colored window tint (blue, yellow, red) seems to be getting more and more frequent around here...and looks ridiculous

I saw a Dodge Colt, the owner had painted 4 and 5 next to the COlt logo on the back L.O.L!

I REALLY hate those stupid chrome fender covers, especialy on those old nissan sentras.
I hate those tiny bronze million spoke wheels that they put on old Nissan Sentras.
I realy hate windshield banners, especialy ones on completely stock cars.
I hate "Powered By" stickers. Who cares?
What about V6 mustangs with 5.0 badges that race and give us real guys a bad rap?
Ever see a car with a 20ft antenna? What the hells up with that?

Oh please....

As if you people know what a bad accessory is.

Come on now, everybody knows those big chrome curb feelers are the most ridiculous accessory you can put on a car. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif

I've never ever seen anything that makes a car look more ridiculous than a bunch of 12" long metal rods sticking out off the facia to make scraping noises when you run into a curb.

Fugly, fugly, fugly.

3 inch dual exhaust on engines with 90 horses and enough torque to spin the tires on ice with fart pipes! SWEET! seriously do they think that sounds good? cause it actually makes me pissed off. a healthy v8 with duals and headers now that is not offensive by any means.

white00GT 04-18-2001 02:00 AM

Hey what about those little stuffed doll things that they have at car shows; with them crying on the bumper..hehe those thigs are annoying!

OMG...the dolls that haunt my worst nightmares...

I had to be restrained once, at a car show, so I wouldn't run over to an especially obnoxious one and boot it as far as I could.

But OH! how I wanted to...it was smirking at me I could TELL even though its face was turned. How I hated those evil little heathens...I just want to---er, sorry.

Two way(Ham)radios, perhaps?
For those who live in Tornado Alley, those guys are quite usefull.
They're the ones that tell you when to duck http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif

No, I see these things here in Southern Cali. In the city. On cars like tercels and civics. They are literaly 10 feet tall.

Ah. I understand. Those don't appear to have filtered this far inland.
Probably next month..
Ham radio operators CAN drive Civics & Tercels, though http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif
But yeah, ten feet would be overkill even for a mobile Ham radio. The antenna on the wife's Sable is only about six.

Im sure you all will agree about Honda's and Acuras with "Type R" emblems. I mean I see these things on 89 hatchback civics n **** . Whats the purpose?! Is it supposed to scare me into not racing you or something? Do you think Im THAT stupid and won't realize that your a fake? The real Type R's are slow anyway. You dont see every mustang with Cobra R badges do you? And the Cobra R IS fast. The REAL fast turbo imports usualy dont have them.
