Modification Mania

Post by mysteryboy »

I noticed that there is more & more modified cars about.
Around where I live a year ago there was hardly any...
Now you constantly hear exhausts roaring, bass pumping....
There are so many mod'ed cars about now...(funny watching some go over speed bumps...haha when you see the back seat passangers get out while he goes over it :lol: you have to see it Hillarious)

Anyone else noticed an increase in mod cars around?

there are loadsa modded cars round my way.
here are a few highlights: (some good, some bad)

a pink modded 106, fully done up (girls car)
a pink wide arch saxo on normal wheels (no spacers)
a couple of puntos, one has alien vrs predator paint work (actually stunning work)
a pt cruiser on chrome 20s with harry potter air brushing

there r a few scoobys round and a couple of evos.
on the whole tho they r mainly novas, saxos clios, corsa etc and some very awful fiestas.
oh yes and a hyundai accent with a turbo sticker in the rear window! WTF :lol:

and thankfully, increasing numbers of polos, mainly mk4s (haven't as yet been able to flier any!!)

Must admit not really noticed an increase in modded cars round my area, there is a really nice red Fiat Punto just down the road though, lowered on some nice alloys, I can appreciate what the guy has done to it, very tastefully modded.

That would be so funny to watch lol,

Although one of my girl mates has a saxo lowered to the ground, on a recent trip 5 up you should have heard the scraping along the speed bumps, I thought we were gonna get beached at one point! Unlucky as my house is surrounded by speed bumps! :twisted:

i've noticed an increase in modded vag cars around here, though mainly mk4 golfs as they are becoming cheaper to buy now the mk5 has been out awhile, best one i've seen is a black mk4, tinted windows lowered on rs4 18's its so low you can't see the tyre side wall below the arch!
