Just hate seeing my car dirty, Love seeing it shine!
Daily was an overstatement, let me rephrase
Every NICE day we have! !!!! haha! if it rains, or rain the next day, pointless in washing it

It seems in my part of town, the most common mod is the fart can (mostly found on little imports).

Someone around me is a Saturn in primer gray with a dual nostril ram-air style hood.

Though in downtown is a burgundy 6th gen Monte on 22" wheels (and so you know, he has red door decals that say 22").
I also saw a 6th gen Monte about a year ago on the freeway, with HUGE wagon wheels. Seriously, I think the top of his tire was level with dew wipe on my car!!! I saw so much money WASTED on that.

I think the body kit stuff and really bad looking stuff has faded away over the years (or I'm just numb to some of it).

Ooof!

Maybe he was refering to all the garbage in the trunk? What is with that crap in there, and furthermore, why did you pop the trunk to photo it?

Lol `Mitch,
I don't know why some people do somethings to their ride, but it does provide some entertainment while traveling on the roads of life..." To each their own"
I really like the below Fart Can
