I get most trends, whatever it is I honestly do (with the exception of donks) but the one that always bugs me is spending a lot of time and money to make the car look worse than when you started. Tasteless cars really, with the intention to impress the average person this applies to people with wings, fart cans, underglows, all the typical BS. Trends that make the average person not understand is the proper direction, rat rods, flat black, JDM, etc. Stuff that you would look silly trying to explain so you don’t even bother because they just won’t get it. ---

chrome stuff on cars, don’t look good period. I’m still confused by the stretched tires thing as well. Buying any car that’s yellow. Also the bike rack thing, for some odd reason I like bike/ski racks on scoobys and and E36 M3’s, I have no idea why though, just looks good ---

This thread. All it proves is how close minded people are and that they think everyone should modify their car the same way they do. No this isn’t a sudden realization. I think its funny how ignorant people are and if they can’t understand something they claim its stupid or dangerous. Btw roof racks are there to carry shit that doesn’t fit in your car. How hard is that to comprehend. But yes there are people that have them and don’t use them, they are posers and they need to die, yes I literally mean stop breathing. I hate posers and always have ---
