Wow, the car looks amazing... But I'm sorry when it comes to mags, it's as some ppl said, it's not flashy enough for one of those, they like way over the top "look at me" types.

yeah I understand where your coming from...I like the clean look on the exterior...when you say flashy what more are you trying to get at? I have the whole engine bay polished, custom system, interior and trunk, custom mounted gauges, custom headlights, tailights, clear corners. ATI procharged.

My constructive criticism if you are really interested in a mag feature
Exterior/stance:
Sevas wheels are kinda bleh, not really "ballin mag worthy". Offsets are pretty conservative as well as widths. Could use a custom color paintjob, the silver doesn't stand out much. OEM spoiler also doesn't cut it.
Trunk/Audio:
Install looks very amateur. No color matching, custom fiberglass etc
Interior:
Way too stock looking and beige interiors will hardly ever garner a feature article, especially with OEM seats, steering wheel, and an automatic. Guages aren't matching and the pods don't look very professional.
Engine bay:
Needs more highlights, all I see is a little bit of chrome bling. Need more accessories, STB, oil catch can, painted battery covers and radiator support etc.
Basically, nothing on your car is innovative and looks like something any number of members could have put together, compared to some of the custom cars on this site tha still have yet to be featured, your car has a long way to go.

thanks for the comments redlude.

to add to your comments...STB cannot be added to my car because of the way the piping is ran...since that pic of my engine bay i have the ARC oil catch can, koyo radiator, I have painted batteries covers in the picture matched to my factory color. the guages since this pic have been changed out and custom mounted with all defi gauges.

since my car is my daily driver I couldnt lose to much trunk space which is why I didnt go for the custom fiberglass trunk. door panels I am in the process of having done suede as well as the back seat and roof panel. Another thing is that i dont want to lose all the functions that i bought the car for...i.e heated seats, adjustable up, down, back etc. no trunk to put anything in....steering wheel controls. I would love to change out the seats, steering column but cant seem to grasp the payment of this car and then taking everything out.

anyways thats my imput to your post and what has been changed since the pictures put up.

no mag would shoot that car the way it is. the interior is too stock and your auto.

there are tons of g/z's with more mods that have a hard time making into magazines.

unless your andy and have a stock z with bolt on's and stickers and make cover. lord what a joke.

g35man04: Are you submitting these photos to try and get a feature article? Or are you submitting the pics for the readers ride sections?
