yeah those are ugly, except for the cars that come with them stock... when i was crusing through orlando not to long ago i must have seen 3-4 cars with them on in a row, POS camry,a 300, altima and i don't remember the last... soon the ricers will find out it gives them horsepower and start adding them to

black peoples loves they stick-on's dawwwg
thats the only fools I see have them. The worst part is, they know absolutely nothing about them. Every single one of them have three on each side, no matter if its a 4banger, V8 or even a 3 cylinder Metro (that had a donk theme and 17's on it, 17's look like 20's on a metro)

I think this whole trend really started when Maserati came out with one of their new cars and it had REAL fender vents on the side, then some of the automakers jumped on the bandwagon of doing it, which is still okay, but then every other idiot started making imitations and they're spreading like wildfire. Well i shouldnt call the guy who created the fake ones an idiot because he's probably one rich bitch by now, unfortunately goes to show you sometimes bad ideas are the best ideas

I point and laugh everytime I see them down here in Southeastern Louisiana where they are like on every other hunk of junk on the road.

I saw one the other day that had 4 on each side! I guess 3 wasn't enough.

My favorite was a couple weeks ago it was some 80's dodge car that an old guy had them on....but they were on the DOOR....Okay, not finished yet...not only were they on THE FREAKING DOOR, but they were going from TOP TO BOTTOM!!!

BWHAHAHHAHAHAH......freaking morons.

Buick has had these forever (though they stopped for a while in the 80's and 90's) 3 per side for a 6 cyl and 4 per side for a 8... Just really stupid seeing these on every car under the sun now
