haha... i'm not personally a fan of vinyl graphics. the orange downforce nsx and my other cars should show that. but i guess for the sake of SEMA, the cars got to be a mobile billboard. and if you guys look closely... you MIGHT be able to tell who i'm going to sema with... :wink: :tongue: :biggrin: :rolleyes:

:eek: :eek: :eek: WOULND'T PEOPLE ALREADY KNOW IT'S AN ARK CAR FROM IT BEING IN THEIR BOOTH? WHY SO MANY LOGOS? AND WHAT'S WITH THE FLAMES? I SAW YOUR NSX PICTURES ON THE OTHER THREAD, AND THOUGHT IT LOOKED SO MUCH NICER PLAIN AND DARK. THE BODY IS SO NICE TO BE RUINED AND COVERED WITH SO MUCH STICKERS. IMO...
 
you are going to take them off after SEMA right? :smile:
 
yeah... for sure... :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Not to shabby!!!:smile:
 
I think you should take those stickers off and just go plain and simple. The flames gotta go for sure. all them sticker took the beauty out of the car and turned it into something that MTV's Pimp My Ride would do. Took a nice exotic and turned it into a rice mobile. That's just my opinion.
 
heh heh... Go the Flames!!!

Reminds me of NSX racing legend Doug Hyashi's Flamemobile!

I reckon it looks awesome! Got an idea... Instead of taking the flames off after Sema... Hit Ark up for some more money, get a roll cage and go racing!!!
 
Even with all those graphics, it's VERY hard to stand out at SEMA. You get desensitized very quickly and everything starts looking the same, even the models...well...almost..:tongue:
 
if i could have it my way... the car would go stealth... maybe even black ARK outlines to make a subtle statement... but we all understand the logistics of SEMA. every company will have their approach to "marketing" their product or company...

and yes...SEMA can be very desensatizing... i say ditch the graphics, and get nude models with ARK pasties .... :tongue:

MARKETING - DONE!!!
 
Looks good for Sema and Fast and Furious 4.

That is pretty tame compared to all the other Sponsored cars out there with a million stickers, neon lights, flashing lights, 2-5 different colors inside and outside, rims bigger than the car should have, slammed to the ground, 7 LCD's in the car, bodykits galore, etc.

I like the color of the car good job.

thanks chris. all color scheme for graphics ted @ ark did... haha... thanks for your help during the project as well chris!
 
:frown:NOT a fan of the flames, but i guess as long as your taken them off afterwards:wink:.

LOOKS GOOD other then that:biggrin: :wink:...what hood is that and does it only fit a widebody?
 
Hahhaha... Me either. But it is SEMA. We got no choice. We must do something on show cars... A lot of LOGOS. :biggrin:

Here is few more pictures..

come stop by and say hi~!!! :biggrin:

the hood is a SEIBON type CW hood. and it will work on "non-widebody" cars as well...
 
The NSX looks more evil (in a good way) compared to the Corvette. :biggrin:
 
I understand it's for ARK...

Since they must have flame...suggest them to take the flame off in the front hood...and just keep the flame on the side and rear. I think it will look 10x better. The front of the NSX is a beautiful view....the flame just tortured the look.

Oh...I hope you have adjustable...because you need to slam that front...too much finger gaps. :)


This is the only best view of the car..even w/ the stickers.

The front view w/ the stickers... ugly.

Anyway, good luck...and have fun! Remember to take some hot pictures of the babe....the one breathing please.
 
NRG IS RIGHT. I MEAN IF YOU HAVE TO KEEP THE STICKERS, TAKE OFF THOSE 2 FLAMES ON FRONT OF CAR. ITS REALLY DISTRACTING. EVEN THE LITTLE LOGO ON SIDE SHOULD BE MOVED LIKE ON HOOD OR SOMEWHERE ELSE. I THINK THAT ONE LARGE ARK FLAME ON SIDE WOULD BE CLEANER, AND LOOK SO MUCH NICER. :tongue:

DANIEL, I JUST NOTICED IN YOUR PICTURES YOU DON'T HAVE THAT SUPER HUGE ARK STICKER ON FRONT. BUT THE ONE WITH THE CORVETTE DOES. WHICH ONE IS BEFORE OR AFTER? KEEP IT OFF!!!! :mad:

hey em & nrg

its really not up to me, and since its ARK's car for at least SEMA, i really can't ask or direct too much. but i know ted frequents the site, so maybe he'll take into consideration your guys/gals suggestions. never thought of it, but i do see what you guys mean...

and yes, the ARK-san front bumper (no sticker) was after, it was removed because a NSX-R emblem has to go on. but i guess that already in itself is a refresher...
 
Actually, I might be the minority here, the sticker doesn't piss me off as this car is heading to SEMA. However, please please ditch the canard, the way it mount is just stupid, care to explain the reason of such the stick out horizontal piece? Curb feeler ? :p
