Pics of my MODE PARFUME Y33 Cima body kit

hey guys, thanks for all your comments and PMs about my mode parfume kit, since my other thread contains a lot of thread-jacking and non-topic related commentaries, here's a clean, fresh thread to showcase this kit... thanks again to HIGH SOCIETY VIP for bringing into the US for me and without further delay, enjoy the pics! [b]please keep your replies on this thread on-topic and related to the style, fitment, design and anything else related to this body kit... thanks!  ;)[/b]

i gotta say, the mode parfume is BY FAR the best body kit i've ever owned in my life. the 2nd being Abt and the 3rd being Oettinger. the fitment is SUPERB and the fenders all line up and the predrilled holes all lines up w/the OEM/stock holes. there is NO MODDING, NO SHAVING, NO SANDING necessary. all my customers and people who drove by this past wknd were impressed and amazed... thanks to all those who came by the shop and/or for helping me out w/the installation. couldn't have got it on there without you guys' help. we XK brothas are XK for life. the whip went into the spray booth this morning for custom body/fender work and paint...i took the sides and the rear bumper off to transport it to the paint shop. i'll post up more pics of the finished product once the paint is dried and after the wet-sanding :) VR, mikey

the securely bubbled-wrapped body kit, very tightly packaged

that looks awesome!!! One question though...how much lower is that bumper compared to the OEM one?

[quote=Dark Anghell ]that looks awesome!!! One question though...how much lower is that bumper compared to the OEM one?[/quote]

why thank you sir... oh shoots, i didn't measure the stock height before putting on the front kit and since i have air runners, i never really took notice. i can tell you that in comparison to the stock bumper, the mode parfume is much lower and sculpted a lot more pronouncedly on the front lip side and on the bottom when it meets the side skirts. the kit just flows man, the front to the sides to the rear.... VR, mikey

Very Nice Mikey ....Can't wait to see this in a couple of weeks :coolsmiley:

Damn that sweet mike!!! 8) Can't wait to see it all together..

Pretty :smitten:

Oh i am soo jealous (partly because you have a Y33, and mostly because of the kit)...

Do you have any pics of the rear and sides?  Did you even put those pieces on?  How do you know if the kit fit 'superb' if you didn't put on the rear and sides?  When are you going to mount your switches for your airrunners?

And what do you mean 'custom body/fender work'?  Are you gonna widebody your Q?  

You probably won't answer my questions because you ignored me on the other forums...that's okay...just reflects your expertise...

Mike, I hope you really finish this car and not sell it...you have such a nice color scheme and kit to sell it...I just want to see one fully built car come out of your shop, that will be sweet!  So far, it's coming along beautifully...

And where is your exhaust and grill?

[quote=PagongLS ]Pretty :smitten: [/quote]

sup man, thanks for your kind remark man, i think i may have a buyer for your amistad type d dude, i'll let u know and i think the dude should post up on the xk boards. peas out man, mikey

How did the rest of the kit fit, any pics?

[quote=Dominik ]Oh i am soo jealous (partly because you have a Y33, and mostly because of the kit)...[/quote]

thanks man, i hope you get a Y33 too bro and if u need anything for whatever jdm vip car of your choice, go to HIGH SOCEITY VIP and johnny will take good care man. i'll post up pics once the car comes out of the spray booth. peas out man! mikey

now thats what i call japanese shit..packed in good boxes n fits nicely..like u said no bullshit or whatso ever...lookin good man..can't wait till its done..keep us updated 8)

Great job!

Never follow!

Its would be cheaper and easier for me to source my own kits from Japan, since i am in Australia ;)

Oh, and Y33 was never released here. Its technically allowed to be imported; but the costs are high for low demand cars (as opposed to skylines/stagea's etc), so nobody has bothered yet

Hence why i was jealous!

Nice pictures..I can't wait to see what you got going on.....Mode Parfume + Y33 = TRU VIP/EXE CAR !

