I dont mean the people who do it right, I mean the people who just looks like they slapped everything they can find "cool" together, off paint, throw on some rims that are too wide and then add on the stupid stuffed animal. There are lot's of cars on here that are done RIGHT.

I drift and track my car, but that doesn't mean I don't take care of it.

Our cars are actually made mostly for older people with money who still want to feel young, haha I used to hate the drifters and all the other cars that are done up distastefully, but I stopped caring and just realized that their choices make me like my car/mods that much better.

Hey, it could be worse. I don't see people putting "junction produce" headrests and 50" wheels on SCs and calling themselves VIPs. They're doing it to LS400s. Usually those that can be found for $500 or less.

My take on this is. There are many examples of SCxxx out there. Some appreciated or received better than others. If you like the car don't worry what other are doing to it or with it. Fix it or built it to your needs or liking. I like SCXXX that look like this on OEM Rims. I am sure other would feel differently but as me if I really care.

It's likely the flex additive in the paint. Manufacturers add something to the paint of flexible materials such as plastics, urethane, rubber and fiberglass. This is because the materials tend to 'flex' more often than the metal components and helps resist cracking.
