I don't really like it either. It has a very subtle body kit, which make the agressive hood, scoops, and wing look quirky. &nbsp;Wheels are nice though.

The owner seems to like it tho and that's all that really matters...

yeah i'll agree with rancid here, that is kinda nasty. &nbsp;so many scoops, there's like 20 of 'em. &nbsp;The one behind the door and the wing are absolutely GROSS! but the other stuff can be tolerated. &nbsp;i just hope he is making some power to back up that aggressive look.

Overall, I'd say I like it. &nbsp;But it has that little buble before the sunroof and I hate those. &nbsp;Also NO car can pull off a double stack wing. &nbsp;sure but a single "fined" wing on there, but not a double! &nbsp;ACK! &nbsp;I like the air hole things tho, and the little thing on his rear window looks cool too. &nbsp;Definately a nice car.

That car is nice, but I don't like the wing and his rims.

I don't like the 2 air deflectors. &nbsp;The one in front of the sunroof and the other on the hatch. &nbsp;Get rid of those and it would be beautiful. &nbsp;I like the color. &nbsp;It's the same as mine. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

I think it looks real nice. &nbsp;If the ducts on the side where functional it would make them much cooler. &nbsp;I think a different wind would look better on there. &nbsp;Like the Type-X wing maybe? &nbsp;and loose the wind deflectors.. &nbsp;

I definately like it though. &nbsp;Very clean.

No, thank you.

BTW, that's a "home-made" hood... or rather home-made hood vents.

it's all depends on ur tastes
I personally like GT wings.
the car looks good imo.

I think I like it better without the wing. The oversized GT wing just takes away from the look. Would look better with a "normal" sized wing....like mine. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

I like the black painted roof too, I never thought of doin that. Looks good.

What's wrong with the wheels? I think they go well with the cars racey (not ricey) style.

That car would look sweet with a bomex "lip" spoiler. &nbsp;I plan on painting my roof black like that also. &nbsp;The hood looks like JUN.

IMO - Thats a sweet car! &nbsp;But for a couple of reasons!
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1 &nbsp;I cant afford it!
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;2 &nbsp;It looks better then mine!

IMHO - I'd take those tacky air deflectors off!!! &nbsp; (and the wing) our cars look amazing wiht a subtle body kit and no wing!

If he's got a SR (s15) under the hood, then I'd poo my pants in a second! &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'>

Yeah, I hate the wing, maybe too many scoops, but the rest of the car is good looking, especially the wheels and paint job. Everyone's got different taste. &nbsp;I bet the owner is young...

For an older guy (me!<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>, I think this car looks much better:

that kit is to square for the fb and those vents are a lil to much i like how cars look without wings more clean look

but hey thats not my car so whatever makes the owner satisfied

and yes the jaque mond body kit is amazing i dont dig kits to much as i used to but if i had a fb or if it fits a coupe i would get that iin a heart beat (after susp and engine mods of course)

Funny, as an older person.. I hate the european Jaques kit or whatever it is called. &nbsp;Besides the fact that its wide-body, I still absolutely hate the shape of the car and the atrocious side-vents that dont meet with the door well at ALL.

As for the red 240 at the start of this thread, I somewhat like it. &nbsp;Dont get me wrong, I saw the pic of it PS'ed without the wing.. that was interesting. &nbsp;BUT, the car actually looks better with the wing - hmm. &nbsp;I think what makes the wing acceptable is that its painted to be as discrete as possible.. and that attention to detail matters to me.

The aero-thing for the sunroof is cool, its functional.. you guys ever tried to have the sunroof open with the windows up? &nbsp;You get a lot of turbulance.. so I dont care what you guys say, it works and that that. &nbsp;The one in the back? &nbsp;Bleh, doesnt look functional - not my cup o tea.

Oh, and the NSX vents.. bleh, not a fan. &nbsp;Dont get me wrong, it would be nice on a car like a... hmmm... NSX? &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> &nbsp;But on the 240, its merely cosmetic.. and like all useless modifications, shouldnt be there. &nbsp;I think it blends in well with the hood and bumper, but I still dont like it. &nbsp;Simple - run some ducts and its functional.

Thats about it. &nbsp;Nice work though, looks like a fun car for someone 16-24.

91blk240 remember this is everyone's own opinion. you can't post a photo and expect everyone to love it... unless it's the Koguchi 180sx. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> &nbsp;

But honestly, I don't like either cars. The original one is too ricey of a robo-body kit. wtf do all those vents do? Exactly: nothing. I'm all for wings, just make sure the benefits of the downforce it creates outweighs the massive drag you'll experience at high speeds.

As for the "euro" look (as someone called it) I am also a very function-over-form person, so I say no to the intakes behind the door. If the 240 was a MR or RR (mid or rear engine) car it'd make a lot of sense, but if memory serves, my 240s engine is up front. the rear lights don't look "right" IMHO either.
However I'm all for the fatties out back. i.e. the deep dish rims w/ some 295 rubber. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/notify.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':notify:'>

i know nothing about erenbuni (erebuni?) but from what I've seen, their products look... mediocre at very best. I just can't see a company making that kind of stuff rolling out quality made pieces.

What I derive from their website just points in a low-grade "rice" direction... I mean, look at some of the stuff they have!! &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hmmm.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hmmm:'>
