The problem is that the number of cars with the aluminum wings, unpainted cracked-up body kits, 17's in the back, stock steelies in the front far outnumber the nice and clean rides. I have always felt that the people with the nice rides actually have a clue, whereas the others deserve all of the heat they attract.

Something to keep in mind tho... if you are going to build up a car,

BUILD IT HOW YOU LIKE IT!

**** what everyone else says. So you like the style and image. Fine, then do all kinds of crazy sh!t and make it look decent. You like the boomin system? Go for it! The bottom line is it's YOUR $$. It's YOUR car. Build it so that YOU are happy with it. People just get too caught up in what others think if their cars. I have seen it time and time again... some kid at a show talking about how this APC spoiler is the latest and greatest thing on the market!! When asked if he LIKED it, he sidestepped the answer, only to exclaim that it is awesome and looks a lot like the one in F&F, so he wanted one for his car too. :ghey:

And as for the performance thing: same thing goes. If you are fine with a car running 14's...that's cool. But KNOW YOUR ROLE. Speed is fun and cool and all. But people get so damn bent on numbers, and instaltly label soleone a ricer for wanting their car to look different. Let's face it, if they were so bent on going fast, they wouldn't be driving a Honda.

Have a nice day
