I refuse to acknowledge the RX8 has "Altezza" taillights. We do NOT have chromed housings, we have black housings. That's the difference.

I think 2 fast on the windshield means she got to the credit card before her husband could stop her.

C'mon man, that's from Die Cutz! Notice that Z at the end - that means it's Xtreme and hard to the core! It's cute and extreme. Whoa!

Somewhere around my old hometown, there is a blue Escort (I think it's an Escort) that literally has spray-painted ductwork attached all over it. It's either the funniest or saddest car in the world. Funny if they've done it ironically, and sad if they genuinely think it's cool. Hopefully some day I can get a picture.

^ I have one up on you bro. I found this today at my Uncle's shop. I'm gonna bring my car there Monday to have my bumpers painted and my front emblem taken off and filled in. I saw this in the drive. Apparently it belongs to the kid who does the painting! One thing I can say... my car is in good hands. The paint is gorgeous on this car. The body is Irish Green Metallic and the roof, hood, and trunk are done in a black with Irish Green Metallic Flakes... large ones.

But count the Boo Boos... misbadged with an SE-R badge... no name fart can, bad plastic damage and I didn't get it in the picture but big 19 inch chrome... HUBCAPS. On a Honda, what else?

Jeez, I hate it when people want to put Universal aftermarket mufflers from AutoZone on there Ford Taurus, their Chevy Lumina or some sedan economy car like that. I've met some people that spend good money on Name brand Aftermarket 3" exhaust for their family cars too. They say they would want to put an engine swap like a 1JZ or an LS VTEC. All that money you would spend for the swap and mods are going to cost more than just getting you a real Tuner Car. Then they would put the name brand sticker on the side of their car! Imagine a 4 door sedan with an AEM sticker on the side, just because he/ she has the filter on the MAF. Dude, IT'S NOT COOL HAVE OR LOOK AT! I'd rather have a beat up 1989 Honda Civic than to have a family sedan with universal parts and stickers on them. Save your money to get something you can really build. Please, if you know people like that, do them a favor and tell them to STOP!!!! Or else we'll post pictures of your car on this forum and Laugh!!!!! Mwahhh ah ah ah ah!!! LOL

We found a C7 or w/e jeep yesterday that had rhino bed liner as its paint job. Thats right folks, every single once glossy surface was coated in a thick, even layer of black RHINO bed liner. LOL

i guess at least it looked clean

Thats fairly common in the jeep community as it really helps protect the vehicle when doing heavy offroading