[quote=vip_porn ]

[/quote]
I don't get it. Seriously, can someone fill me in to this never follow stuff? I mean, to me, never follow means to build something NEVER built before...not just never built state side, I mean if that's the case then some of us did that long ago. I'd say what is done here is never original. Sorry Mikey, I mean I'm sure it will look nice and all, but it's just not creative...so on that note to each his own. Of course you won't respond to this due to your blah, blah, blah...but hey, I was civil with my response. At least give me that much.

holy shit can't believe this is really happening!
mode parfume Y33 = the ultimate hotness

Be nice Dan and take the ears of it.

The mode kit is definately my favorite, but i too don't understand the never follow bit. Its a fucking out the box bodykit. Its gonna look hard as hell when finished, but be ground breaking? no. not even close.

This site is entertaining.

BTW, I'm anxious to see it complete.

thanks bro! 

this is a big step.....one of my favorite kits for the y33 :smitten:


but I just dont get it >:(......................why, just why do they have to come with that danm indention for the freakin front plate :-[

I've always had my front holes covered and painted for a sleeker look. 

Prob. because its a requirement to have a front plate in Japan. And also because they actually dig the whole moulded numberplate bracket look

Awesome....simply awesome....now, where did you get it?????  ;)

it's more original than your C klass that is FOR SURE.

I'd rather do a older model 89+ E class than mess with a girly C class. That's the car that all the girls go for when they are broke but want to bling. that's a girls car. That's the car of choice for girls that charge up their LV purse that they can't afford.

Please, don't dog on other's before you take a good look at yourself.

well I didn't know that. 

and my point still stands, Z is more common than anything he has insulted.

Which is why you should apologize and then we can get back on topic -> the Mode Parfume Y33 being built. It is very pretty.

HIGH SOCIETY VIP is where i got it from... excellent service, superb follow-ups... great experience and i am one happy customer here in hawaii...

Z common yes, 2+2 twin turbo Z in america..VERY uncommon. Final Konnexion Z32 in USA..one. So I'd say it's as uncommon as you could get.

Your point is moot, nice homework.

Now, to get back on topic. It will be nice to see it at the show if it can get done in time. I'm sure it will look classy if the fitment and all is right.

it's still a Z.

if I had a Soarer with rocket engine it would still be a soarer.

if I had a soarer that used vegetable oil for fuel it would still be a soarer.

moot my ass.

actually if you had a Soarer in the USA it would be rare as shit!!!!!!!!!!!!! but if you had a SC300/400 it would be common. Sorry just had to lighten the mood a bit.

but I didn't I said its a SC300/400 because like I stated before a soarer in the states would be sick shit and like I already said it was ment as a joke so that we could get back on topic! 

anyways, what wheels are going on this Q. The kit is sick but the wheels need to be right to make this thing just wonderfully beautiful. The kit is only half the battle.

owned what ? u got to be out of your mind.

if I had a pink Z would that make it one of a kind ? same sh*t.

I don't even understand what is going on anymore, is this little bash because of the Never Follow comment Mike made a while back (he also said the car was going to look really nice) but seriously can this crap stop, and for god sakes can some one explain the "never follow" stuff, I thought maybe it was on MP's website but I didn't see it anywhere (it does have a nice VIP business slogan ring to it.) that to me was the only way that never follow stuff made sense.

Moderators please take note that it's your other members who keep attacking me...not me attacking them. BTW, there is a pink Z here in Hawaii...like Pepto-pink and she's seems to love it.
I am very calm right now and I am not just typing things out of hate or for being pissed off. I stated the "never follow" comment because it didn't make sense. It's an Audi campaign slogan:
[url=http://www.neverfollow.com]www.neverfollow.com[/url]

Now this would make sense with his Audi, but certainly not with this car. I was trying to understand it otherwise.

That's why I posted the weblink. I do understand the Audi part, but he uses that as his own slogan for more than just the audi, not just because he has an audi. That is what we were trying to figure out. My other member was pointing out that he was copying the Mode demo car which is what he's done on most of his recent cars...hence the irony. Isn't that following? I'm not trying to be a dick, I just don't understand the logic. Maybe Pimplux_A4 should chime in to end the confusiion and maybe change his screen name too. I'm sure Will would appreciate that.

What do you think will happen after you post up like 3 or 4 times " I LIKE TO BUST CHOPS " Everyone is just going to love you NOW.

