I have to say those chrome wiper blades look like crap too. I hate those things, and who the hell thinks they look good anyways?

They were my 1st guess, but that sun roof deal is awesome. I may get 5 and stick them on ..just to be different.

Okay, I am not one to rag on anyone about their taste and what they do to their car but you know, living in CA I have seen some stuff that just makes me hang my head in shame. I saw one myself yesterday, it was a new tC, with the biggest spoiler on it I have ever seen, I was in the car yelling at the guy, what have you done you dumba$$ was all I could say.

That sunroof illusion trick is a good one, I did not notice it until I read the post... good eye (to the writer of that one... not the car owner).

It just goes to show you that for some people their taste is all in their mouth. I have but one suggestion to all of them... maybe a trip to the eye doctor is in order for some of these people...

CheCazzo... CA is no different with respect to your comment.

There are more rolling totals on the road here than you can shake a stick at. Most recent I have seen are the cars that have visited the tape and bag body shop... I saw a mini van that had been hit in the back, the guy took the time to make a back window out of a black trash bag, reconstruct the rear gate of his van with another color trash bag (pretty closely matched to the paint of the car) then made the gray bumper out of duct tape, oh he had red tail lights too, I have seen two other cars that have done the same thing since I saw the van... strange people out there. I wish I had my camera for that van.

You know I guess the statement "to each his own" really applies on this one.

Geez, do I have to do ALL the work around this thread? OK... I didn't have my camera (and thought of this thread) but I caught a quick shot on my phone. Check this pimpmobile. What at a distance appears to be pearl coat, is in reality a combination of orange peel, drip marks, thin spots and uneven clear. Note the dual cans, and spoiler/rag top stand. I wish I could have captured the lines of the front lip and Trans-Am-esque hood scoop...
