first of all my tail lights are stock because i don't see spending $200+ on cosmetics. and i do agree that altezza's are often flashy, and poorly designed. but bashing people who have them just seems arogant. that's great that you don't like altezza's but for the people who do that's their buisness. it's no reason to bash them because they want to follow the crowd. there is no originality anywhere. you get ideas from viewing other cars, and agreeing that it looks nice so you try it yourself. so if you think about it, everyone is following a crowd. just becuase you're not following the largest crowd doesn't mean it makes you better or more creative.
i would also like to add that i agree with the fact that carbon fiber hoods look rediculous and the idea is rediculous, i know i wouldn't want to spend 200-300 dollars on something that will barely lighten my car. i know if have to replace my hood because the owners before me had alittle fender bender and the hood is alittle slanted, but for $90 i can have a factor hood and paint it any color i want.
finally i want to say that in no way was i trying to be hypocritical. i don't care what people post, but i just think that the post should be more constructive then bashing on other people for what they like. i think that's all i had to say.