We had a pretty tight knit forum on here even with the Hawaii Boys............ Even if we all didnt get along we NEVER had stuff on here posted like this until you came around this last 2 weeks. 200 posts in 2 weeks wow that is a record on here you must be BORED or its your goal to cause hate and discontent and never come back.

Now you want them to see you are NOT being the attacker. This will NOT stop unless you change YOU STOP and Im sure the rest of the Hawaii COOL CATS and the REST of the FOLKS ON HERE will be back to being COOL!!

Folks on here that are VERY VERY RESPECTFULL are now POSTING stuff they never said before even from your crew. 

ORIGINAL GANGSTER from PiMpLUX that took off w/ VIP and one of the 1st from Hawaii now out of Cali doesnt come on here w/ a BIG HEAD. I dont need to mention any names cause his UCF10 is one of the 1st VIPcars in ALL USA that folks ADMIRE. HE HAD NO HELP from anyone except a VIPcar or VIPstyle magazine. 


Moderators just need to start deleting posts as soon as you see it going to cause a problem. Like this post DELETE

so, what wheels to compliment that kit?

Thank you for your input. You can't deny that I have a wealth of knowledge.  My info may not always agree with you, but it doesn't give you the right to have at me each time I post something. You should know better since you're a more senior member of this forum. Do you really think you're the only gaijin to ever live in Japan who was into cars? I'm just trying to say that I came on here with knowledge, but since i was new and had a low post count I was instantly unknowledgable...which is rediculous. If that's the mentality of this place then I really don't belong here and i belong on a forum with open minded more experienced people. I have helped people on this forum, on several occasions. The only time this crap comes up is when someone feels they have to challange me to a gumtape death match. I mean come on. There's nothing wrong with keeping people in check..it's the internet. Hell, you might be a chick and we'd never know it! (don't take offense, I'm not calling you a chick, it was just an example).

With that aside..are you using the DTS wheels you've got like the Mode car has?

[quote=shawnthemonster ]

aloha shawnthemonster, i am a big fan. i am helping yoshi install his tails which he bought from you and i will be ordering his LED bulbs for him; he just stopped by last night. he and i are buddies and members of executive konnexion.

carlssonRL, thank you for selling me your carlsson 1/6 wheels; they have been repolished, reconditioned, repainted and they are flawless!!! they now belong to my customer who's rocking it on a 2006 lexus is250, fabulous kit (which he bought from me) and fabulous exhaust. we have intense mods in mind for his car.  as for 300ZXs in hawaii, my business partner neal has a 1991 300ZX twin turbo (down right now due to new clutch and flywheel) and i come across guys w/TT Zs in our store all the time, asking for parts. i see 'em on the road here in hawaii as well.

[b][u]robert {* *} and VSC mods, how you doing guys! just to clarify that i have never made a "Never Follow" comment to anybody on this thread at anytime. have a great day, ehh robert: i'll chat w/you later tonite on msn messenger. btw, my hawaii custom vanity license plate does says NVR-FLW: never follow. (great way to beat around the bush to try to insult somebody i guess)[/u][/b]

yes sir, i PM'd the mods about changing my SN and other settings to address this problem. my intent is not mislead anybody but to be a part of this bomb-ass, cool website which i go on all the time now. the VSC dudes are cool, offer great info and almost everybody is objective and even criticisms (when presented tactfully and intelligently) are welcomed by me coz' i learn from my mistakes. i'll AOL AIM you later bro about 'dem FUSAs. your friend in servitude, mikey

thank you guys for bringing this thread back to normal. I for one just wanted to know what that never follow thing ment. It seems kind of weird on a buyers side of things, but now knowing that its audi's slogan I would say it makes a bit more sense :) Pimplux_A4 what kind of wheels are going on this ride man, we all want to know, and I for one will be eagerly sitting by my computer hitting refresh and waiting for a response, okay maybe not but you get my point.

Jake

Mike, I understand you feel like you are being attacked, but you really need to go thru NG posts(all of your members). Think for a second why we are having this discussion in thread that was designated to show pics of MP kit. 

To be honest, I'm disappointed in the way you have behaved on this forum considering you are a JP dealer. The constant picking on Mikey by your crew, truly bothers me..

