Default When modifying goes wrong...............

Just browsing the net, looking for a few choice mods to possibly do to the MR2 for next year, as you do................

Now I don't normally like that shit barryboys site, but there's just no excuse for this debacle of a car:

Awesome! I think J-Tuner should feature it!

How could you embarrass yourself like that ?

Why would anyone do that ?????? That's even worse than anything on Pimp My Ride - and some of them are really bad................

The best line on the thread though is
also a mate of mine works at the shop where the guy bought the paint from, he actually refuses to serve him now because he cant stop laughing afterwards and is afraid he might damage his kidneys.

Priceless!
