well go figure, they don't have bubbles and donks over there so they gotta have an alternative to BIG *** rims.... so what do they do, Big *** pipes lol... If you think about it those cars are about thier equivalent to our big rim cars, older 80's cars etc.. They never got them over there, so they use thier own cars from the 80's and since they can't fit huge rims obviously, they go for HUGE offset/dish/widebody/massive tailpipes haha

I'm speachless

Actually, its not the only thing they are about there, Notice the skylines in the backround. Its kinda like low-riders here in the states. Show cars only based upon how you were raised. If we grew up in that culture, I'm sure we'd all be into skylines and supras, but these lap cars wouldn't be so un-usual. I wouldn't be surprised if they looked at our scene and looks at "donks, bubbles, and boxes", and view things much differently.

I'm sure they are still confused why some people are so interested in getting our cars to hop up and down on 10" daytons.

I've been paying attention to these for about 6, or 7 years now, and the biggest focus with the design is the tailipes, and how far they are willing to go with fiberglass.

I would try and find my gallery's and share them, but I'm a work, so I can't really get into them. The vans arn't much differnt, infact, most are animated, and almost appear as a circus. Brilliant lights, and huge veriety it what they strive on.

I think its kinda cool, how-ever, I wont participate in the events, but I'll casually watch from the sidelines.

I am sorry to hear that and please do not share anymore about this subject with us. No matter what you do or say no one is going to think it is ok or cool. That is the most f-ed up thing I have ever seen done to a car.

it's a style that is pretty much based on how outrageous you can make it.
