Ok, this is what I saw when driving home yesterday.

Personally, I don't consider a Daewoo Lanos with an oversized spoiler a 'NICEONE'. :P
(And sorry about the poor quality of the pic - my windscreen was a little dirty at the time.)

Has anyone else seen/have pictures of similarly bad choices of cars that have been done up?

Unbelievable that these dudes think that these cars look good, someone has to like them I guess or there would be no market for them

excuse me while I gouge my eyes out with a wooden spoon

Jeff, whoever created the Supra needs to be removed from the gene pool - he's definitely from the shallow end.

He shouldn't be allowed to breed. Imagine what his kids would look like if he could customise them as well. (shudder) Some people just have NO taste

I've snapped a few pics with my phone of some Perth rice I've seen around lately.

A good one a few months back was like an early nineties magna with HKS and Ralliart stickers on it (shudder).

There was some real rice in the city the other day, an Accord with drift wing, gold wheels (nothing against gold wheels personally hehe), and purple vinyls all down the side. Yuk yuk yuk.

And as Stephen pointed out, we have some good examples in the WA forums.

I don't hate people in general, but I really do believe that those people should just be shot!

Whats wrong with the Echo?

The sticker on the engine cover is a bit much, but other than that its lowered on decent wheels with an exhaust. Or is it against the law to modify your car if its not a high-end luxury car?

It should be!

Haha just kidding. I agree the Echo isn't that bad but it isn't a performance car, so people always sort of look funny at it.

Echo's are great as long as the lil girls who they were designed for are the only ones who drive them.

Perhaps those spoilers were an option on the Lanos? I remember seeing the same type on a Lanos in Sydney a couple of weeks ago.

Dominik, it sounds great but it doesn't mean you should put on a bunch of air dams and extra weight to try and reduce it!

BTW Just checked your profile, pimpin' aight!

Luke, thanks... But thats a stock Echo front bumper! Infact the only mods are suspension, wheels and exhaust - hardly 'rice' IMO (unless you take on the Honda kids JDM y0! version of rice where *any* mod visible from more than 2m away is considered rice)

But i will admit that the Echo sedan is not exactly a pretty car to begin with!

Perry, come here you Toyota driving, closet Hyundai-fan. You need another slapping.

At least these are aftermarket additions. I saw this factory standard Kia at a dealership as I was passing by with a WRX lookalike kit on it (have ya seen it before?) with a huge spoiler and skirts, it even has a WRX style intercooler bonnet scoop (what intercooler???)
