Maybe they'll let him keep his old hood so he can put it back on later. Well I have to admit, the car they made looks better than the one in the game.

cant say im too fond of either the hoodscoop that doesnt go anywhere or the red accents with the graphics though, other then that looks pretty good.

Although if I were you I'd strip it and do a silvia conversion rather then the body kit they did, also sell 2 xboxs! and 5 of the monitors.

Does it seem odd to anybody that his headlights are always up?

I like the kit and the green, just not the spoiler, hoodscoop and graphics.

okay im going to be honest here, it could have been worse. but, if you remove the wing thingy, take off the hood and sell those two, you could have enough for a nice carbon fiber hood. see about removing the decals on the side, and other than that, its acceptable. get the ka-t done in a hurry though.

well, what can i say....hmmmm....definitely not my style. the first thing i'd do is sell the wing, hood, all the neon, all the contents of the trunk, the body kit, and then get a new hood, or your old one, a new body kit that looks a lot better than the pos that's on their now and then finish your ka-t buildup, i think you'll still have enought money leftover to eat...all i have to say is, thank god it wasn't a hatch!

yes a transmission swap should have been the first thing on the list, but can anyone here on nico honestly say that if their car was in that condition like his, they could refuse a free offer such as that from MTV?

I think you came out ahead! That is probably the best outcome I have seen on the show. They didn't put a fireplace or some other nonsense in there!

Yes it was free but that doesn't make it cool or good. I have and will continue to turn down sponsorship offers from companies that want me to rice out my car. But regardless its something I guess.

yea they spray painted the tail lights.

The first front bumper was pretty "tight" looking.

Anyone else notice he drives a coupe and the game was a hatchback?

I choose neutral ground on this one and will only say that he got new tires and they were free.
