Are the thought processes the same for stickers like that and having identikit tattoos (same pattern as hundreds of thousands of other like-minds) , all in the name of trying to convey individuality

That makes me feel sad, such a fantastic car that doesn't need stupid looking tribal stickers to help it stand out.

Oh and I find the BMW with shark teeth mildly amusing, I'd rock that look for show season but i'd get get bored and perhaps embarrassed long term.

Not badly modified at all, looks like a lot of time, effort and money has been spent...

The Lamborghinis are abhorrent, but they're a reflection of part of the Japanese bosozuku "scene" which as I understand it is basically about being as obnoxious and antisocial as possible. I struggle to think of anything more obnoxious than a flared-arch Lamborghini covered in animal print and shiny stuff, with a fairly lights all over it and a preposterously loud exhaust. So I guess it's achieved its goal, there.

Of all the stickers its the one that says "Racing car" that stands out as the worst.

What is it with this scene trying to make all their cars look like they have come straight out of disney??

It originates in Japan, and it's basically modification because you can. And sometimes it helps squeeze a ridiculously large dish inside the wheel arch. All about pushing the limits, out doing each other. Most the cars will be running on day plates that allow them to run any car they want on the road for one day. These are white with a red stripe over them.

That looks US to me, and is most likely just a bit of fun/a joke. If cars aren't for having fun, what are they for?

Fair point i guess and i understand the concept in the jap scene as its usually mundane run of the mill cars that are jazzed up for fun but it still seems rather pointless taking what is a performance car and making it useless above 25mph.

The M3 was in the latest Performance BMW mag (if its the same one and minus the teeth). Looks like a nice car.

Didn't get a chance to get pics but in Bradford (where else - home of the badly modified car) a new shape Fiat Panda drove past me today with massive aerials, huge rally style mud flaps and stickers everywhere. Real classy.

And I was following a 1.6 mk4 Golf last night that had also been hit by the sticker douchebag with a "ooosh" and "bang tidy" sticker adorning the boot lid.
