Yep, ripe old age of 26, and I'm proud I've never once considered bonding on some shite looking body kit to a decent car. I Dont mind modded Evo/scoobies, its the ones that are obviously chavved up cruise wagons that look proper shit IMO. A decent set of motorsport rims is all they need to look shit hot.

Lynne, Yes RS owners have a past history of some horrendous looking cars, it wasnt a dig at JUST scooby/evo owners, just the ones with no taste who pimp them up to look shit
LOL praps you should amend your post to.... scooby/evo/RS & any other rally based road weapon owners get it all wrong by 'blinging' them up with lex-arse lights and wank fiddly looking 18/19 inch wheels?

TBH my pet dislike is the fully stickered up Scoobs trying to look like a rally car..... I think they look truly awful - YUK!

Blame the big selling mags. Max Power etc. They convince people thats the way to mod their cars. They tell you 17's on a Fiesta really 'sort out the handling'.....

Erm, right.....
