Dedicated to [S]izzle, now known as n a j i n, heavily inspired by his radical abstract style.

Well, I'm sure this will have it's critics, but here we go.
Congrats to Rizur for dominating CTC, the car was of a very high standard.

Now, I've had this idea since April I think, and come D1 challenge, I had to do it; it had the biggest impact of the 5 Drifters I had came up with (over the course of the year), and was the craziest. First, it had to look like a genuine drifter... tough body - an improved Evo X kit suited well, and had all this race technology as standard, big wing; check and deep dish race rims; check! So, that's your standard affair, as it should be.
So, I turned to the vinyls to set it apart from the rest; It had to be heavily decaled, have a number, have a clear major sponsor featured all around the ride, and eye-catching colours and vinyls:
> Inspiration:

Colours are brightened "classic HKS" colours. Don't look bad on that black base. And they are not random.
>Idea: HKS being a tuning goliath... it pretty much does everything in terms of after market performance parts; hence the idea of the car "showcasing it's parts", both mechanically and visually (vinyls are just car parts).

Yep, the classic HKS colour combo is always controversial... Believe it or not... it looks worse with grey decals as there's nothing to balance the green and purple, and the colours really have to be bold for the layout to work. But... the base paint had to be black, lol.

I set out to make it bonkers for the beginning, a bit of a study of a more wild style, and either you love it or hate it. Thanks for your opinion.

Uhh... where else is there for them to go? Like what section did you mean? Because I made sure they were out of the way, but not distorted by the body.
