RX 8's weren't meant for this either but it must be ok right?

Ask yourself what you would tell this guy if you saw his car in person...honestly

but it is your car and YES it is a generational thing....

True. It is more so generational. 7 years ago it was all screamo/metal/lincoln park music in every car video.

These media groups that perpetuate the scene certainly know how to monetize the trends. They all have created their own clothing lol.

Because first of all, I'm a nerd. Secondly, I DO care about this thread. The idea that this crap should be left alone because its his car is old. He posted this abomination. Its my duty, as a nerd, to comment.
Everyone on here obviously really digs Evos. When you see someone destroying that which you care about, it strikes a nerve. Not only as a car guy, but as a human. It is so immensely mindless, to take something with a specific purpose and remove that purpose in its entirety, voluntarily.
Whatever, do what you want. If you don't do it, some other genius would stumble on this bright idea eventually anyway. Good luck being the first.

^ No one is stopping him, especially by typing a few words.

Who has actually said "You better not do it"? Most are giving there personal opinion positive or negative

BUT it is a public forum with public opinions. I could post pics of my bland old evo and if I get flamed for it, so be it. I'm not going to change it. Everyone is entitled to their opinion good or bad...anywhere

Show and Shine would be hypocritical if at the top it said "ONLY SAY NICE THINGS" Is this a Dictatorship where you are only allowed to have certain opinions? ask yourself that question

and this seems to be an under 30 thing anyways

Interesting that people who have turned their Evo into a drag car are commenting that he ruined his car..

You also modified your car to work in a way that it wasn't designed to do.

By your own logic any Evo not being rallied is 'ruined'.
