It wins on nighttime style more than daytime looks!
The goal is a Caucasian-style racer look.
A cohesive, mature custom car.
HONDA
Civic coupe…
Two subwoofers are installed behind the rear seats, beautifully lit.
HONDA
Civic Ferio
The cockpit puts you in a race-car mood, with extra gauges and a MOMO steering wheel.
Neon tubes run along the sides; a pair of thick exhaust tips at the rear add style.
HONDA
Loaded with nighttime details: ViS front aero, neon tubes, Euro taillights, clear lenses, and more. A powerful audio setup is installed in the rear too.
ViS front aero…
Accord
The exterior is unified with ViS aero, so it looks focused on appearance, but the owner's main point…
The wing completes a Caucasian-style racing look.
…the concept is a lime-green…
…the body color also has a white, Western-inspired look.
…it has air suspension by Kinova.
It opens wide with a dramatic ‘boom!’
A powerful subwoofer has been installed…
The gull-wing doors and hood swing dramatically upward, making for a bold and fun build.
HONDA
Orion subwoofers behind the rear seats look and sound powerful.
The auxiliary-gauge surround has been retrimmed, and Evo V seats make the interior hard to believe.
HONDA
He deliberately chose this car for a racing style…
HONDA
…
A lavish custom with a Celica front-end conversion, a sealed rear, and dramatic gull-wing doors.

The body is repainted pearl orange and fitted with full Weーバ Sports aero…
An ambitious build that deliberately takes on racer styling. Repainted in the light yellow used on the Integra Type R. The aero kit is a secret.
The audio system is the focal point inside.
…it really stands out!
An aggressively styled look that's really cool!!
Emerald green is the key!
Left-hand-drive, US-spec sport compact.
The huge GT wing is disproportionate to the body size. The lights have been changed to Euro taillights.
HONDA
Prelude
A modified iS aero and BMW-style front end add volume and impact.

Civic coupe
The exterior is coordinated in white and red, and the interior controls…
…have also been extensively customized.

The Bomex aero is impressive, but…
The muffler is surprisingly from Yoshimura…
The cameo-blue paint adds to its sport-compact character, and the parts may even be from a motorcycle!
ViS aero gives it a substantial profile.
The emerald body and black accents immediately catch the eye.
Because the base car is left-hand drive, the owner was careful to balance the look. ViS aero runs along the rear and sides…
The wing is a factory Impreza part.
Racing-inspired front end and gauges.
A special circuit-tuned build.
It looks understated but is strong on performance!
Auxiliary gauges are extensively added, so you feel like a racer as soon as you get in!
HONDA
CR-X del Sol
This engine produces 650 horsepower. The engine bay is finished in chrome.
NISSAN
Skyline GT-R
A Cusco wing and Weーバ Sports aero bring the exterior together.

The VS front aero looks fast, and the purple-and-pink interior is just as striking!
This GT-R is tuned for circuit use and serious driving. The dress-up bill alone comes to nearly ¥10 million!
The engine has been swapped for a B18C, and an NX nitrous system installed! It's built for speed, but Euro taillights, strobes, and other details add plenty of visual appeal too.
A style inspired by the streets of Los Angeles.
A textbook example of a front-end swap.
HONDA
A 15-inch monitor and NOS are installed in the luggage compartment.
A skillful front-end swap transforms the Civic coupe into an R…-style face…
The stylish one…

The goal is LA street style; next, he'll focus on upgrading the audio.

Featured in our October issue, Y's Factory's Civic coupe has an RX-8-style front…
She enjoys driving and modifying cars, and is a real enthusiast who can even change a bug guard herself.
She hangs out near the coast—in Fujisawa, Chigasaki, and Yokohama. Her type is a slightly chubby guy.