Please explain what you were trying to convey here...

Why didn't you try to actually prove you had a strong understanding and beneficial wealth of knowledge rather than simply engaging in arguments and "claiming" that you have some great / unmatched knowledge. Aside from a few Japanese terms, I really haven't read anything in any of your post that are ground-breaking or even helpful. In-fact, I find that much of what you post is either a useless comment such as "nice," or an unwarranted opinion. This place was pretty cool before you started coming here. Let your cars and post prove your experience and knowledge. Right now, your posts only show that; you have a knack for unprofessional and petty bickering, and you enjoy claiming that you have some great VIP knowledge. Unfortunately your claims have gone unfounded.

Talk is cheap.

White mike: you may think you're calm and all... which you probably are when you're sitting there posting non-stop, but you're still making the most trite and asinine posts I've seen in a while, anywhere... and they're just so damn useless and annoying. Word is you get kicked off other forums... and you may think it's for "speaking your mind"... but it may more be for inciting stupidity with a lot of initial stupidity on your part. It may be fun to rile people up now and then, but everything in moderation.. otherwise it gets real old, real fast. And posting shit that's controversional but profound and thought-provoking is one thing, and always welcome by people with half a brain... but posting just random stupid blurts that neither further any discussion, and just serve to poke jabs at other people over and over and over and over is sorta a waste of time eh? In the past week it's starting to look like Hawaii is full of honda kids in their teens... but wait, how old are you guys? >HAHA< You're in your 30s! Come on now all you hawaiin fucks... just stop trying to turn this site into your own little personal love/hate chat site, and acutally ACT VIP. In fact, other than all the bickering, and back patting/ass kissing, and name dropping these past weeks, I don't think any of you have really contributed any REAL USEFUL info to this site! Feel free to go back and review all your posts to prove me wrong, please. But the mere fact that you might have to should spark a little thought in your noggin eh? Hmmmmmmmmmmm
Anyway, the majority of this isn't directed at just white mike, but at all you guys participating in the monkey shit toss mess, but mike in particular cuz he's the main instigator overall. You're a lot more laid back and cool in real life when I met you.. and I used to think that would be the case in general, but your conduct online leaves much to be desired. Like I said, it's one thing to be an asshole with purpose, and another to be just an asshole that's sorta... lost.

Wheels???

Yakuza...I didn't claim to be anything. I said I have knowledge..which I do. I never said i was the know it all, that title is claimed already.

For One Ton, yes I was kicked off the Executive Konnexion boards...ONE BOARD. And this is the board of a crew that I helped found (not as a member mind you, but just to help since I was knowledgable) and designed their logo for them and what not. I was betrayed by ONE individual who loves to flaunt anything and everything he can that will make people think he is more cool. You want the honest truth? The truth that person will deny no matter what? I'd love for everyone to hear it...but NO, I won't post it here for the fact that I AM a good person, better than that person will ever be. And he should thank me for being this cool. At this moment I am not calm..but I'm not being a prick. Yes, I poked at Mikey for his blatant sales pitches and over commercializing his posts. I admit to that, we don't need to see shit like that on the boards...that belongs in Magazines and newspapers. That or if he really wants to advertise like that he should pay the forums to be a sponsor. I would never say a word if that was the case. I just tire of hearing him pitch things out that are unfounded...then trying to act professional by not saying anything...deceiving isn't it. If you guys really want to ban me then that's fine, but do it to me for just cause. This is rediculous...I hope you're happy Mr. Chen...

Maya RT5= sexy 
as long as the fitment is good (no doubts just saying) that should be one hell of a sick looking car!

hey, yoshi's a great person (and very patient)

i am really close to yoshi, i have helped his sisters and other family members and i continue to value his friendship. he is always down to help out the xk crew, i would not have gotten my 42-inch plasma if it wasn't for him. as for the estima, we talked about various wheels and fitments, perhaps you can enlighten us big shawn, what is the stock offset of yoshi's offset (he doesn't know) and what is the most aggressive he can go? i suggested 29mm all around and using my eastwood fender roller or my louisville slugger bat (thanks dave!). any opinion or ideas would be appreciate. if you don't wanna post up here in light of all the commentaries, pls feel free to post up on the xk boards mang.

thank you guys for bringing this thread back to normal. I for one just wanted to know what that never follow thing ment. It seems kind of weird on a buyers side of things, but now knowing that its audi's slogan I would say it makes a bit more sense :) Pimplux_A4 what kind of wheels are going on this ride man, we all want to know, and I for one will be eagerly sitting by my computer hitting refresh and waiting for a response, okay maybe not but you get my point.

aloha jake,

i purchased 2 sets of the same wheels for my car.

