Re: My finished exterior mod

I am sure I am in the minority here, but I like it. I think your car looks great, especially in that last picture from the front angle. Oh, and I like your new user name too.

Re: My finished exterior mod

It looks right on a '69 Hemi Daytona Charger but it's a little much for the SVX. The car and the wheels are beautiful though.

I, at least was aware. So there was no slippage. He actually ASKED if he could create a new persona for a new start, so give him a chance already. ALL OF YOU.

Re: My finished exterior mod

Sorry. I'm enjoying it. It looks cool. I really, really like it.

I like the short ones including the stock one also.

Peace.

3.) It is WAAAAAY too high
4.) The "arms" are WAAAAY too long
5.) It looks like ****!!

The car WITHOUT the wing on it would look GREAT! I love the wheels and the color looks amazing... At the absolute MOST, you should look at the JDM SVX wing... I hope that constructive criticism works good in getting you to remove that thing...
