Oh yeah. Whoops. Guess I couldn't see past all those tasteful additions. And I haven't had my morning coffee yet. Mumble, mumble, mumble.

How do we get rid of ricers? The only way is for the manufacturer to increase the purchase price of the car so that these people with severe bad taste usually kids, can't afford them.

I think it's impossible. Bad taste doesn't disappear when you have money. The newly rich often display their new wealth in hilariously obscene ways.

There is a mod place down the street from me (Platinum motorsports) and they had a Rolls Royce Phantom outside. The owner had decided it would look good to get big, ugly chrome and gold wheels (That don't fit the car AT ALL) along with a matte black paint job.

I'm just wondering about the price of the original paint job and how it was replaced by something vastly inferior/cheaper. Ugly, to boot. The owner probably drives it himself, too.

Wow...that's a cold remark! Personally I like Matte

Taking a 200-300K + car and painting it Matte is another story but still, everyone is entitled to what they like though I suppose (as long as they can afford it and its not a lease

The Gold Rims and other ____, I'm with you there, really don't care for that whole rub it in your face bling bling

No, no. I'm not disliking matte in general. Matte looks really nice on some cars. On a Rolls Royce, it does not. It looks like @$$. Especially considering what the original paint job costs. I.E Nine hundred million, billion dollars.

Some people just go with whatever the current fashion is without thinking whether it actually suits the car or not first.

Wah! Wah! Wah!

Its all good, just messing with you bro!!!

I just ordered the Gold Rolls Royce symbol for my Z and this sweet matching gold door trim. Hopefully I can get it to work about the hatch, hood and fenders

We all laugh but you know you've seen it before...WTF do people think at times!

For those of you reading this...live by one rule:

PEP BOYS is NOT the place to buy all your MODS!!!!!!
