    I disagree. Big time. It works perfectly well. But it's usually the other crap done to those Hondas that takes away from it.

    I'd love to see painted wheels go away. Later, QD.

    "Graffiti-ed" hoods
    Sticker-ed lips/spoilers
    Blue painters tape on the front of a car driving to a show
    Splatter paint


    That's pretty much it.

    Let each guy do his own thing, I like some of the original things these guys come up with. But if that guy happens to be the guy that follows everyone else, doesn't affect my life. Rock on brotha.

    Tire stretching has been around so long I doubt that's ever going away, I think aggressive fitment is here to stay.

    It has been in the Euro scene for quite some time.

    I'd like to see Graffiti hoods gone as well, but everything else I disagree with I can attribute to having different tastes. Graffiti hoods never look good, though.

    THINGS I DO WANT TO SEE.....

    1. more classic cars ( classic Ferrari, Porsche,BMW, Mercedes) rocking newer car motor swaps.
    2. Integra del sol conversion (this was actually the fate of my first integra...a project i bit off more than i could chew.)
    3. electric powered cars.....
    4. diesel swaps.....
    5. awd S2000 and NSX
    6. imported early EVOS and STIs
    7.VQ37 swaps into sentras and G20s
    8.female enthusiast.
    9.custom homemade parts from enthusiast (if you can dream it you can make it.)
    10.supercharged and turbo charged cars. (duel charging)

    THINGS I DO NOT WANT TO SEE.
    1.stretched tires
    2.splatter paint
    3.different color engine bays
    4.another fast and furious movie or a movie about the stanced and the serious.
    5.people follow all the trends (be yourself. do you)
    6.stolen cars and people that know this is the way their "friends" make money. enthusiast back down to these thiefs by going for the clean sleeper look.....face it your car still looks stock with some wheels...god only knows what you have missing to make it that low.
    7. cut spring bouncy cars.....ebay coilovers etc....
    8.dyno/trailer queen cars.
    9.overdone stickers.
    10.vending machine on wheels.

    i can dig people wanting to change up things on cars....really its all good....i just hate it when everyone wants the same thing and the guy that wants to be a little different and not follow the trends gets looked at like hes a fool........if everyone wanted catalog cars think how boring it would be......i like spoon and all that just as much as the next guy but you have to draw the line somewhere.....i want to see more like it was back in 2000...

    I don't see a problem with the look of tucked bays. I can imagine that it could be a PITA if something goes wrong and you have to access the wiring or other tucked lines.

    I don't like it when people are misleading with their thread titles and usernames. For example, there could be some guy that posts an "All Motor Build - NA BEAST" thread, when it is just a Civic with stock B18C swap. Or there could be somebody with a username like Driftordrag, but owns a car that is good for neither drifting nor drag racing.

    The only thing I want people to stop doing is putting chinese shit HID kits in their pos imports. Use the money to buy something that isn't endangering others. As far as all the other things people do that I hate, fuck it. Everyone should continue doing their own thing in 2011 just like 2010.

    I have a request.....

    .....PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN THE TRUE DEFINITION OF JDM!!!!!! CF lips are not JDM. CF duckbills are not JDM. Amber corners are not JDM. If you have foglights on your Civic and they don't say Stanley or Raybrig, guess what......THEY'RE NOT JDM!!!

    Boom! That just happened.
    I'd also like to see a bit of a increased following in the euro market in this area.

    Big wings on FWD cars. Cracked fiberglass repaired with zip ties. stuffed animals hanging from tow hooks. tow hooks. front lips that dont fit. tacky colored rims. Cars with no front bumpers. super stretched tires. balls hanging from your hitch. Stickers on your windshield that say stupid unrelated bullshit like "illest" or "still hood". S2000s with dumbass body kits that make them look like transformers (Yes, im talking about that blue one). Ricers. "Drift" cars.
