Here's a place to show some of those bloody awful things that some folks do to "beautify" their cars.
Inspired by the disgusting pink paint job inflicted upon that poor unfortunate MGF featured in another thread on this Forum, I figured we need a place to share the pain of seeing such vulgar displays of appalling automotive taste.

So the get the ball rolling, I submit these visual delights for your perusal!


Of course no such discussion could leave out the Teddybear wheel. Mazda actually fitted these OEM to 121s....


Some owners choose to make a bad situation worse.......



And now a variation on the theme......


How about letting your inner chariot gladiator make a statement?......


Splendid! not just the wheels, the whole ensemble makes a statement on this Caddy (note the video screens in the headrests of the rear seats, so the drivers following can be entertained?)


Why?.......


Tasteful.......



Wanna make a statement?.....


This wheel certainly makes a statement about it's owner.......


And here's one especially for Andy.....


Although I've started with wheels, any posting depicting acts of automotive molestation and defilement will be welcome. :bust:

I bet this thing has interesting handling traits, the negative camber seems a bit extreme.......
Quality job of the front flares too, a couple of bits of bent tin!

Ahh I see now, he was copying this bloke.....

Here's a picture I took at a local petrol station of a Nissan GTR with every panel outlined with striping tape. Sadly it's not unique...I have seen a Lambo suffering from the same treatment. :slapme:


Saw this "Barbie" hot-rod at a local auto show


And this Hot Wheels Tiger belonged to her husband :pinch:


And let's not forget the Japanese! :woo2:

The flame job on the Morry is just plain bloody awful but to do the same on the Tiger is a barbaric act of sacrilege! :omg:

Car bras, are another misguided effort, apart from the fact that they're as ugly as a hat full of arseholes, and the that they do more damage to paint work than stone chips (sweating the paint and grinding in dirt as they fret) they remind me of gimp masks!........This.....

always reminds me of this



Here is another take on automotive underwear........

:lol:


What did this poor bloody fiat do to deserve this?.........

That beige stuff stuck all over it is actually leather.....that'll age well, out in the weather! :nonod:

Christ on a stick! That van is awful, all that plastic tat and none of it tasteful! The front overhang must be fun on driveways and speed humps! :nonod:
As for that pink Ford, it looks like it'd might be a float in the Gay Mardi Gras :lol:
The cardboard body kit is a nice touch! :lol:

I'll just leave this here.
You might want to peruse www.barryboys.co.uk and have a look at the shed database. I'm not sure if you need to register or not?

This leaves me utterly speechless.....mainly because my mouth is full of sick.....


Proof that money cant buy good taste.........



This is just unnecessary......


What's with pink and idiots, they seem to keep close company........

I actually like that. Certainly nowhere near as bad as the other abominations.