[u][b]Brakes/Wheels/Tires:[/b][/u]
(for daily use) 
Maya RT5/Trafficstar RTS by Riverside Co., Ltd.-Japan
19"x9.5" (front; 29mm offset) chrome; 19"x10.5" (rear; 29mm offset) chrome
KICS Japan +10mm spacer (front); KICS Japan +20mm spacer (rear)
Dunlop Sportmaxx 225-35ZR-19 (front); Dunlop Direzza 265-30ZR-19 (rear)

(for car shows/display use) 
Maya RT5/Trafficstar RTS by Riverside Co., Ltd.-Japan
19"x9" (front; +14mm offset) silver; 19"x10" (rear; +4mm offset) silver
Dunlop Sportmaxx 225-35ZR-19 (front); Dunlop Direzza 265-30ZR-19 (rear)

also, i am very fortunate to be sponsored by ROTORA for my audi and we're negotiating a sponsorship with ROTORA, ENDLESS and Brembo (Cody-Allen from my car club, Executive Konnexion, is sponsored by ENDLESS USA on his Aristo, hopefully one day soon 2JZ-swapped by SP), i'm looking at 6-pot BBKs for the front and 4-pot BBKs for the rear. the brackets will be a one-off from a 2006 infiniti FX35. which caliper color do you think would look better? satin blue or chromed? i'm leaning towards the blue right now...

Have to go Endless if you are doing the Mode kit :D

Endless is the shizzy and so are the wheels, damn that thing is going to look great, I think the blue will be kinda a attention getter behind the shinny new wheels so its a tough call... I think either choice is going to look great on that car!

it's more original than your C klass that is FOR SURE.

I'd rather do a older model 89+ E class than mess with a girly C class. That's the car that all the girls go for when they are broke but want to bling. that's a girls car. That's the car of choice for girls that charge up their LV purse that they can't afford.

Please, don't dog on other's before you take a good look at yourself.
[/quote]

Did you really just post that? 

Look guys, this is getting out of hand.  I live in Hawaii, I'm the one with the first Y33 on Airrunners in the U.S. (Shin had to custom order the airrunner kit, serial number on that bad boy is 00001) thanks to Johnny (thanks again man) and I've gotton 'some' stuff from Robert...the guy with the weird face as his sn...I know a lot of you guys on here...some personally and some over the interation of PM's or IM's.  I even talked to some of you on the phone for 20+ minutes about cars.  And some people know me too...I am truly pasionate in what I do.  Currently, I work for free at a body shop just so my JP UCF10 will be done by the upcoming Aug 24th show.  I've had this car for ~14 days.  Another Hawaii guy on here who doesn't post much saw the car in person the day I bought it.  Rusted and pounded in fender, hood, etc.  The body kit was a story in itself.  Point is, I'm here for fun AND the truth.  What good is information if it's all false.  

Back to my point, I'd like to think i'm cool here...I just quit [url]www.executivekonnexion.com[/url] to join night garage.  Why?  Because it's a better crew for me.  We all work on our own cars and have experience and knowledge is different aspects of car modding...whether it be welding, paint, mechanical, detailing, etc.  I'm one of those guys who can talk about all types of cars for hours.  It's pretty much in my blood.  X/K are a bunch of cool cats.  They have a tight nit crew but that's it.  With the exception of a couple members, most don't work on their own car.  That's not my style.  I don't rely on friends or spare cash laying around to install my parts.  I get dirty and greasy.  Back to my point, I don't have a problem with anyone, I think.  If you do, please feel free to PM me.  

