10 Accessories That Make Your Car Look Stupid | Complex

Fellow Z owners, and anyone who is an enthusiast for awesome automobiles: please don't do any of these:

1. Tacky looking seat covers
2. Long eyelashes for the car headlights
3. Stick-on carbon fiber panels
4. Fake hood scoops
5. Car bras
6. Fake/Bolt-on exhaust tips
7. "Designer" interior add-ons
8. Fake fender vents
9. Clip-on spinners
10. Vanity shift knobs

Honorable Mentions:
11. "Balls" hanging from the rear bumper (This is juvenile, stupid looking, and makes you look like a D-Bag. Don't do this.)
12. Vertical/Lamborghini doors on any vehicle with more than two doors (Really? Just... Really!?)

If you guys have anymore to add to the list, or believe something should be taken off, I'd love to hear from you and your reasoning.

Keep in mind, this is not my list. Just a funny article I came across online, had a little giggle at, and thought I'd share.

How do you feel about lambo doors on the Z?

Well, I plan to get them installed on my Z sooner or later. So, yeah. I'm in favor for them on sports cars. The longer the doors, the more practical I think they are (like a corvette's doors).

Awesome. I think they look pretty great on the 370z. Something about the body and lambo's look great Imo.

I can't tell if you guys are serious or not...

Speaking of **** that makes you look REALLY stupid.... :facepalm:

I'm being serious. Don't know if i'll do it or not, but I don't think it looks bad, the 370z has a fairly exotic look in my opinion so it fits I think.

lol the hate is real

Can I just point out the hypocrisy of your post? How do you reconcile the dichotomy of hating on 10 objectively more common, relatively cheap, mods that people use to make their car subjectively look better to saying "OK" to, quite possibly, the most widely accepted form of RICE (and thus, stupidity) ever?

I mean, you list your age as 35. Surely you remember the late 90s/early 2000s where the worst offenders were always kids with import cars with underglow and lambo doors. I suppose at 35, you're just old enough to be one of those kids. I was too young to afford my own car at the time (or drive). But surely you've out grown the trend by now....

Underglow and Lambo doors FOR LIFEEEEEE! Ahahahaha. Honestly I like both if the car is relatively tasteful in most areas. I could never hate on Anyone for liking Light-effects, cuz light-effects are cool. If it's a custom car or a custom computer. They rock.

Sorry, it looked like my response was directed towards you because my post came right after yours without any context. You seem to like everything - no big deal there. Can't say I share the same tastes but, hey, doesn't matter.

It's the "here's 10 stupid things opinion while I tell you how cool my stupid thing is" that makes OP's post hypocritical. I'm just curious how he manages the mental gymnastics necessary to navigate his points of what is considered stupid, and what isn't.

someones been hitting the cheap tequila:yum:

To each his own, dude. Bottom line, If you want something for your car, go ahead. These are just some of the things that more often then not will make other folks look at you like :wtf:

Might I also add that the link to the original article is included in my post? I didn't make the list, I just happen to agree with it. If you have beef with the items mentioned, then there's the link to follow. Debate your objections there.

I don't recall asking for your opinion, but it has been duly noted. If you disagree with me, then :gtfo2: This is not the forum for trolling or flaming.

Your OP was more or less flaming these "mods" so.... :confused:

Refer to post #12, sir.

Hahaha man Cmon guys we all love car ****, so who cares.

And I dooo have a bad habit of liking A LOT of different stuff in most mediums. Obviously "Overly Riced" is out of the question, and impossible "camber Low lyfe" stuff is just retarded, Now I will give them props for achieving it sure, and some if it looks /kinda oddly cool/ but generally it's crap haha.

Just opinions. And honestly I agree with most of the list to varying degrees of execution.

Tho I'll deff say my biggest pet-peeve is things that are supposed to look like they give more power or are functional for power is my biggest "fake turbo crap or those electric intake things, and fake hoodscoops" being the worst. Minus stickers... we all know they deff give various amounts of dyno proven HP.

Trolling? This is a concise argument. What you've stated above is the definition of hypocrisy. You're just going to say anytime someone calls you on your BS that it's trolling?

As far as flaming goes, well, even that's a bit hypocritical isn't it? After all you're the one coming up with lists on how other people's opinions are stupid.

Seriously, dude? Let it go. This was meant to be a funny top 10 list for us all to laugh at. Then you came in and took the first shot by calling me hypocritical. You want to start a fight? Fine. You win. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to continue to have fun with silly stuff like this and maybe laugh a little.

If you need to take a smoke break or something to calm down, then great. Go do it. Then come back and have some fun with us on the forums. This was never meant to be insulting to anyone, and if I have done so to you, then I apologize for it.

Wrapping all kinds of parts in fake carbon fiber and "angel eyes" or "demon eyes" headlight mods qualifies. Why not just have one of those windshield tint graphics made that says LOOK AT ME I'M SPECIAL

I think if there was a way to do a Koenigsegg style door movement for our cars that could look pretty cool. I love the way those kind of pop out then roll forward.

Having said that, Lambo style doors belong on show cars (sometimes no) and Lambo's

This forum is no longer what it used to. Time to save it.

In before the lock...

But truck-balls do look idiotic.

Lambo doors on a car that's not a Lambo is the epitome of rice.

Double din, park bench wings. Like bell bottoms, its all the rage.

excessive stancing.

oh wait accessories... nvm i'll gtfo

but ... but ... but ... two door civic :rolleyes:

So what you saying, is ALL of this is unacceptable? LOL

I mean... i'd drive it.

One benefit to being on the road a lot, is seeing the stupid people put on their rides.
