2006 Dumb and Dumber Car Accessory Awards
« on: December 12, 2006, 01:15:44 PM »
This year has brought us some very funny stuff. Today I saw a Neon with a huge 2 liter bottle size muffler tip, but it gets better  ::), On the side of the car behind the door are "Stick-ON" I wanna be cool NASCAR Exhaust tips  ::) To finialize this guys bad ideas, he had a 3 feet wing on the back of the car  :D

Share a good one you have found, and provide pics if you can  ;D

This weekend I saw an old Dodge Shadow, completely stock except for the huge aluminum wing on the trunk lid. I don't know how much those things cost, but I'm sure it was more than the car's worth. What gets in these people's heads? As soon as I saw it I thought, "Where's my camera when I need it?"  ::)

I was thinking the same thing. when I saw that one this morning... ;D

I'll bet this Festiva is much faster because of the wing, now for some 10hp stickers  :D

Ahh... the "Tuners". Ground effects, Buzz-Bomb muffler and a giant wing and you get an instant pimpmobile... RIGHT!!! <snicker>

It's fun smoking them with my 750! ;D

A clapped-out Escort in town has a WOODEN rear wing. Looks like he backed into a park bench. Never have a camera when I see it.

Their is a guy I see going to work now and then who has a 80's something ford pick-em up truck with a Home (I repeat HOME)
window a/c unit duct taped into his back window. He must have some kinda cray power invertor setup to make that thing work.

Would def. pump out the cold air though... ;)
