Default Just plain dumb!

I saw the stupidist modded car the other day this idiot was getting round in a 89 model Toyota Camry Wagon, the guy had on it a set of 18 inch BBS's, (too flash for the car) heavy black tint windows with a "go fast" sticker on the rear window, and a racing muffler. But the big but is the fact the car engine is completly stock! not even a descent clean, and the car was a out in out slug. What a waste of time and money!

Some people just werent born with brains, apparently this persons parents lost a bet with god and only a very small part of his brain is functional.
For instance today i saw someone driving a chevy lumina not with rims but fake ass spinner wheel covers , i mean come on if you cant pay for the car to go with the style dont fake the style for a fake ass car. 0X
i dont drive a sports car, i may drive it that way, but its not,
the only thing in that car is a stereo system, just enough to smack you in the back and make the signs dance in the mirrors. No point in doing anything to it, unless you have a proven tuner car that responds well to mods dont bother just use your car to get to work so you can buy something you actually want to be in then mod it out and do some work to it. But people please do us all a favor :roll: if you drive an 89 trecel a ford tempo or any late model car that fell off the map, do yourself and the car a favor leave it alone, most of those cars look better as a heap of scrap metal, best part is most of them are worth more that way too. 0X

You guys wouldnt imagine what you can see over here in my country! Ever since that fast and furious movie, everyone wants to mimic them. I wouldnt even know where to start if I would want to describe what can be seen. Off the top of my head, there are two cars I have seen that have a CHROME STICKER of a metal fuel lid

(like this)


where the actual fuel lid is...

Im gonna start taking pictures of these cars during my vacations over here (Bolivia, South America) and when I get back to the US, I will post them in JW.

You know thats pretty sad putting a fake sticker on your car but one of a fake fuel cap thats ridiculous. What about how you see the fake bullit hole stickers now as well whats the point?

LMAO!
Boys, you should come to Portugal one day...

Chrome stickers in the fuel lid are the order of the day!
I mean, I see dozens of that everyday, not to mention other aberrations such as some plastic things imitating brake discs on the rear wheels (for those with drums).

Oh well, you would only believe it if you saw it...

The worst thing I've ever seen is a 3door Daewoo Lanos with spinners and a boost gauge on the A-pillar...only problem was that the guage was cosmetic and the spinners...well...they weren't even real spinners...they were stupid plastic wheel covers with an extra plate.

like everso stated that is like the filler cap on the TT(same color) and they are on Eclipses aswell, never seen a sticker of one. I know there are other cars that come with them aswell but I can't think of them off hand.
