theres something about it, just looks strange...

i think it needs: black roof wing, black mirrors, black headlight buckets...

I thought about it.....but I dont want to be a carbon copy

shinhed · 10-29-2008, 05:14 PM

Very tastefully done. That's right, lets leave exaggerated side skirts and rainbow flakes in the past. Well done.

derek_s13 · 10-29-2008, 05:21 PM

subtly vented hood. perhaps cf.... but then you said you didn't wanna copy the original TOO much

cf craftsquare mirrors... or maybe even oem black ones with the origin glass

removing the roof wing might match the car's sleek and round look better, especially with your chosen spoiler

i agree on black headlight buckets. leave the tops maroon if you like

i think smoked jdm sidemarkers would look a lot better than lame usdm amber ones

and i'm actually surprised and even a little bit offended that after allll that bodywork, you left the rear sidemarkers... why?

i'm just nitpicking, but i agree with the consenus. i looked at it and it just looked.... wierd.
i guess i was too hyped up..

bboyoracle · 10-29-2008, 05:24 PM

Origin glass? Are you talking about the ones with the LED turn signal? I have those but have yet to put them on. Bought it off the group-buy here. Thanks zilvia

bboyoracle · 10-29-2008, 05:27 PM

ZX88 · 10-29-2008, 05:28 PM

yeah those. oem glass, with like ford excursion blinkers behind the glass haha.

BUT, what i didn't say, and i'm sorry, is congratulations of having the patience for a really high-quality build.

whether the style or master plan came together perfect or not, this was body build definitely had attention to detail

*S13Boosts* · 10-29-2008, 05:33 PM

damn love it.. my s14.5 super made status should be coming soon hehhe

Yeah I got those!

Thanks man I appreciate it. This has been a journey for me that I just wanted to share with you guys. I've never really built a car to this extent before. But I knew it was going to be fun and hell if I can take you guys along for the ride, even better.

whiterps13 · 10-29-2008, 06:00 PM

I honestly wish you wouldnt have painted the mirrors/pillars/roof body color
It didnt come painted from the factory for a reason
Always looks weird

Roof/mirrors/pillars black and lose the roof wing, it will be perfect

bboyoracle · 10-29-2008, 06:16 PM

^^^^ no fair you are biased lol

I did decide to keep the window trim and quarter window trim black. Not a fan of black mirrors or two tone.

blueshark123 · 10-29-2008, 06:32 PM

Should of painted it all black it would have been sexy, that red looks to much like oem burgundy. Maybe its the pics aswell

Sway500 · 10-29-2008, 06:50 PM

I agree with some of the other post. The car looks good it just needs some color contrast. Its just a tab bit too burgandy. A carbon hood and even hatch, with some aero mirrors will really set the car off in my opinion.

**ThatGuy** · 10-29-2008, 06:53 PM

The pics make it look like a Z31 to me.

ZenkiCam · 10-29-2008, 06:58 PM

me too. you need a grille of some sort, paint the headlight buckets black, mirrors black and need a CF hood and leave the CF hatch original color.. then it will be perfect. oh yea, lower, and final konexion gt mirrors.

ScottMan · 10-29-2008, 07:32 PM

It kinda reminds me of a Z31 in some angles. Should look really awesome lowered. Definitely respect the attention to detail on the build. Great job.

EDIT: Oh wow...didn't even see your post, ThatGuy!

genetic · 10-29-2008, 08:26 PM

BustedS13 · 10-29-2008, 09:00 PM

/zilvians

ROUGE180 · 10-29-2008, 09:19 PM

YESSSSSSSSSS YOU FINALLY GOT IT!!! I love it! Congrats.

turbo_dreams · 10-29-2008, 09:43 PM

Mind i ask how much the super made housings cost you and where?

drftwerks · 10-29-2008, 09:53 PM

fix those headlights, ganadors, and super drop/spacers = might look ok

Baron Fel · 10-29-2008, 10:13 PM

I'm diggin' it

It looks different enough that it's almost unrecognizable as a S13... It definitely stands out with out attracting too much attention. Congrats!

***FaLKoN240*** · 10-29-2008, 10:45 PM

Waiting until you've actually finished lowering it til I pass judgment.

BustedS13 · 10-29-2008, 11:17 PM

a factory color and OEM-quality body work IS NOT SUFFICIENT ON ZILVIA! DIDN'T YOU KNOW?

go out to your garage and start randomly beating on it with a hammer, and zip tie the bumpers on
cover it in retarded stickers that mean nothing
drop it down so the frame is sitting on the ground and you can't drive it

then it'll be cool

oh, and buy a bunch of allover print t shirts and flat billed hats at like three times retail price. then you'll be cool too

I10cruiser · 10-29-2008, 11:17 PM

yeah needs contrast . but it looks tight

TheWayItGoes909 · 10-29-2008, 11:26 PM

yes its missing the color black and a agressive hood maybe better matched wheels

BustedS13 · 10-29-2008, 11:32 PM

i mean seriously, your car totally sucks. why aren't the wheels chewing away at the wheel wells? you should be afraid to make a turn

I AGREE WITH ABOVE POSTER. WHY IS UR HOOD NOT MOAR AGGRESSIVE? ALSO YOUR CARS EYES ARE NOT ANGRY ENOUGH
