...taken a look at some of the ridiculous body kit pictures on websites? Like, the sample images of what it would look like on your car.

Some of them I just can't even believe someone would actually put it on their car, and think it looks even remotely good.

Like this poor Grand Am for example:

It's a finished vehicle. Why spend money on such a horrendous kit and wing? Plus paint!?

One big reason people do crap like that is because the worst looking stuff is the most affordable. For a couple hundred or less someone can make an ordinary car look different than other cars of the same make/model...and for some reason they get satisfaction from that. Problem is they don't realize it's tasteless and gaudy.

Many a car has been embarassed by fake vents, altezza lights, and terrible body kits. It's a generation thing, where it's a fad to have an outrageous looking POS. A lot of kids are growing up not understanding what working on a car is really about. Thanks Fast and Furious.

blah blah blah I could go on.

Does it ever flash through your mind when you see a car like that on the street and say to yourself... "I wish there was some way they could have just consulted me first" :eusa_doh:
