1.
Could you please post pictures of the car on tarmac. Will give a better idea in terms of road clearance etc. i.e. how low the kit extends.

2.
As you rightly mentioned, the tires are looking too small. The wheel-well gap is spoiling the overall looks. Either the rims need to be upsized or the car lowered IMHO.

Edit:
The Tail-lights are fabulous. I haven't seen these before. Are aftermarket projector or angel-eye headlights available for this car?

will look into it for sure, we have to work out ground clearance before we intend to drop it. after market headlights are not available but conversion is, we have the conversion kit with us

@autokuztomz: dont you think the car badly needs suspension lowering??

iraghava · 2nd July 2008, 20:00

This looks pretty good Gaurav, and yes better rims are needed for sure!

I don't agree with the rear bumper "step ladder detailing"
(on the side). The rest of the car is pretty good though !!!!

O.T.

Saw an Accord done by you at AUTOPSYCHE for redoing of body kit...what happened

Cheers

Not in this life time beta!

You go anywhere near it & I'll exchange with Pranay's car!

Looks really good especially the tail lights and the instrument console.
And yes the car definitely needs different rims,you should look at either 5 spoke rims or multispoke rims.

Cyrus43 · 3rd July 2008, 01:14

That is a beautiful kit setup. Except for the rear bumper. Dont put the projector lights on this one. The stock headlights make it looks full of character. Also, Those instrument clusters looks like they are right out of need for speed underground 2. Try a set of Black wheels on this. Chrome looks to Bling!

Ricky_63 · 3rd July 2008, 10:11

Two observations IMHO :

# The tail pipe on a diesel ? What does she sound like ? Or is this a petrol car ?
# Are those 17" wheels ? If not them upgrade to 17"& definately not in chrome

Ultimately it's the owners call !!!

Cheers

autokustomz-good job done, but few suggestions,1.please change the rims,2.if you could do something about the rear bumper,would be better,make it look much simpler, this looks too loud. otherwise awesome job, congrats dude.
