Hell, Ima ricer and voted put it away. You don't paint a car to make it look like that. Also not a fan of the wheels. Also the kit isn't quite my thing. Also the wing isn't to my taste either. Lotta work tho.

remember those visors you could in your windshield like back in the late 80s, early 90s that was silver and changed colors. i mean, who puts those in their car anymore?   Oh wait, the paint looks like that too! Maybe its just me, the paint also makes the car look dirty for some reason.

Too over-the-top. A few of the mods would really have set the car apart, like the hood and headlights, but the huge front bumper and rear wing kill it. The paint is also too much of a stretch for most people's tastes, including mine.

New wheels (no chrome  ), new paint and get rid of the clear tail lights would do wonders for this car. Silver, Red, Black, Charcole, Sonic Blue would all look good.

I like the hood, the rear trunk and a couple of other things, but that body kit has to go. The spoiler almost works but not really. Rims = yuk.

Maaaajor nay.
Color is horrid, wheels don't match the rest of the direction the vehicle is taking. Wing is alright, but it looks a little odd to me on the stubby end of a hatchback. A full trunklid might do it better. On hatchbacks, I prefer the wings that mount to the top of the windshield, a la Ford Focus or Peugeot 206 S16.
However, the hood is fantastic and I don't really mind the bumpers, if the bottom lip didn't stick out so far.
Lots of work done, but there's also lots of work TO BE done.
This is only my opinion though.

Based on the comments I'm amazed the score is 17-15 in favor of yay????
amazing how the supporters arent coming forward with their reasoning or identity. But the Nah sayers are always willing to lend their criticism.