Honestly, me and Mikey used to be tight...He got me into real estate and do genuinely owe him a great deal beacause of that.  Recently, both of us started a business.  I don't advertise the way he does...and to be honest, it is annoying.  And I also see how a certain someone purposely quotes everyone's post and replies to them except mine...especially when I ask a valid question...a question brecause I'm serious, not makind trouble.  I think car forums should be for the car enthusiast, not the hobbyist.  It's my own opintion, so shush.  Being a hobbyist is cool but I enjoy cars MUCH more than that.  And yes, I understand that not everyone is into cars as I am but if you're gonna post something about 'claims to fame', let it be impressive or at least let it be your own.  Not something out of a catalog.  Why have near spitting image of a car that has already been done before.  Yes, the parts and wheels might look sick as hell, but be creative.  There isn't a VIP car that can run ONE certain type of wheel.  Throw some ideas around and see it in your mind.  Not on a page of VIP car.  

Pretty much all I'm saying is don't group night garage, [url]www.executivekonnexion.com[/url], 'Hawaii guys', as one category.  I speak for myself only dammit.  I'm cool with pretty much everyone on both sides of this 'fiasco'.  Seach my previous posts, and you'll see I've been pretty much been acting the way I've been since way back...Yes, I do posts more...but that is because I'm getting more involved with these costly machines and I love it...GO VIP!
__________________

And another thing, I'm not in it for no one else but myself.  I don't look to get sponsorships, they pretty much came to me (with the help it NG-C Klasse, thanks Mike!).  Correct me if I'm wrong but the cars that are sponsored in X/K were sought after by the individual.  Not anyone's shop.  I want recognition for what I've done, I kinda thrive on it but I want the recognition because it came to me.  Not because I forced myself upon a certain company.

WOW. I dont come here too often anymore and am shocked/ashamed on how things have turned in the past few weeks. I cant believe some of the things I've read that hawaii guys are posting. I dont understand how there can be so much differences between a good bunch of guys. I personally know PMP LEX,Pimplux A4 and believe it or not even NG C klasse. I have never thought in all my life these guys would have grudges against eachother over cars. I admit they all know their s*** when it comes to cars. I have asked all of them a thing or two about cars atleast once. I hope things settle down on VSC as we dont need this behavior to clutter the boards. Everything I have read in this post was a bunch of crap that we could have all done without. I give props to all three guys as they all have unique show quality rides that they all worked hard on. I personally dont care for Z32's but Mikes ride is something special and I watched it progress whenever I went to his past employers shop. Mikeys A4 is very well done too with some tasteful mods. Dennis' rides have both come a long way from his hard work as well. Hopefully at next weeks show we can all just get along and check out some fine rides and check out dem scandalous b*tch*s :o ;D :smitten:

Yo, it's all good. We squashed it..well, at least I did. I made another post about it. Night Garage will continue to do what we have for over the past 6 years..build sick, solid cars. Things will settle down...and others will learn how to work business a r o u n d the forums and not in it. It is sad that things went down at all, but pride and egos can sometimes get out of hand and need a wake up call. The call is over..so everyone hang up the phone and move on...

Maya RT5? Hm, I gotta say I'm actually a bit disappointed, I was hoping you weren't building a replica car. Are those in fact the wheels you're using?

hello sir, just selling the daily set for now but i may sell the show set before december so that i can pick up another set of rims, the idea is to maybe go staggered 20s on a super low disk, staggered but not as deep a lip. the link is here: [url]http://vipstylecars.com/forum/index.php?topic=4481.0[/url]

I think when the Y33 is slammed, it is lower with 19's rather than 20's... dunno if that matters, but 20's will set you apart for sure...let us know what you come up with..lol...Here is a Photoshop of my car with 20's..My car is not lowered yet , but I know yours is so I chopped it up to give you an quick Idea of what it would look with 20's....(FYI I will be lowering it very very soon ;))..Hope this helps you...

To each their own. I just appreciate creativity more. Copying a car is very simple and takes no imagination. I think that's the point some people were trying to make. If that's what he likes then I guess it's okay for him.

