Back in the f&f days it was all about bright colors body kits, and down right complete body fabrication. But now Im seeing less n less kits and everyone is basicly doin the factory look, Why? I mean I understand its personal preference and cheaper (more affordable) but I mean what is so cool about it? Its boring if u ask me. To have a completely modified car, from exterior, interior, audio, and motor is what car building was about? Headlight taillight conversion, frankinstein body kits from other cars is so much more interesting because its different and leaves u guessing and wondering how, what, where, how long, ect. But most people look down and/or frown upon it, why? Can someone help me with this please? I really want to hear thoughts n opinions and whatever else ud like to donate to this.

Yeah and thats wut bores me. Its so plain and simple. Theres no work or creativity in that style. Like the builder is to Lazy to use his imagination and creativity. So wut if he is called a ricer as long as he's proud of wut he built and it shows. Like my car for example, when I bought it, it had a spoiler side skirts n rims. I went through and completely changed almost every part. From when I started to where Im at now has changed. And when I look at it Im proud that I did it all with my own hands. Its as if some people have no pride, they just want it done now with as little work done as possible. Im not referring this toward anyone and Im not speaking against or on anyones behalf. Different people have different tastes I know. Just thinking out loud really, thats all lol.
