Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

HOLY CRAP! @ Corvette. I think the owner may have been on Dungeons and Dragons a little too much.

Overspray: check
Poorly painted: check
what appears to be tape all over: check

Whoever did it has the IQ of a nerd, but the skills of a child.

Wow... that Corvette is quite... special. I wonder what on Earth the motivation was behind it. And why, even if you were convinced it was a good idea, you'd then use what appears to be poster paint.

You also wonder why they let people in lunatic asylums have cars in the first place. I would have thought it a hazard.

That one is all kinds of awesome. If you're going to have a naff (a Kia Rio, methinks) car you may as well have a bit of fun with it.

Just got sent this over MSN.

@ OrKa: MOST AWESOME THING ON EARTH.

@ Corvette: omg...

[land sea air]

he's going to need that tow hook when his tire blows and he wraps that thing around a tree

 

[Bones Brigade]

At least he knows its the wrong fitment. Though knowing is probably worse.

also: UGH!

 

[Joey D]

I'd rock that Fit for sure. Tires need to be slightly less stretched though.

 

[Jim Prower]

Knowing it's wrong fitment is almost like flipping off traditionalists.

I think that's why I like it, it's been intentionally cheeky.

Edit: Hotlinking fail.

 

[Glubags]

^ Wow, that's awful.

 

[Dragonistic]

Anyone fancy placing a bid on this?

Ohhhh yeaa you know you want it.

 

[Time_Attack]

that would be perfect for my Bulgarian property.

Are you kidding? That thing has like 6 degrees of negative camber in the back, and a tow hook, as if it'll ever see a track. Some of those guys at the "wrong fitment crew" actually have the right idea, but that Fit is pure garbage... a stupid automotive trend at its worst. 👎

No, not kidding, I like cars like that. It's not meant to be a track car and doesn't even look like it would be a track car. Honestly, most of the time I prefer looks to functionality on a vehicle, especially on a car like a Fit which isn't fast to begin with.

 

[Glubags]

Cars don't have to be fast to be track cars, but if it's got a tow hook and never sees any track use, that's just ridiculous. Basically what you're saying sounds to me like, "I like posing." That's sad to me. Oh well, to each his own!

 

[Joey D]

Eh, cars are subjective. I can respect a track rat just as much as I can respect a car that's done for all out show. Hell I'm making my car all show and no go.

 

[Blitz187]

- Hope its not a repost, otherwise I apologize.

Now is it me? Or when you see this car, doesnt it make you think the owner got hit on the head by an anvil only to awaken out of his daze with the idea to do THIS:

The "guilty party"

Poor Bimmer... Somebody either go put it out of its misery or help it, please!

 

[Glubags]

^ That has to kill business.

 

[Richardrfo]

 

[ND4SPD]

^Seriously?!

 

[Jim Prower]

There's a Ricer Bumper for everything...

 

[Bones Brigade]

I dunno, I was kinda thinking it was along the lines of knowing a huge spoiler in back is counterproductive but doing it anyway.

 

[NotThePrez]

That doesn't mean one should use it. Is that really a Land Rover?

Rx7's come with tow hooks from the factory

Looks like an LR2. Whether that's a real Landy or not's your call.

I'm talking about aftermarket bolt-on units, not factory tow hooks/loops

Even my S2000 has a factory tow hook... you just have to pop a round plastic cap off the front or rear bumpers and screw it in... it's packaged with the tool kit that usually sits in the trunk.

 

[Thatman]

^really? Huh I was wondering what those patches were for Thanks I suppose!
And Yes I did know you were talking about the HUGE tow hooks...thanks to the info though
