These are mine:

Washer jet lights
NEONS
Spinners
Fake bonnet pins that dont serve a purpose, you've riveted it to the bonnet, why not go that next step and make it work
Chrome alloys
Bad Boy bonnets
Mesh here there and every-Fucking-where
Stick on bonnet vents that arnt functional
Rear fake discs
Tattoo like stickers
Shit paint work
Headlight eye brows
Bodykits
Bee sting ariel
Windscreen "touring car" sunstrips
Window tints
Door stickers that you havent actually havent got the make of what it says on your car
MAX POWER stickers
Interior parts that you can pull off, and when people respray them a completley different colour to car eg: blue car, silver interior parts
Colour coded body work, Ie: bump strips
Magic trees
CD's on fans ( RST boy racers favourite )
Exhausts that arnt needed, why do you need more than 1 when you only got 4 cylinders with a perfecylt good 4-2-1 system
Spoilers made of alloy that are ment to be "touring car like"
Smoothed boot lids
Excessive chrome in random places
Chrome spinner hubcabs
No door handles ( good saftey point that )
Cars smoothed off with 10 tonne of filler, for it to crack as soon as its driven off
BIG BORE Exhausts on a standard system, that gives off a rasp that sounds uttlerly shocking
FAKE CARBON (BIG HATE OF MINE)
Fake dump valves
Electronic dump valves
Light up valve caps
White dials
Clear rear lights
Blue headlights, the ones that try and look like the new alfas, mercs but dont and are actually blue
Lexus lights
That shitty fake Aeroquip look hosing
Flamer Kits
Cars that have alloys on but are not lowered
Curbed Alloys, its not that expensive to get them repaired, or just sort your fucking driving out


Think thats it

Personally my least favourite things are exhauist pipe trims, those quad lights (not morrette ones) but the ones where there are 4 lights in each side, i.e for saxos etc.... and the worst has GOT to be those crappy aluminium fast and the furious style spoilers.....Arrrrrggggh ghastly things i tell thee! Not to mention anything made of fibreglass.

The stickers that some cheesedogs put down their cars or across the back windows that look like a tattoo...

Also, the seat RIGHT back so they are looking out of the back window....

WHY!!!!!!

A few things sprint to mind such as the quad exhausts on Saxos, Clio's etc. Also the "morette" headlamp stickers

However, nothing as bad as a "Bad Boy bonnet"

Cars with them should be crushed

It doesn't look "cool" - just stupid....

IMO obviously

W3RD! They are so shite, usually screwed directly on top of the existing plastic spoiler (a Calibra I saw recently comes to mind), and they just look SHITE.

I don't think my car deserves crushing because of it though!
