deserves more props, then someone that gives it to a shop and has no hand in it, and just pays the bill

loving this build, especially the rear fender work great attention to detail all around. my only dislike is the idea of dropping down a size on rims just to go wider and get lower. most acura's have a hard enough time fitting in already parking next to all the vip masses.

Thanks for the updated pics! Nice to see someone take the 2g as far as you have. Your interior looks amazing as well and the pics are beautiful! I'd like to see some brighter shots as well. These photos don't do your paint justice for color what so ever. As for the comments about it being extreme, or rediculos, it's a show car. No one ever won shit being mild and low key. It's not for me, but like I said it's awesome to see someone take it as far as you have!!

I would love to see this car in person.
Are you going to SEMA in November with Jay and the rest of Team Praxis?

Here are some shots from a few recent shows out here in Socal. these pics will also give you an idea of how the paint looks in the sunlight and indoor. IMO looks quite nice! I just dropped the car back off at DTM Autobody to have the hood resprayed. just a few minor issues, they are all about standing by their work.
Also i may be scrapping the black suede interior idea. Stoked on the new color idea.
Onto the pictures:

Appreciate it!!! Thank you!
If you didnt know.. 18's are the shit!! haha What do you mean when you said "acura's have a hard enough time fitting in already parking next to all the vip masses".. are you impying 19's would aid in fitting in with traditional VIP platforms?

Thank you!!
Would be so dope.. i would buy!
Sick!
18's IMO look perfect on our cars. its all relevant to the wheel well size. The white Q45 parked next to me in the last picture is tucking 22" VIP Modulars and it looks great because you could fit a fucking horse in their wheel well!! 20's on a TL is not my style. neither is 18's on an integra
Thanks G!

18's were the shit for me in 99' on my integra. now, i kinda feel like four door luxury cars doing the vip thing deserve better than that. no offense though, to each his own, just from my personal experiences, parking next to an ls 400 or q45 on 19's or 20's while im rocking 18's (regardless the width)has me looking like im half stepping it.
that shot from stickydiljoe looks dope as shit though.

I would but your in Florida! I have it sitting in my garage right now if anyone local wants it! (not free!)
Absolutely. Lemme take a few, ill post em up possibly tomorrow.
Just put a new exhaust on yesterday, the Apexi WS2 catback system. So far I love it. The fitment and sound is perfect. I'll post pics of the WS2 with the interior shots.
