I have a neighbor who one day sold his riced out accord and came home with a very very nice white Z. Then a month later it was gone for a few days and came back like this.

I HATE it. from the tip of its non-functional-fugly-a** transam hoodscoops to the horridly re-upholstered color matching seats to the end of its dangerously gay altezza tail lights.

lets see that again.

To keep things fair, it seems like some of the parts on the car aren't complete crap (some, as in one or two) and he doesn't drive like a complete tool around the neighborhood, so thats good too.

Please, nico, save the Z. Don't do this.

Am I being too harsh? I don't think so, I have to see the damnable thing every day.

like the saying goes " you can take a person out of a ricer , but you can never take the ricer out of the person" oh well them fresh little cuban girls who still smell a little salty from the raft like that. so he might have a chance at something.........lmfao or maybe not.... i highly doubt it LOL

Not bad, I like how you took these pics in broad daylight just to bash it lololololz

He probably got jealous of that guy across the street with the sunset z, and decided to get one.

i'm with kuhan, to each his own...but my opinion would be to never do that to my car and many people on this site would agree. I look at cars like that and just wish I had that much money to spend on a car! With all the work he did to it I could've gotten the Volk time attacks wheels I want or maybe even a supercharger....man it sucks being broke...ha

You need to help that guy understand why that stuff is lame. Take him under your wing and educate him.

True, most of this car is gay. I don't think the wing by itself would look that bad on a normal car. Like mine. I'm thinking of getting a wing and I might consider one like that. Is the wing really too ricey?

What do you need a huge wing for?

Do you drive 120mph all the time?

hahaahaa! I don't think I'm a ricer.... But if you put the Nismo version wing on this same car you would still consider it a riceball. I was just thinking you might be able to get away with just the wing on a regular car.... b/c the Nismo wing isn't exactly small

Definitely DON'T get a wing like that.... unless there are supporting mods (i.e. track suspension, underbody trays/diffusers, racing (as in REAL) seat, cage, gutted interior, and some serious power) and a real need for it (you go to the track on a regular basis)

Oh, also, that one is probably not very functional even at the track (seeing as I saw no adjustability), so still don't get it.

Haha I think a talk over a few beers ending with him crying and leaving my porch to go key his own car would do better, but I think I'll just let it alone.

I can attest this one!!!

I'm still bewildered how they could do such things to their Vteck cars.

Good call! I like that one a lot. The Nismo wing is the one I was probably going to get. Is that one Nismo?
