I agree with the civic being terrible… trying too hard to be trendy. It looks way better one color

7

Like the article says, I’m sure it started with VW owners.

8

not a trend…been around forever. just sport compacts getting some ideas from other places.

oh and you should see the phaze2 civics engine bay now…shit is horrible…once agains trying to be different but it failed.

it started with ratrod culture of the 40’s, 50s and 60s. some genius thought to do it to modern cars. its to each their own. … flat paint and rust go well together, but high gloss, shiney wheels and new cars, not so much.

example:

rat rods are awsome, but most poeple are trying to hard with them.

And as for that phaze 2 civic. Im my book that car is a complete fail. the bay made it 103483578924 times worse.

12

if you wanna be that different, turn gay. get aids. and do us all a favor and die. :slight_smile:

13

is it just me, or does that one civic thats in the link have a front lip made out of rubber baseboard molding from home depot?

14

so thats what ebay gets you now…

15

They all look horibble.

16

Stupid , I will never do it

17

stupid+gay=fail doesnt look good.

18

this is exactly what I was going to say, a lot of these cars are just modern rat rods in a sense…

whatever floats your boat

19

I would say that THIS is definitely not my cup of tea. It just doesnt look right on a shiny nice looking car, ya know?

20

yea, instead we should all do the same shit and never try anything out that is different.
