Nice pics...but I do have one beef. They're almost all taken from the same exact angle! I wanna see the rear!
Surprizingly the buddy club front, and WW skirts don't look too bad together. Nice job man.

It doesnt look bad but I just cant get over the sideskirts. They look bad IMHO..... (2F2F) in I like the front and the rear though and it has a nice drop. Hopefully it has a little bit of balls though to make it look better as it blows by people. ;)

I like the kit. I just wish the side skirts weren't that low. I love the rear end http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/jump.gif

If I went with buddy club, I'd probably go buddy club sides also, but definitely go for the rear wings west bumper.

Nice setup. I was wondering when you were going to post pics. I knew you said you were going to do this :D good job

Yes he did ask for our opinion but does the movie 2F2F have anything to do with our opinion. Constructive criticism is great and is what I feel the guy was looking for here as are alot of other people are when they post pics and stuff of their new mods. I just hate how alot of people on here are so quick to scream rice or now 2F2F. Do a search for the word rice there is like 349 threads that contain the word, are we on a car forum or a damn cooking forum. My only point was yeah go ahead if you don't like something someone does to their car go ahead let em know that its just not your style and you don't really like the way it looks. If someone post pics of a 88 cavalier with a 4ft high wing and type R stickers or something yeah then scream rice as loud as possible but don't do it if someone adds a kit or new shift knob or something. Sorry if I offended anyone with my previous post it just pisses me off.

05-29-2003, 05:53 AM
I hear what you're saying, but again, he asked for opinions. Not constuctive ones, or offensive, just opinions.

I personally don't find any use in calling someone's ride "rice" anymore.

I find that the word "crap" covers it much better.

In this case, I like his car, the kit, and the look he's acheived. While it may not be the look that most go for, it's his.

personally...dont see anything about the car that is rice. or what ever term is used now. i think the car looks great. GOOD JOB! like what was said before...if he had some retarded 4ft tall wing...then yea its kinda pushing it. and its not like he has any "rally art" stickers running down the side of his car. its a nice clean car. c'mon now guys...is anything NOT JDM, rice now? anyone can carbon copy a car from japan.

Omg thank you so much rev exactly what im saying!!!! I love the look of the car and well some people dont like the sides but i think they are way pimp however im into i little bit more of an aggressive look.......BUt for i swear it seems these days anyone that isnt going jdm is just getting a bunch of bull rice this that kinda shit.....But seriously You car is pimp!! And i love the Jdm look but i bet all the japs that have the actaul ctrs and real jdm cars are like ahahahaha look at all the wannabe's in the states ahaha they can never have what we get.....And there is nothing 2fast2furios about his car...Just because he sets his car off from the rest by not following the trend omg.....I do realize it was only one or to that said this but ive just gotten way fed up sorry guys....And i hoenstly think the wings west sides and back are mad pimp!!! And you should check out the carbon Mugen(i think) wing!! Now that bitch is tight!!!!) I think there is a recent thread around here with some nice pics of it!!!:D

Ok well I have to say I like the rear and the front the sides I am not to sure about. I do like that you can use the two tip pipes in it since that is what I want to keep on mine when I do my muffler upgrade.

Can someone do this to their car in silver please? I am looking for a body kit for my car the future and I am liking this one. The only thing it does do is make your car look very low witch I would be worried about hitting bad roads but I know I am only doing a 1.5 inch drop so it my not be as bad for that.

2.i like the pix with the building smashed windows :thumbsup:

That place is cool, its an industrial park next to the Roanoke River. Just a little upstream from the sewage plant. Some people use it as an outlaw drag strip down here but the roads are two narrow and there's a rail road going across one of them.

I don't like that park because when my grand national hits full boost the back end will usually kick out in one direction or the other and on a place like that your either going to tag the gravel or the other car if your not far enough ahead of him. eather way its always a good place to get some nice pictures.

k20, i know you have seen my car before. i park with the imports sometimes at our school, its the black "monte carlo" looking deal with the loud exhaust. ive never had a chance to talk to you before thow.

05-31-2003, 10:50 PM
personally i just like the rear end of your car. That shit is Cute. anyways i dont really like the buddy club bumper or your sideskirts or the grills you used but i think with a carbon hood blacked 0ut lights black grills and CF mugen wing your car will look a little better.

