:gag:

Thats what I was talking about: youve done mods to a tasteful degree, those things are just hideous. That degree of lowering and low profile tires doesnt work on a Forester. Its like seeing a really hairy and fat Hungarian dude on the beach in speedos. Wince.

Mate of mine had the top ones on a Rover Coupé, and they looked utter wank.

Yup so far youve done a really nice tasteful job on your car.  It says classy work.  Those would right royally screw up the look if thats what you were going for.  The top are probably the best of the three options but its a bad bunch to pick from...

Ã, 
Chavd-up cars just make me piss myself.

The drivers think Im pointing at them, saying "wow, look at that dudes ride"...  When in fact Im saying "look at that knob-end" :roll:

End the chavness. Its not impressive - it just makes you look like a tit.

Nowt personal, like - just my own thoughts / 2Ã,¢

Ive often wondered why some people spend so much money making their car look horrible, when they could have bought a daihatsu and it would have been done for them, and been a damn sight cheaper.

IMO they are worse than a Daihatsu :(

Probably a poke at me, but Ive driven two Daihatsus and theyre among the nicest and most reliable economy cars money can buy. Ive got one sitting outside whose upholstry looks factory new after 14 years. Engine runs like day one, and design is generically Japanese enough to not look horridly dated like many 10+ year old British and American cars do.

Its not a poke at you, but I just think its an unasthetically pleasing car.


I saw a Clio with the entire contents of Ripspeed stuck on it and it looked dire.

Although I would have the Charade Turbo.  but, he who burns twice as bright lasts half as long.

Looks a lot like a 205 GTi from that angle if you just glance past it, took me a few seconds to clock what it actually was.
