My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

The threads about ff3 and what car u drive along with sheer boredom led me to this...

Here is my baby. whether you hate it or love it, I did all of the work on it myself so I'm proud of it :P. When I purchased the car it came stock except for the wheels. This is the result of movies like ff.

And as a result of joining hmt... I have now finished ordering all of my turbo parts and am just awaiting arrival of the last few parts.. I'll post pics and my set up when im finished with the install. Feel free to flame all you want >:D ;D

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

Looks alright. Some stock taillights would definitely help.

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

i agree...maybe change the grill...but iv seen worse

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

What kind of car is that?The fenders,taillights,grill,headlights and hood are def not my style but whatever it could be alot worse. :-\

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

Not a fan of the style, but you gotta respect the work that went into that. I can do anything mechanical, but don't let me near a car when it comes to the bodywork :S

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

96 accord ex coupe, yea I'm ok at the body crap but still just gettin into the mech. stuff. FF got me started on that body ---- but now i've done a complete 180 and love turbos rather than show car ----. I agree the taillights and grill are a bit to ricey even for me. ;)

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

At least you are now on the path.

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

Looks good for what it is. I'd ditch the wheels for some volks, the hood for an oem looking one and get some stock tails. Then it'll be good, as long as there will be a big front mount behind that bumper.

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

ahh stop you haters. that was hard work righ tthere. good looking car. i just would hate parking it at the local supermarkets. fly shopping karts ya know! lol but good work *thumbs*

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

piece of ---- . good effort on the work tho

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

im going to laugh when you hit a dip too hard and everything cracks off...

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

change the grill and get some 96-97 tails and rock them, its pretty clean looking but not my style, im just happy you didnt go with a big airplane wing :8

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

To much bling for me, but if that makes you happy who cares what I think

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

I like it. As long as you have your own style thats all that matters. Dont worry about the haters. When sucking dick is cool they will be there too!

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

yep, get a stock grill, carbon hood, and some stock tails, and that ---- would be pimp. sometimes nomatter how much work was done the results dont add up right, sometimes you get lucky the first time, i think you got about 75% right this time, good work. oh, and i know what it means to be called a ricer, i rock motegi wheels and z3 fenders, not by choice, but more important upgrades first.

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

all the ebay companies are going to use your pics now. ;D

Well, it IS pretty impressive that you did all the work and didn't pay for all of that.

thumbs down on the style + everything molded
thumbs up on the skill + awareness

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

sell it and buy another car... work from there...

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

I think it all looks good, hard to tell on the tails, didn't see any good pics of them. Only thing I don't like about the front are the fogs, they look way out of place. All the rest seems to flow good though. Have fun getting your intercooler on though, hope you can get the whole bumper and fenders off all at once. :X

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

----. I wrote a scathing comment, and then accidently deleted it. The jist of it is that hmt is okay under the hood, your hmt is all over your car. Looks like ----.

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

Wait until the ricer craze kicks up after the movie and capitolize on it. (sell the car)

I can't find anything on the car that I like, but I understand the point you're at. Good job on doing the work yourself. One day you'll be a proud HMT member and we'll bring these pics up to haunt you. >:D

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

yeah, did you ever wonder why you almost NEVER see a lowered street driven car with a molded front bumper? its cuz it breaks, fast. but all in all i can see a lot of hard work went into it and i would have to say i would trust you to do the body work on my car. but not that style. personally i don't like the color either. im more of a flat black/ black on black guy myself.

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

i think its looks pretty good. but i would change the hood and grill to oem. f&tf:td is gonna hit hard on the ricer scene, maybe you can getr more for the car than you put into it............id sell to the right buyer..............

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

you molded the bumpers, thats the ultimate noob mistake

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

Not the most terrible thing I've seen.. and soon it's going to be turbo.

Looks like you put a ---- ton of work into it. Good job ;D

Re: My rice machine hate it or love it.
 

well its hard to comment on everytihing u guys said (especially when im drunk) but over all thanks... I still have the stock tails and grill (chrome grill and altezza tails for those who couldn't tell) and im tossin those back on now. I know all about the speed bumps and pot holes... ive fixed and re-sprayed enough massive cracks now so i've raised it an inch since the pics... but thanks all and stealthmode im warning u now that im reppin the tc so you are GOIN to see me soon! (just take it easy on me :)) oh and the paint is audi's pelican blue :)

i forgot to add that i now have the intercooler mounted and yes it was a major BITCH... noob=molded front bumper but thats me so hey :P

I will be startin the turbo project soon so look for pics ( msd 6al ignition and ignition set are in along with FMIC, the rest should begin this weekend if all parts arrive on time :)) (should be helpful for ne1 runnin the f22)

PS: I WILL be at the pinks race(hopefully with a complete turbo) so if you would like to check out my ricer/smack me in the face, feel free >:D
