Photo thread for tacky car mods

[Nick1994]

I would like that car better if it was all black and didn't have a spoiler at all. I know this next comment is going to throw some people way off but I think I would still rather have a four-cylinder than a V6. I don't know if it's because of the gas mileage but it seems all four cylinders especially or mostly Japanese have a better build unless issues than v6s. I guess we can meet in the medium with a five cylinder but the last time I recall someone making one was Acura with the vigor.

The 2GRFE is a sweet motor. I drove my aunt's '16 Avalon a ton.

I've found these people who modify their cars with the parts found at a home depot to be rather entertaining

Was driving back to Kansas City and even found a vehicle from France driving over here.

Apparently it’s neat his eBay special Accord is a BRZ killer. It had a lot more pimp-mobile mods.

What's with the purple tail lights ... seems that would be illegal to me.

Pretty sure it is. But then, so is going 79 in a 65, right @Nick1994?

I can not get over the fact that LEOs seem to have given up on the enforcement of too dark windows that are supposed to be illegal and very dangerous to Policemen trying to do their jobs. I see so many totally blacked out windows in every kind of vehicle one can imagine.
This is so dangerous for everyone around these cars as we or the poor Police can not tell if a guy is in there pointing weapons at you. So many cars of the road like this tells me they either can not get the laws / fines enforced anymore or the LEOs finally got so outnumbered they can not even keep up anymore.

Too much other chaos going on that police can't keep up and stuff like that becomes noise in the system.

Sorry for the small thread hijack, as this isn't a tacky car mod, but more on topic of 2GR.

I had a 2010 Avalon. Power is great, and MPG too.
Now I have 2009 Pontiac Vibe, a Toyota Matrix mechanical twin.
But overseas Toyota did a combo of these two vehicles... Must be one quick hatchback. But with fuel consumption of a 2AZ, which was also offered in that car, FWD or AWD.
Here is 2008 Toyota Blade Master G.

Too late to edit this in, but here is an article about it that compares it to current Corolla GR.

^^^ Bet that thing scoots pretty good with the V6.

No I've seen some videos for people have their cars shipped over to do a tour. There's specific paperwork you have to fill out and all but it can be done. They had a military base down in New Mexico that the Germans were using and it was very common to see some of their cars on the roads with their license plates

Gag!

Not around central Iowa, been given tint tickets in three different cars...all were light enough tint you could see me, but Iowa has a zero tint on front windows law.
