1. Dull and or mismatched body panels (although Ive been guilty of this on occasion)

2. Neon lights, both underbody and interior

3. Huge spoilers (no offense FlynLow )

4. Torn up interiors (Once again, Im no shining example here)

5. Mismatched rims

6. Painted rims (Saw a kid yesterday with yellow spray painted Irocs )


What do you think? Post your worst here!

(Please lets not let this turn into a flame war, or the Mods will lock it in no time)

 

Hey, what are you trying to tell me??????

 

lol yeaaa this is ground zero for a flame war but...Ill contribute a little
Painted drums! (black is ok, im talking yellow...neon green...)
Gaps in hoods (sometimes unavoidable...but it still looks bad)
Cheap plastic crap..anywhere on the car
Giant tacs that serve no purpose
spray painting interior panels retarded colors..you know who you are
Ok ill stop now...

 

Or as GM calls it, an interior

Don't forget about the the peeling paint syndrome

 

95% of all cheap wheels. (good reason to be cheap? )

Scraped up nose ground effects.

Bad tint (cheap/purple, blue, red, bubbling, scratched, etc)

Bad exhaust (crooked, rusted, massive, etc)

Those massive whip antennas

...anyone playing music really loud that's not good quality metal... preferrable black metal and melodic death/black stuffs. \m/


-Bud

 

How about pushed out wire wheels w/ curb feelers??
My all time favorite is the double spoiler cause they dont bother taking the three peice off first!

 

let me add

stickers, either on or under the hood, leave them for your tool box.

big *** exhaust pipes, looks r.icey

Decals, leave 2nd gen decals on 2nd gen cars, I always disliked big bird on the hood even when I owned 2nd gens

painted interior, or doing to much. a nice clean stock looking interior is the best!!!!!

REMEMBER this IMHO, do what you will, I know the younger crowd is going to flame me

 

Rain, gaurdrail and a concrete wall don't make a car look too hot at any speed, even 25mph.

 

Even with the different colors, my car still got respect from the locals.

 

lmfao

 

Cant forget chrome door trim and chrome wheel well covers.

 

primer spots everywere or bondo spots lol.
peeling paint as mentioned.

heres a great example... atached to this.

and for more go to...

please never post that pic again, it makes me cry and destroys a little piece of huimanity each time i see it
i LOVED your car man, it was go d:hail:

 

no offense to the ton of people who have done it, but i'll add mine.

putting a MSD ignition box on the passenger side dash, uggg, tacky.

front license plate....sure its a legality issue, but it just looks bad.

 

-Cracked aero-spoiler (Guilty)
-Missing or broken gfx
-Painted interior (no offense anyone)
-nose high, but down syndrome (also guilty)
-blue smoke out the tailpipe
-camaro-ams, or trans-maro's
etc...

 

The !doorlock mod. Primer also isnt high on my list, but I dont have a picture of that on my car yet At least the lock is fixed!

 

1. More than 3 inch exhaust pipes
2. Rusty rear hatch louvers
3. Trailer hitches
4. sunroof
5. Big fat rear spoilers
6. 14 inch tall wire wheels that are also 14 inches wide

 

my car's paint is in horrid condition
otherwise it looks pretty darn good! very stock looking, the way i plan to keep it. now the drivetrain on the other hand...

 

side pipes and fat women....

 

faded paint/pealing
rust
mis matched colored...just about everything (wheels/panels)
neon lights/paint
purple tint...i want to break windows whenever i see them
rear spoilers that are any bigger then 91-92 z's
stickers for the most part...some small ones are fine though

opps forgot wheels any bigger then 18s...cant stand chromed 20s on camaros just looks plain tacky

 

Don't worry my friend she is slowly being brought back to her glory.

Its good to know that I had to take pictures of both our decrepid cars. It is all Dayton's fault.

 

 

things that make my ride look bad? hmmmm

for the 87:
drivers seat,mud flaps(took them off way back when)

for the 91:
drivers seat,paint,no tint,no blackouts

 

How about white walls on our cars. Blah!!!!!!:nono:

 

Ridiculously Large Cowl hoods

Mud Flaps

Trailer Hitches/CB Antenna

No offense taken, I know my spoiler isn't at the top of everyone's must have part for 2004......

 

-mudflaps......i hate mudflaps
anything else i can pretty much deal with.

 

THANK ***. i cant wait.

 

1) fans mounted on the dashboard b/c you're to cheap to fix the a/c (common here in FL)

2) When you start your car up to show it off to someone and it pours out smoke to the point that they start coughing

3) when you have to crank up the radio to drown out bad struts, squeeky interior parts, holes in exhaust, etc.

