Rough day at the office Oats?

Look, there is a general concensus out there about what is decent cosmetic modifications, this example doesnt appear to reflect that consensus and the opinions in this thread state that.

No one called you and ******* for liking it, dont call me an ******* for not liking it.

im not calling you an ******* for not liking it, im calling the group ******** for jumping ALL over this guy for doing what he likes... saying theyd send it to teh crusher, that he destroyed the car, that they would be embarrassed, etc.

we could have just lost a potential GREAT member, imagine if he stumbles on the site today and sees this thread? he wont come back.
its happened before.

Alright, let'* keep this at a nice tone, shall we?
I'm saying in general, to stand out from the crowd, one must add some personalization to their car, whether it'd be a CAI, or 20" rims, whatever floats your boat. For me, personally, I think Function over Form, but hey, if someone wants to do something like that, all the power to him, because he still loves his car just as much as me

That wing is almost generating lift... BAD idea in a fwd car lol... I Like the Paint, but the fender vents, and the hood scoop have no thought at all to resemble the original design of the car at all.

nice tails, never seen that...

On the picture quality, most cam phones are focused more in the middle and get blurry the further out you go. They're FAR from any semblance of consistency. 2 megapixel phones coming out still look like ***. As long as he/she'* happy that'* what matters though.
