I knew I liked you for some reason, 'cheap & tacky', that's you Greg alright!

This thread is a great service for those on the forum who might be thinking of doing some of these things to the vette they own. With all the comments, I would hope they stop and rethink what they are about to do!

I support owners adding widgets, decals, neon lights and chrome googaws making their cars look like something from "Speed Racer".
It makes mine (and maybe yours) look that much better...

At the risk of getting flamed I'm gonna say that sometimes all of us, myself included, have an idea for a mod and do it. Then we find that it doesn't turn out the way we expected. What to do? Most of us change it back or try something else. I applaud those who try something different.
So, having said that, I don't think any of my above argument applies to any of the cars shown in this thread.

There is no such thing as an ugly Vette! Gross, maybe. Disgusting, definitely.
Hope they're not Forum members!
