the ladies.. perfect.. the cars?? not soo good..
i saw 1 car there.. it was a white integra i believe.. and part of the front fender was all mashed up..
this 1 dude had the lowrider and the security came over when he started jumping it.. like its a car show! what the hell? guys can so in there with bags n lay it out n pick it up again but this guy cant use his hydros?
and alot of rice this year too..
i saw maybe 4 or 5 cars in there worth taking pics of ie. the 91 hatch with the headlite n tail light conversion.. full fiberglass interior..
or the crx with the light conversions.. glass interior.. and wicked *** paintjob
i saw a sweet idea with the tv's too on a 93 hatch.. comming off the door panels like mirrors on the inside... looked pretty slick..
i duno i think that just bolting a few things on a car and saying its "done up" is a joke.. look.. i got eurolites and 1 piece headlights.. a spoiler..and my car is lowered.. lets put some cotton around and in my car to give it the "cloud affect"... the idea sucked at darknights... it sucks at importfest
just my opinions on this show... but im sure dam glad i didnt pay the full price

I actually had a good time. It was long. but I got to spend 12 hours with friends. Plus I knew most of the vendors on 100 level, and it was nice talking to them too. (Lockdown, Teknotik, Audio Heaven, Option JDM, Defcon, Shinzo Werks) Did any of you stop by the TCC booth? It was next to CSCS.
All and all got to meet some nice new people, and talk to alot of people I don't get to see often.

it was a bit of a dissapointment.
there were some nice cars. i liked the jdm ITR's. there was one nice civic with an h22 in it.
the vw's were sweeet.
does anybdy know how they get that flat black paint??
also about the girls, what were the names of the two smokin asians on the 100 level in the silver bikins selling their pics
ill put some pics up later cuz im not at home
and can anybody tell me if vida guerra or tila was actually there? or were they jsut teasing us with them on the website
what was up with the bimmer/civic monstrosity??

i do agree that there was alot of ricey cars there but there were some really nice ones also, seeing the yellow civic hatch with the b16 turbo setup making 443 hp made it all worth it for me. Also, there was an orange/black 1990 integra that made me spooge along with the integra with k20 and rsx dash.

by that i only meant that its so easy to get in. wash ur car in and out, buy some rims/tires ($1000) lower it ($600) and drop in a system ($400)
thats like half the people on this board.

I thought the best cars in the show were the 2 MR2's...the orange and silver one and that EG coupe with the carbon fiber hood, fornt bumper, fenders, side skirts, trunk and rear bumper. When they had the light shining on it, it looked so nice.
Most of the systems were **** too. Thats mainly why I went....I was pissed. The only good system I heard was the celica (i think) with the 2 W7's and the hatch with the 2 15inch W1s.
Lucky i got in for free. LAAAAAAAAAME
