Tasteful Modifications Thread

[Fastcarguy]

Never facepalmed so much in an entire video. Put all that work in for a fake mod. I didn't really understand why. $2000 dollars worth of fake mods over the course of 6 months. Like they said, consider doing it for real. Yeah. In 6 months, you could've had a beast of a car.

except they were trying to show how you could make a good looking car on a very tight budget. like they said, its your car. if you look at it, and you are pleased, and you admit the fact that its all fake, there is nothing wrong. Thats why I like these guys. You have to admit, it was a drastic improvement to when they got it.

Half and half on the first car, would be better in a darker colour.

Second, the rims ruin it for me. Too JDM YO. It's a Saab.

Third one is perfect.

It's funny you say that, because it is a Japanese car.

Because that Saab is directly based on the Subaru Legacy Wagon.

Back on topic, yes this is a Suzuki Cappuccino post, and yes, alot of them are hardly tasteful, but at the same time all of them are awesome!
And yes, even that "Cobra" is a Suzuki.

The Mini-NSX isn't actually a Cappucino...

 

[R5]

Yup. Honda Beat, however I want them all because they're so cute!

This is the base model before private teams get onto modifying it further for racing.

 

[SVX]

That looks like a crappy, unfinished kit car, imo...

Much better

It doesn't have one. It has a lip.

If they are not tasteful, even if some of them are awesome (the minority, mind you), they don't belong in this thread. Try the Imports thread.

Dear mother of all insanity.

It's not that quick though, only 0-100mph in 6.5s

 

[TexRex]

The wheels on it are far too big...smaller ones would burden the car less thanks to reduced rotating mass and unsprung weight, and they would get it a little lower to the track as well if the tread width and aspect ratio were retained..

 

[Legro]

Not something I would consider tasteful, but it's awesome.

I was scrolling down, saw the roofline and nose

"YES!!! THE FAMILY VOLVO!"

Then I saw the louvres and lip, and rims...

That reminds me, I kinda forgot to mention but for a few months now I've been planning a build with my friends for a KA swap in a cappuccino.

I honestly think the KA is a perfect engine to be mounted into such a wonderful corner cruncher.

FYI the KA engine, more specifically the K8-DE DOHC 24V is the one from the Mazda MX-3, a 1.8L V6 generating 140bhp at a fascinating 9000rpm and a wonderful power & toruqe band, while also being very lightweight.

I know most of you probably have no idea what this engine even is, well that's the way I base my life on, to do and use the things that people don't do and never heard of.

Going to Japan preferably next year to film a documentary about tuning culture too with a large group of friends in our organisation, so I would want to buy one from there and import back during the filming.

Sorry for the off-topic, should probably put this in another post.
