Car mods that you don't understand why people do them?
What are some mods that you just don't understand why some people do them? I don't understand why people do RHD conversions in the US. To me it seems like a huge hassle, and seems like it would be an inconvenience. There are few exceptions to this, but for the most part I will never understand why people do this.

Fartcans

When people put big tires and rims on a truck but never go off-road. That's the reason to have those tires, yet they don't use them. It's stupid. Also when people buy Ford F-650 and make it look like a regular truck. Their is no reason to do that.

3 RepliesThe broom-broom mod. Yeah, your car is now loud - does it look better? No. Does it go faster? No. Are you trying to attract attention by making a loud noise? Yes. Does that make you an annoying attention hungry whore? Yes.

14 Replies(not in any particular order) 1) Open diesel exhausts that belch huge clouds of black smoke 2) Those ghetto late '70-early 90's land yachts what look like they are on truck lift kits and 30" wheels 3) ricers that do whatever wing, muffler, decal, headlight conversion to their car. What a waste. Do something to the drivetrain! 4) mini truck tail draggers 5) neon - thankfully that one has died out 6) bass tubes

3 RepliesSpoilers and widebody kits...just why.

3 RepliesPaper thin tires. Those things have to wear out fast, and the ride can't be smooth at all.

Rims on trucks, though I really don't care what mod someone uses as long as they like it. If I ever get a car I'll probably do engine and transmission work with some not too noticeable custom hood. I like my car fast but you wouldn't know its fast just by looking at it.

Fart cans. But the lamest "car mod" I've ever seen is when someone tied a little plush Super Mario mushroom to the back of his car. Saw it once going to work, the stupid thing was bouncing off the road behind him. And to top it off, the guy was Asian. This isn't really a car mod gripe, but I also hate when people drive around with burnt out headlights. Buy a spare at Wal-Mart and replace it already!

5 RepliesAnything that ruins a perfectly good Japanese car, like fartcans, massive spoilers(bonus points if it's FWD), Type-R stickers, wide body kits, slamming.

2 RepliesFartcans. Please. Just stop.

Those mufflers that sound like pissed of bumble bees aka fartcans. It's like they want people to notice even more how shitty their car is.

Edited by DesticleStomper6: 1/26/2014 11:08:30 PMthere are a couple, it depends. But i guess the biggest one for me is when some guy has like some old lemon status rice burner and does whatever ridiculous "enhancement" (whether it be a coffee can for a muffler, or if the muffler/part of the exhaust was removed) to make their exhaust sound ridiculously loud for nothing. On top of that, that shit sounds like farting bumble bee, and not in a good way. I don't understand what goes through their minds. I wouldn't be surprised if they thought in their little wanna be fast and furious world they pull up to evo's or vette's or what have you thinking they stand a chance. Runner up would be ridiculous body kits/exterior add on's. tl;dr: rice burners w/fartcans, and tasteless bodykits
