Default Fine Line

There is a very fine line between doing too much and doing it just right. When I first saw CamRen's car (before the rear spoiler), I thought that it was very well done. But if you just glance at this picture you would say that they look close to being the same. Most people don't know the difference in junk and class. Some would say that any mod to a car (especially a Lexus) would be considered ghetto. Window tint, lowered suspension, big rims, subwoofers and big exhaust all fall into that catageory in some people's opinion. Luckly, we all have Club Lexus as a source of reference so that we can become educated to doing things the right way.

That can't be real......how does the car turn without rubbing?! And yes, that is such poor judgement in spending money on modding a car.

I think ive actually seen that car in person and its even uglier when you get up close. Looks like he has coilovers, but he might of just cut the springs:eek: That car just has way to much going on. Its not as bad as that blue one though imo.

Maybe it's riding on airbags or hydraulics and is just lowered while stationary.

It's still hideous either way.

Airbags, that's what I was thinking.... Because with coilovers he'd have to start getting ready to leave a hour before he wanted to.... But yeah it does look like *****......

Visual mods are just car jewelery and acounting for good taste is purely subjective. However, I don't like it either. It looks like it's drawing a crowd though.
