Default What do you hate seeing other people do to F-Bodies?

I'm talkin anything. Wheels, badges, ground effects, paint schemes, hoods, whatever.

My list is:

Y2K Vette wheels. The thin spoke ones.
LS1 front ends that are molded and painted
hockey stripes
Cowl hoods ruin Camaros. If you have a cowl hood on your Camaro, please take it off.

Theres probably more I would have to look around though.

Go ahead.

I dont think the Y2k wheels are that bad and the silver one's are cheap and great quality..I have a few pics of my old trans am with it. Other then that a little hard work and attention and an F body or any car can look great even if every one does not think so.

Its probably just me but I don't like turndowns on t/a and ws6's. It looks funny to me when they have a precut valence for tips but nothing is there...

-Cheap interior overlay's (carbon-fiber, etc.)

-Eagle 077's or something like that. They are a cheap 5 spoke that everyone gets from ebay. Hate them.

-All black rims with no lip. Looks like a spare tire.

-C6 z06 rims :shudder:

i hate seeing Firebird/ TA owners paint the "Trans Am" or "Firebird" raised lettering on their car doors another color.. or paint the bird on the grill.. or paint the fender grills or WS6 hood grills..

I also hate people that go nuts with spray paint and paint their interiors.. and add gay accents to everything..

Neon lights are ugly too..

20" wheels..

Ugly exhaust tips..

reflective window tint (you know like silver or red or yellow)

Yellow fog lights

aftermarket foglights

for camaros.. i cant stand these stupid "Halo" lights..

stupid custom license plate's.. like "SVT HU" or "SVTWho" "GTKILLR"

SS symbols on a Z28 or SS/Z28 symbols on a V6 when you can plainly tell it isnt.

anything larger than an 18'' wheel, period

when the tires are too skinny for the wheel and look stretched

colored tint

euro lights are a given

tacky colors interior/exterior

body kits that arent stock

spoilers other than stock, SS, or 3 piece