Yes, I agree, to each their own. People should mod their car how they wany it, no matter if it's been done before. Build it for yourself and no one else.

oh no, no shame at all... the 1st place VIP infiniti/nissan trophy went to my friend, will lau, with his vip'd out cefiro, very deserving to win, the whip is very vip'd out and will is a super-cool guy. nothing on his cefiro went untouched and i give 110% props to him, he deserved the win hands-down. on top of all that, he is very humble, very mellow and he got me in the game in the first place back in 2002-03...

here's an old pic (now he's got work vs-xx's)...

Gee, PMP-LEX, is that comment really needed? What difference does it make if this Will Lau is his friend? If the're friends, their friends. Just shut up and leave it at that. It's guys like you that seem to start up drama on these boards.

a-holesniper and gotjokes_VIP...I know you didn't just sign up on this forum to gather or share useful information...your previous posts are an obvious give away...

My comment was made WITH a smiley...hence the joke...want some more?   :D :D :D :D

Will Lau and Mike used to be friends until something happened...Mike is on here claiming to be friends with everyone and that's cool...he's doing his thang...The pics Mike posted was from about 3 years ago...when everything was ONCE all good...things are different now...talked to Will today...infact, just got done BBQ'ing at his house TONIGHT...I'm just stating the obvious fact (well at least to the people who know better) that Mike is acting like he's best buds with everyone...fooled you guys didn't he? Is that Justin in the second pic? Are you guys still buddies too?

Its would be cheaper and easier for me to source my own kits from Japan, since i am in Australia ;)

Oh, and Y33 was never released here. Its technically allowed to be imported; but the costs are high for low demand cars (as opposed to skylines/stagea's etc), so nobody has bothered yet

Hence why i was jealous!

however, i believe you guys get the JDM RHD evos and skylines in aussie.. I SHOULD BE JEALOUS OF YOU!!!

I thought the same thing is this really needed to be said...........

JACKASS.......... :D

Notice the smile IM JUST JOKING........... :idiot2:

I dont know how you all were brought up in life but the way you all carry yourselfs ON HERE SUCKS.

I dont even know Mikey cant you all just let it be...... I guess since you all didnt shake hands....................... then its ON??

Its probably end up being me that gets BANNED around here cause I dont like this. I expect more from you guys since you all be here for a while. Maybe we are boring around here and this is your guys way to bring life into this forum. 

If you think im just going to sit back and let you all carrry on like this THINK AGAIN

I actually shook his hand at the show AND apologized to him for everything that went on...most of which wasn't my fault but apologized none the least...All I'm saying is keep it real...Tell the truth and no one will call you on it...PLAIN AND SIMPLE...Not a hard task to tackle...I know most of the guys in Hawaii...I know them REALLY well...some of the other Hawaii guys might not get along but whatever...that's between them...everything I've said on this forum was/is real...I'm not here to start s***...but like you Robert, I'm not going to sit back and let everyone thnk a group of people are teaming up on one person...I give props AND criticism where it's due...I can speak my mind and I'm sure everyone else can.  So what if a few people think negatively on certain subjects...Can you expect us ALL to get along?  No, but we can be civil...AND TACTFUL

Some of us might be in the same car club or was in the same car club. I was in all three that rep here on these boards...pimplux, executivekonnexion and am currently in Night Garage...why the change? Because it was personal choice. The people all car clubs are still my friends and are all awesome individuals in their own right...but don't categorize me into a 'group'. I write what I feel (while being tactful most of the time) and that's that.

After nearly 18 months of being a so called "Hawaiian" member on this forum (Even though I'm not a Hawaiian and I'm Half japanese half Chnese ;D)this is my first post :o See all of us "Hawaiiains" don't get into it with each other like some other members have suggested. We have been good members too :angel:

Anyway Dennis, I wanted to stay out of this and have, but since Mike I and Mike C shook hands at the show, you as well seem to want to squash this as well, I'd say that is the way to go. I've known who Mike I was for a long time now since I was one of the original additional members to PimpLux back in 2001. I never hung out with him, but over the years through Dave and Will I know about his knowledge base and what he has to offer. There is no doubt he knows the scene well and can offer a lot of insight. I just wish sometimes you guys would be a little more tacful as you pointed out. But that is okay I know his posting style is his style, but sometimes it is hard for the rest of us to know when it is joking and when he is not since we don't hang around him all the time. I probably was one of the first if not first member to meet you in person back when you joined PimpLux. I just think it is kind of sad for the rest of us to watch some of our friends go at it like this, but like you said, not everyone can get along with each other so to each their own. The other thing you said is don't categorize yourself in a group. Same with the rest of the X/K members. Like you said, we are all individuals and do things our own way. I too don't like to be included in some of the views you guys have about X/K. All the members know I never wanted the PimpLux/Executive Konnexion split in the first place. Right now I'm with X/K due to circomstance and because Dave personally asked me to stick it out with them.

