Elnetti,

Are you replacing your Stook? Man, it was absolutely stunning with the custom interior. I'd like to know what's going on. Love the Cars section of ZigZagAsia, especially the cars of Shutoko. Post more please!

"Creative." That's what I say!

I don't think it's hideously offensive, like some cars I've seen with six-foot spoilers and other such stuff. I call it weird, but it is original, you gotta give it that.

Interesting (if strange) Pontiac Sunfire treatment on the front spoiler/hood, there, how it comes to a point...

Ditto. I think I even prefer this front end to the one on the Mugen S2000.

The front reminds me of the old Datsun Zs.

I could see a use that front spolier to plow the snow from my street in winter!

I see he' still paying for the bodykit - it's on stock wheels and he can only afford a sports driver's seat at the moment. I don't go for the R badge - everybody knows the stock S2000 is entirely awesome, and people that don't wouldn't know what the R badge was anyway.

Nope, it's not for me...but kudo's to the guy for actually having the balls to do something this outraegeous! Even the fit of the bodykit is great!

Sime,

Japanese often replace just the driver's seat, not both seats.

Also, they are not into the supersized 18+" wheels like they are over here. They believe in some semblance of go over show.

Rob, I know...I was just kidding about paying off the bodykit!!!!

I was thinking though that even if he didn't want to go for an +2 oversized wheel, he would have at least changed the wheels to something more futuristic to match the bodykit.

Don't you think?

Personally, I usually like some conservative mods on body kits so long as they are well integrated with the stock body styling. I think the original designers stopped short of the aggressive look the Stook could easily have achieved. Although I have not altered my car in any way yet, I like to see body mods that "complement" the rest of the car's styling without overpowering it.

This is a bold look to be sure, but the styling does not integrate with the original body design or complement the look of the car. It looks significantly "overdone" without achieving a smooth, stylish integration. I can't say it's the worst I've seen, but it's pretty overdone for my taste.

Hate to see an effort that was undoubtedly so costly that just doesn't quite "pull it off." Just my opinion....
