Some of the parts were nice, the airbrush guy was pretty good...

Not impressed when the "Professional" tuner did donuts 100 feet down the street from the shop in the burbs...but hell if someone wants to rail my car and then put 20k+ into my car, knock urself out...

i agree with that the paint job is nice and the wheels are nice..
but as soon as the cameras left i would be in the driveway with a hairdryer taking that finetuned sticker off the windshield..

if you say i am ungrateful and not giving them recognition.. that is not it..
it just looks tacky. give them a small space.. not that big ish..

I thought it was kind of weaksauce, they didn't even show a clip of the car driving around after all the parts were on, they only showed the 325whp dyno run..

I guess I'm the odd man out because I kind of enjoyed it. It's just nice to see a show that caters to imports as opposed to all the domestic car shows. I am curious when and if they will have an Evo on there.

I like the way the color sits on my car, but a custom paint job from those guys wouldn't be so bad either.

I too also enjoyed it. I guess because I am used to only seeing nascar and/or muscle cars on there. It was nice to see a show actually doing something with an import thats worth a $hit. Its amazing, I have been watching that channel off and on for the past couple months and have seen one Evo on there and it was only on screen for about a second or two. We'll see how it goes.

I think if the show focused a little more on performance and tuning instead of wheels and paint like many other shows it would be better.