4) the whole "monotone" theme - for example- yellow car with all black trim painted yellow, yellow window tint, yellow interior (including all interior panels of course), yellow engine, yellow rims, etc.

5) The "imitation" car phone antenna that goes on your back window, they have them at autozone, anyone seen these????

 

Altezza lights
13" spokes with low pros that stick 5 inches past the fenderwell
Cowl hoods that aren't holding anything (like a blower or a fat tunnel ram)
lighted exhaust tips (you've seen these)
Hydraulics-I repeat-Hydraulics
Dirty engine bays-come on, a bottle of engine brite is CHEAP!
And yes, stickers

 

well, let me think to back when i bought my car...what had to go....

mudflaps, bad tint, missing small interior parts(like the pieces that cover screws), and my all time pet peeve: cracked old weatherstrip.

of course, you wont find any of these on my car anymore (dont look too close, though, or im sure youll find something else! ha)

 

BRA"s! ESP on firebirds! They suck ***!

 

6 foot spoilers

fart cannons

neons

and anything else thats riced

just my 2 cents

 

SUV FENDER GAP, SUV FENDER GAP AND SUV FENDER GAP.

Every stock car has it

 

FENDER TRIM!!!! That Chrome junk

Big pieces of un-protected rust

huge Chevy emblem covering entire back window

Missing pieces, of lights

Ripped to shreads interior

No muffler

Driving with no Hood

Mud Flaps

Trailer Hitch

Blowing Blue

 

Let's see:

huge Chevy emblem covering entire back window
Ripped to shreads interior
No muffler
Mud Flaps
Trailer Hitch
Car Bras
"Euro" lights
Neons
Blackouts
Huge hoods
Cheap Monster or multiple spoilers
Multi-colors
Hacked up interiors/engine compartments/etc
Cheap looking aftermarket wheels
BACKSPACING! If you are buying a set of wheels, for the love of the all-mighty learn how backspacing works! Nothing worse than a set of wheels that don't fit under the car
Jacked up rears with monster tires (BARF! where's the trailer?)


That's all I have for now...

 

Well as long as you like it its cool. Besides, in 2wks when you get that LS1 and T56 swap done, I doubt anyone will give you trouble about a spoiler

 

I hope i did not miss this one above somewhere.

I really hate when the plastic inserts that go up in the fender and quarter panel are nasty looking. You would be surprised how much those can give you that new/fresh look when they are painted to new again.

Nice wheels covered in brake dust is my all time hate.

 

White letter tires that are old.

Window louvers.

Bubbling tint.

One headlight up, one down on the Firebirds.

Rusty exhaust pipes.

Windshield banners of any kind. (just my opinion)

Any gay kind of sticker with "aintskeerd" or Calvin pissing on something, "fear this", etc.

Mudflaps.

 

Maybe you guys have seen this, maybe not.
Im not sure if it falls under ugly or just stupid.

Riding around with just the drivers side T top out! It just bugs the **** out of me!

 

I havent seen the drivers side only out.........but im sure it happens.
Tons of smoke on start up (GUILTY)
mudflaps
no t top headliner (GUILTY)
Chrome trim
huge exhaust tips
aluminum wings
20"s.......leave it to the lacs!
window louvers
a missing hood louver
pep boys fog lights
broken gfx
brake dust on rims
a kid with ri.cer mentality behind the wheel
gold wire wheels
"aint skeered" stickers (besides the guy with that on his blower)
people smoking in their car.


I am now depressed thinking of all of this.

 

Amen, I knew I was forgetting a few!

 

i have a vinyl sticker on my windshield but it doesnt say anything, its a tribal thingy.
FEAR THIS! lol, i forgot about that one! My uncle has a huge sticker saying that on his car. What makes it better is he drives a 92 tarus!

 

The "Pro-Stock" hood scoops on fuel injected cars.

 

WOW and I was just startin to get a complex, thanx LOL

 

I hate huge wings on fwd cars, people that buy a random accesory from wal-mart and think their the fastest thing on the planet, and ricers that buy f-body's and make them ****. 2 like that in my area. Its a poor poor site.

O yeah, thought i would post this for everyone's enjoyment...\

I'm really **** about cars and many of the above things can look good but generally don't in my opinion. No offense to anyone, I know many people will hate how my car will look, but it's my car and yours are yours.

Peace and Love

 

Hey now... watch it

 

Things that make your ride look bad,

Fat chicks, not that i have anything against bigger people, but you can gather what im talking about from the pic below
I guess the only + side is more traction? or is that more drag?

 

Thx man, I can feel my lunch turning.

 

I said driving with no Hood cause yesterday I seen a Thirdgen Camaro driving around with what appeared to be an older 2nd gen hood. It kinda looked like it was just placed over top the the engine bay
