well i guess i give credit to the people in the vid for creating a completely new style/category of automotive customizing... but thats about, it IMO that **** is ugly as hell. but i guess i'll just start calling any f body with wheels bigger than 19" a camaro... kinda like a sub-category. just like i call any f-150 with a body kit a LOBO.
