The side shot looks like the side panels were dented pretty badly and then pulled out again poorly. Then a body kit was slapped over the whole mess to hide it.

I've seen that car before! From a distance, none of my friends believed me when I said that was a riced out camaro... then we got close... and even when I proved the wrong, I still felt sad looking at that thing...

Yeah, that Camaro was at the Gigante flea market! I went there to get and ipod battery for $8.00. They have a Tejano club in the back that opens after hours. That place is hilarious.

Found this gem today driving home from lunch with my manager. Note Dubs, No profile tires, 22" badge next to the Dubs, to let you know they're Dubs. Monitors in the sun visors, Giant wide view Autozone rear view mirror, and the 6x9 speakers mounted in the trunk inside tissue boxes. Oh, he also had a flag on the hood of his car, I couldn't catch it but I think it was a Dominican republic flag? Oh! Look at his tail pipe, it's shaped into a Chevy logo.

I want to do that to my 8, get a tiny trailer, and tow basic tools plus race-tires to the track. Absolutely nothing wrong with it... wouldn't leave the hitch on there any time other than for driving to the track and back, though.
