loominaz34 Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 The thing looks like a skyline. It's an impressive amount of work and with the asg V8, you've got th balls to eliminate all rice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runt Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Wow, I bet it's finally a lumina with torque! You have a hell of a lot of work stuck into that, which like others have said I totally respect. Thats a lot of custom shit to do. But...sorry to say but I don't like it too much. The engine and interior are cool, but outside is a tad too much for my liking. Then again, I love the Z's stock so thats probably why. But enjoy your V8 machine!

90TGP Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Looks good. The only thing I would do is get rid of that ugly front window banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEiZe Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Looks sharp, but if it were mine, I would have left the rear lights stock, left the wing off, ripped the front window banner off, and removed the loovers on the hood. But, its yours, not mine. Is it quiet so you can sneak up on the ricers ? Good work on the car and hope the hurricane doesn't mess it up.

Euro Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 first off total props for such a big amount of custom body work!! That front bumper I swear it looks like a 99+ Mustang front cover, but then again, most fronts look like that with the huge opening on the front. The whole Integra thing and huge wing though I think look bad. I cant see why put a Acura rearend on a chevy car. just not me. although, having a lumina sound like a v8, i would never get bored of the exhaust note of those Flowmasters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KING JOKER Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 great job. i love to see custom work done to cars especially ones that have no aftermarket. all i have to say is i liek it . one of a kind . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 i dont like it either. good job on the hard work though. it just too much... i like cars simple Not my taste, but I can tell a lot of work went into it. I like the sideskirts alright, the front looks too heavy and bulky for the car, the rear looks lifted right off an Acura Integra which didn't have a very nice looking rear to begin with, IMO. Definitely something that would cause me to do a doubletake if I saw it on the road. Not sure I would be able to tell it used to be a Lumina if I weren't such a W-body nut.

cryptnix Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 we need some videos ... of it idling and you doing a quick burn out or something ... i haven't heard of the ASG 5.0 ... or at least researched it for that matter ...

midnight rider Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 There is a fine line between RACE and RICE. You've done an excellent job of not crossing it. That car looks beyond nice. You should snap some pics of it and email them to every body kit maker out there to show them that luminas do have a following and need an aftermarket.

jeremy Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 I really like it, except the wing and the extra hood scoops.....major props on the time/energy/money that you put in her.....I would get 18's or 19's for it though before I called it "finished" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Quite a bit of effort went into it. I can't say it's a W-body anymore. I can't say I like it especially after seeing what it 'looked' like before the body kit. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matts93z34 Posted September 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Thanks for the comments. I do agree with people about the wing but before the car went to paint i put the stock wing back on and the car looked worst than it does with the wing that is on the car now. I was going to get one of the drag type spoilers but i didnt know how it was going to look and i didnt want to was anymore money on it. I am thinking about getting some 18's but money is an issue right now with me in college and the fact that i just dropped 5k into it this summer but i do have plans to get 18's and and air ride suspension some time in the near future. So its not finished but its close, but when you think about it, a car is never finished there is always something that you can do to it.

EurosportZ34 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 hrmmmm.....it's like a Z34 joined the Fast and the Furious... With that ASG you got there you break about even with me liking the whole car. Not too bad, I guess, if your into that whole over-done dramatic as hell look.

matts93z34 Posted September 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 I can try to get some movies of the car but with my camera the video is really small and the sound quality isnt that good but i can try and get some up soon.

EurosportZ34 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 LOL, I new that car resembeled something but now it all makes sense. It's when Star Wars clashes with the Fast and the Furious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalgorn Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Fucking gross. Why the fuck did you defile a nice Lumina for that? I'll give you credit for the amount of work you put into it but goddamn that thing is disgusting. You're no better than a guy with a Civic that puts a bodykit, huge wing, new taillights, asscrap hood, etc. on their car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matts93z34 Posted September 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 I would agree with you i am just like those people that put body kits, wings, exhaust, and hoods on civics, i have always been into those types of cars and modifying cars that way. But call me crazy i didnt just go out and buy the stuff, i made aftermarket parts for a car that has limited to none so call me a ricer or whatever i really dont care, but you will never see another lumina like the one that i have when you drive down the road and that is why i customized the lumina that way, knowing that i have a lumina that ends up in the wild class at car shows and the fact that most the time i win first means something to me and you can say thats why i have done what i have done. Everyone is entitled to their own opinioin and i respect that. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay3800 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Although I think the car is butt-ugly, that ASG 5.0 package is sweet. Hell, any W-body with a V8 is awesome in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
