dont mind the rims, sticker and steering wheel doesnt look great, not a fan of red and black like that and the tail lights look ordinary, much better on a lighter coloured car, would look nicer with tinted. head unit looks cool and sony sub isnt the most impressive, that said congrats on having a non stock car that im sure you like

I'm liking the in dash screen, and the steering wheel cover. Definetly could do with being lowered abit more.

nice rims, but dump it lower, and find a set of parabolic headlights. those lights make the world of difference

Keeping in mind the light pattern sucks compared to the standard lights... But from what I see here, functionality is hardly a concern!

Hate the stickers... don't like those tail lights, some carbon fibre altezzas would go down nicely.

Dump it lower too.

Oh and I hope you mean GReddy... because G-Ready sounds like some sort of knockoff lol

firstly yes i did mean greddy, and dont you worry i am lowering my car again, but when, and how low is another question, parabolics yeh there on the drawing board, graphics - well i spose its ur own opinion, same with the altezza lights, but thanks for ur opinions and thank you for being honest, some people i ask say something about my car and i can tell they are lying. i almost forgot, what is my car not made for functionality.

Large rims, illegal tail lights, sony sound system, that's why.

ok, im getting the idea that absoutly noone likes my rear lights, :doubt:. thats ok cos its ur own opinion, and i like them, thus making me an individual, :bowrofl: im am very appreciative that everyoneis giving there honest opinion, thats great. keep them coming.i will keep you posted on my updates and my newest mods. criticism works by the way, some of you may remember i previously had an ideas thread, where ppl didnt like my side graphics, and know, guess what they are gone...so if i agree with you, and if its not to expensive, ill modify my car to my taste as well as pleasing the audience.:bowrofl:

thanx all, mike

yeah sorry mate not a fan, of the window stickers, they stand out too much. and the tail lights, go tinted, but if u like it then i guess thats what matters, my mates dont like what i have done to my car, but a lot of ppl do too. and those tail lights are known for there common faultyness. my mate had a pair. and didnt even know they didnt work half the time he was driving around. oh and turn your sub around facing the rear, it will sound so much better as the sound wave will bouce off the boot and back into the cabin, using the boot as a giant sub box

ohh so if i turn my sub around will it sound better inside the car, with the hatch down, and if so where should i position it in the boot?

yeah mate i would turn your sub around so its pointing the rear of the car
leave it behind the rear seat
oh and the cars looks nice, but yeah i would get some slightly tinted tail lights and lose the stickers on the windscreen and the rear windscreen
would make it look nice and clean when done :D

i rekn they look feckn sweet to tell ya the truth, im one of the only ppl on here that rekns tinted tail lights look crep and even if they looked good, ther illegality far outweighs their advantages.

yours look off the hook imo!!

Heres my op:

Don;t mind the lights
change graphics to white colour
get some more white stuff on exterior
parabolics or eyelids
lower it a lil more.
get somehting to break sombreness inside

all in all, good effort, as long as you're happy with it, then who cares what others think huh!

I get teased every day at school coz i've got a magna and everyone else has a VS/T/L/R or some sort of mazda sports car or crummy hatchback. i love my car for what it is, yes its a magna and no it aint the bst mass produced car in the world, but hey. WHO CARES! :)

I said F*&#ing nice one one bruva........ everything looking pretty sweet would loose the grapichs tho maybe change them to a white or silver or chrome and downsize them a bit. im a fan of the steeing wheel how much did it set you back??

steering wheel - just a smig ova 100 bucks
graphics - yeh i dunno what im going to do with them, sometimes i love em, sometimes i dont like em, dpends on where i stand.
sub - i thought having it facing straight into the cabin would project the sound straight there, thus sounding better.
thanx for your opinions:bowrofl:

Nice Car, nice rims.

Couple of things:

1. Tails should be tinted
2. Get rid of the stickers

Especially #1 try it, you might never go back....

Put the standards back in - I had the frosted lights and got defected for it (among other things!). The stock lights do actually look better - or tint the standard ones.

OR do like me and get some KJ Verada tail lights - mmmmm :drool:

in your poll it the options are, keep the lights, tint the lights or put standard ones back in, when u say tint the ones u got, u are refering to tinting the standard ones arnt u, not the white ones????????????????

Whats the point in tinting the frosted ones that just defeats the purpose of clear lights! :nuts: Just tint the standard ones

i dont wanna tint them, i like them, i just wanted peoples opinion opn my car, and since everyone kept mentioning my tail lights i thought i do up a quick poll, and see how many people liked and disliked them, whilst hopefully commenting on the rest of my car...:bowrofl:

lookin good, very shiny and straight. but i'd lose the stickers, makes it look a bit messy and doesn't suit the black/chrome look.

ladies and gentlemen, all graphics are gone except the amc website, pics will be up soon, my decision came when i decided i didnt like the look of the front graphics anymmore after 2 years, and well as it goes, the rear window graphics looked out of place, so the final product there off. anyways a lovely lookin KH Xi Chrome grill is now attatched to the front of my car, ill clean my car and post some piccies up over the next few days.