Hey man.. What's up? You go to Byrd? Would I know you?

I see that you're familiar with the industrial park. I haven't met a whole lot of people around here who know much about that area. Great scenery! I scouted out all the spots, and took all the pictures. :) I'm proud. Haha...

Anyway, yeah, I see you seem to have good taste in cars if you have a Grand National. As far as I'm concerned, that's one of the sweetest semi-recent American cars. Other than that, Germany produces the best cars. :D

black87regal
06-02-2003, 08:33 PM
yeah i go to byrd but i doubt if you know me i dont usually hang out with the import crowd, i just hit the street races from time to time.

just one little word of warning, theres several grand nationals in and around roanoke and im the only one that owns one that aint a cop so just make sure a kid is driveing it before you try and race them :D

now if your willing to get some better pictures i know this place, on the front side of mill mountian that theres a old "guard shack-ticket booth" left over on the origional road to the zoo made back in the 1910s or so. the place looks like a small fortress with a arch.

and down in near cave spring theres a abandoned cement plant, it would make some good pictures if we could cut the cable and get over there. it would be neat if we could do a photo shoot of the gn and several imports.

I can think of at least 3 Grand Nationals in Roanoke, not including you... and I know for a fact that one of them isn't a cop, and his GN is far from stock. Ate a Cobra by more car lengths than I can count fingers. :D

But yeah, let's all get together one day for another little photoshoot. We were just playing around that day at the lake and at the warehouse, just to show updates of both of the cars since the last pictures were taken. Know what I mean? Yup yup.

Anyway? What's your name man? I went to Byrd, class of '02. Does the nickname "VeeDub" ring a bell? lol

Sounds like a plan! I've been collecting applications this week, so at the soonest, I won't start a new job until next week (AT THE SOONEST, I stress that part. lol) ...that means I have nothing to do until then.

actully my dad was the one doing the burnout, i did not know he was planing it i just got lucky enough and snaped off a shot.


I can think of at least 3 Grand Nationals in Roanoke, not including you... and I know for a fact that one of them isn't a cop,

im sure theres some around that i dont know about but the majority of them are cops, one of them named andy baught a we2 (grand national) and a we4 (black t type) and got all of his friends in to them. we are going to start a turbo buick club for fast freddys and drag races if we ever get around to getting the t shirts printed off.

another photo shoot sounds good, i know a few places that the hatch would look great setting next to like the old guard house. ever thaught about a junk yard? (no jokes intended im searious) have k20s hatch shined up with stacks of crushed cars in the back ground, that would make some SWEET pictures.

Sup Ronnie.. I'm Adam. Nice to meet ya bro.

Anyway, yeah, I had already thought about the junkyard scene, but the only problem with that is that I'd want to get permission as opposed to just driving up in there and snapping shots. Not only that, but have you been in any of the junkyards around here? Not sure if you noticed or not, but Michael's Civic is pretty low. It wouldn't be too much of a problem with a car sitting at stock ride height, but he's a little lower. In fact, he couldn't get over one of the speed bumps at the industrial park, and he went in almost all the way sideways... lol.

About the guard house or whatever it is, we'd have to cut some sort of wire? Wouldn't that be something along the lines of felony trespassing? Typically, that wouldn't be a big deal to me at all, but I'm getting ready to turn 19. They'd throw my ass in jail, and you guys would probably just get a call to mommy and daddy telling them you've been naughty. :p But yeah, I'm all for it. LOL.

About the guard house or whatever it is, we'd have to cut some sort of wire?

well it depends on what way we go. technically the road is now a drive way to that mansion on the side of the mountian but back then it was the only road to the top. theres a streatch about a mile or so long that is blocked off by removable baracades (posts in holes) it hasent been used sence the 60s but the roads still in great shape. the guard house is not in a blocked off area if we can find the road from the bottom. i know the general location but we would have to cruze a few streets to find it. if we cant, we can always go from the top and replace the posts or throw them over the bank and claim they were never there. i seariously doubt we would get caught eather way, i broke in to it a while back but next time im taking a ax to get in to the upstairs.

i just came back from a junk yard. theres several around here that he can get his car in to pretty easily as long as you stayed on the mail part of the yard but the mud is going to be a killer. theres one just past the vintion weaveing mill that would be perfect. its nice and flat with no bumps.