NIghts Garage members are building some really nice cars. I also think a lot or X/K as well as PimpLux members build some nice cars. So what if some paid for installation and others made their own parts from scratch? Everyone has different skill levels. Not everyone was born with a Tig welder in one hand and breaker bar in the other ;D Personally, I don't know what level of respect I've earned if any from the members of Nights Garange, but I just wish all 3 car clubs the best and just wish everyone would just do their own thing, build their own thing, and let the cars speak for themselves. Others that don't know us personally can make up their own mind about the cars and individuals so I feel there is no need to inform others about it as they can draw their own conclusions based on their own experience with the individual.

 ;D :2funny: :coolsmiley: :angel: 

haha you hawaiian guys crack me up. :) too funny ;D

anyhow this is all for fun so you guys should all just get along, you guys all have kick-ass cars. The best in the entire United States for sure. You guys are spearheading the style into the United states so give yourselves a huge pat on the back. :coolsmiley: :smitten:

Chris..thanks for the post. I appreciate the fact that you understand. That's what's so hard is that most people don't. The only reason I've kept as much cool as I have is because of members like Dave and yourself. I remember when Will approached me about starting Pimplux. It was cool to see someone else interested in VIP back then as there were only a few of us with any knowledge about it period, like Leroy. Things were fine with it untill some members pretty much overthrew Will because he wanted to keep things real VIP and not euro like others were making it become...that is when the split began. Will and Spam stayed on with Pimplux and the others started XK. When I got more active again with Night Garage, Will and I talked about merging it again like it was before. So now Pimplux and Night Garage are one in the same...pretty much the way it used to be back in the day. I understand that Mikey gets a little over excited about things, but he needs to be careful not to step on toes. As Dennis said..it's all about tact. Now group hug everyone and lets move on. ;)

sup man, my customer has been in korea. he should be back in about 2 wks. i will then take pics of the carlsson 1/6's that you've sold me and post them up. again, they've been repaired, repolished, repainted and re-clear coated. the finish product is a 100% blem-free set of wheels that's going on a fabulous'd out (aero, cf pillar, wing, windshield banner, hood ornament, etc., etc.) lexus is250. he's doing the december hot import nights and with your carlsson's 1/6's he'd be a stiff competitor!!! respectfully, mikey

MY HERO's :smitten:

Back on topic. Congratulations Mike for building an awsome looking Y-33. Mode Parfume is by far one of my favorite kits now. All their kits for all their cars seem to just look good. For those that don't know, I hinted to Mike that I would buy his Y-33 at the show, but it looks like he wants to keep it and has some pretty wild plans for it in the future :o

Hehehe, Thanks. When it comes to VIP style I'm still the student. That is why I only have 3 posts in 18 months (Not counting the years before I had to regesiter here twice). I'm here just to observe and learn, then I'll do things my way ;D

thank you chris! finally, a post that has to do with my original topic/thread... i dunno, i still might put the y33 cima up for sale, the shitty thing is i ordered a lot of parts from japan already that didn't make the august show and it's kinda a waste not to floss it since most of it is cima-specific. but yah, i got til' 2009 to make up my mind and until then (my 3rd condo won't be built 'til then), so the cima will continue to receive its weekly full detail pkg from door-to-door (meguiar's 4-stage) and i will make sure nobody eats or drink or smoke in it...ekekekekekekee....LOL... :2funny: payce, mikey

Nice choice on wheels my friend. And kinda unbelievable on the fitment out of the box. Just shows us the quality and time they go through to make their kits. Keep us updated on everything Love to see more pics maybe at like a photoshoot :D Keep It up!
