Thanks to SSVR's post, someone was able to post a link to a site I had been looking at a long time ago. I REALLY like this graphic: Looking for opinions.

Minus the silent rage part, just the dominos

Ha, it's a small world. That club "silent rage" is from around where i live, Up in Canada. Any ways, i've seen the domino graphics and they look pretty cool. Plus if you dont like them then just peel that shit off!

I have grown tired of telling people "what's ugly" and "what isn't"... I guess it all comes down to the fact that ALL of what we do to our EP's is for fun, right??? SO.... go for it, and if you don't like 'em, you can peel 'em off....

On a side note, their kinda neato.... different than most "decals" you see. I believe, and essmith has proven, that decals can be done tastefully... :)

i dont care for graphics in general, and that one is no exception. got any other designs u were interested in?

Esmith definately showed that body graphics CAN look really good. I think (at least for me) what kills graphics are cars that have them PLUS company stickers all over them (unless sponsored).
Anywho, here are some others I was looking at:

I also like the Mugen stripe.

has my vote, plain and simple, yet follows the lines of the car, it coule even be done in a reflective vinyl which i think would look cool

Never thought of reflective vinyl, I am going to have to photochop that and see what's what.

Definitely has my vote as well......Usually not a fan of graphics but I really like the visual of this on an EP.

By the way, what color is your EP?

can you chop the graphics on the ep, so can get a more accurate idea how it would really look on the ep?

Speck

Going to work on that ASAP. My EP is euro Yellow :)

Everyone has their own opinion... Thats what make cars so unique... If we all though up the same ideas, this world would be boring. In my opinion, graphics makes the car stand out more. But it really comes down to what the driver want the car to look like. Does anyone know any good websites that create cool graphics for our car besides Modern Image?

Speck

The place I am looking at is Silent Rage. www.silentrage.net

i agree. i'm not a fan of graphics, yet i think the right graphics could work and look pretty decent for someone that wants graphics:)

Ok, I did a rush job photochop, looks like booty but you get the idea. I will work on getting the ones I want the most together, it will help in visualization.

im not a big fan of the ol graffix either. i think that they look ok if done tastfully on a hooked up car. but last time i saw your car speck it was mostly stock so i would get some wheels springs and some other stuff and then throw the decals on:D

well actually it is your car do whatever!!!! (hotgirl one):cool:

uhm...im, not an anti-ricer...but comon....the ep is ROUND like and those decals are straight like....i think you guys are missing the point...sure it would make it look "cool" but you have to find one that fits

The domino looks the best of those, but I really don't like any of them.

I am glad that you create your own graphics, I hope you do well selling them.

Second: On behalf of America, I would like to welcome you to the Free World. Glad you feel that you can give me your opinion... now, mine is.. I don't want a graphic that "drifters" have... or FnF people have or... get the picture?

Note: This message has been tamed down due to owner's attempt to cease flaming. :)

Remember: Opinions are like assholes....

MOD: Lock this damn thread... getting tired of the bashing because I have different ideas.

Niiiiiice...

I wish I had the $$ for a body kit and proper painting/installing...

The kit I want costs $2400 and then needs to be painted and install will cost me a fortune cause I want it customized somewhat...

I can't justify it even if I did have it. I could go Stage III for that same money...

*sigh* maybe in a few years...

About the only thing that seems to look anygood at all on an EP is something like the Mugen stripe. They're just small and short, a lot of visual interference just mucks up the look of the EP. But I've been thinking of the Mugen stripe myself. At least its clean and simple.

I will tell you, if you haven't noticed already, people will give you serious shit here for having big vinyl graphics. One guy had some tribal flame stuff on his white EP, posted pics, got totally flamed, never came back.

esmith13
03-19-2004, 02:22 PM
I'm still here... And most people don't give me shit.

Hell, no one has EVER used my vinyl as an excuse to dismiss me for any reason. And I've gotten into alot of fights here about VW stuff and how slow the EP really is and noone has EVER pulled the vinyl card on me. Hell I get more flack for my APC tails. ;)

Flame-boy was just a pussy that "needed" approval.

Yeah, I had the tails for a few months, still can't sell them. Although you do have graphics (I don't think they look bad at all by the way or I probably would have mentioned it;) ), You can back up what you say. You're not some silly ricer kid. You answered more than a handful of questions I had on turbo stuff. You're a good resource, even if you do have vinyl graphics--j/k:D

Well, I apprecieate the "good resource" comment. It's good to feel useful. As for the tails, I don't give a fuck who makes them. Their not really "altezzas" ie: chrome with a clear cover. And taillights are nothing more than reflective lumps of plastic so who cares if APC made them. If APC made engine parts I'd NEVER buy them - but a lump of plastic??? Come on now - if I made them my self - the DIY heads would give me mad props. I just don't get how the "kids" here get by on there fake-ass band wagon mentalities...

The only thing worse than that is the level of "JDM'ism" going on here with a EUROPEAN designed and built civic.

Sorry - I just live in the real world.
