I understand what your saying 100% Mark. I have always said the same thing to my buddies with their cars.

Ultimately, it does not matter if it has been done on every car that shares the same badges as yours or not. If you like it, do it and love it.  
At the same time, someone see’s something “different” on you identically badged car, and they like it; odds are that will be a future mod.

Like, for something simple as shit. Also as a prime example of what I mean.

My S10, I prefer night off roading as to day. I have no big ass back lights. So I went and got some super bright xenon yadda blah blah bulbs for my reverse lights so I can see a little better. (they actually made a HUGE difference. Now, I _swear_ within the next month…I seen at least 80 cars with the same damn bulbs.  
Alas, it is benificial to everyone in a sense. Also, it could be just that I noticed it more because I had done it as well. Yet its the principal, not the point.
