Here are some examples to get you started:




Here's one in a different vein:

You should also the same image tattooed onto both of your arms.

Is it sad that I think the Civic-Veyron actually looks kind of cool? Obviously the Bugatti is much better looking, but the idea of a Veyron shooting brake is kind of cool. To bad then engine is back there.

I like it, too... that doesn't answer your question about sad, though.

A wise man (ford owner) once told me this "a car doesn't have to be 'nice' for me to like it" lol. In American we have the freedom to like crappy cars if we choose to

You're not the only one who likes that. I think your path for cosmetic direction has been illuminated.

That car looks way better than I would have expected had I not seen a photo. Just a few custom body pieces, and the rest is paint.

Can we stay on topic? Nik just wants to keep us informed about his Honda project.

I'm looking forward to the end result.

If you think this thread is off topic, then clearly you've never been part of the modified japanese import scene.

I got enough of a taste from the VW scene to put me off the mentality forever. 5 stance discussions per show is my limit.

Don't worry A&R, I'll still post actual automotive content in this thread. I know a lot of people can't help but joke about Hondas. The cult that fallows Hondas is so easy to point and laugh at, some can't resist.

Yesterday I got my toyota loaded and ready to head up to my friends house to do the engine swap. I got the timing belt installed on Saturday, as well as got the valves adjusted and new plugs installed.
In the midst of doing this Honda stuff I was able to run across town and meet up with a fellow selling a T5 with all the extras (flywheel, yoke, ect) for my friends 65 mustang 5-speed project. Got the T5 strapped in next to the Honda engine.
