No need to make blanket comments bud, especially that "Fast and Furious" part, strive to respect the views/tastes of others whether you agree or not.

I just found it funny that people were denouncing a mod while they have themselves multiple paragraphs detailing their own mods in their signature lines.

While I personally do not wish to lower my car or alter the exhaust to make it sound like it has an exhaust leak as others do, I respect their opinions.

It just seems that putting non-functional wings, engine mods that add fractions of a second, and the like are a little juvenile. But again, that is just my opinion. From looking at cars driving down the road I can see that I am in the minority in my views.

Jayson B, I am only going to address you once more, because you respond to a even-keeled post with condescending tones in your reply. Because a person mods they car, they should like every mod out there? Is that to imply that since people who choose to do aero mods have no taste anyway, we might as well like tacky interior jobs as well?

Thats fine bro, as you noted your are quite obviously in the minority around these parts keep that in mind with regards to the tone of your posts.

Thanks alot man.

Let's all just chill a bit, shall we? I didn't see anything wrong with the "tone" of his post--he was respectful and mature. Personally I agree with him 100% and think the reason he's facing some pushback is because his insightful comments cut a little too close to the bone for some folks' comfort...

Back on topic, does ANYONE really think that fake LV print accents make a car look BETTER?

I can’t recall seeing black print LV before. If would of went with black print Gucci material. Uh just out of curiosity why did you do the wood grain sections?

joshoowa: not my car, just takin a poll to see peopl's comments on how they like the print's on the cars. i know a lot of people are using them these days, and i'm not going to lie, was actually thinking of doing my headliner in a pring. Still might, but won't go as far as to redo my woodgrain materials, i love that look waaaayyy to much!

I've actually thought about re-doing my interior also...i never thought about the prints (i personally think its ugly)...however i since my car is white and its rare to see the black on white combo...i was thinking about redoing my whole interior....black dash...black leather.....w/ blackwood inserts.....and a black suede headliner....thats how i would have done it...If your going to re-do your interior i say keep it simple. 1 or 2 tone at the most....no patterns and not too much alternating between the 2 tones if your going the 2 tone route.
