Awkward design details on production cars
Discussion
Today on my commute to work I saw a couple of cars that had little design elements to them (or maybe lack of design elements) which just looked awkward to me.
There must be others, but the two which stand out to me are:
Peugeot 508 hatchback - the badge placement on the rear bumper is a bit off when viewed from directly behind, surely going on the lower right of the boot lid would have been the better option?
The other is every current watered down "Chevrolet" Aveo where they put the front badge on the bumper, rather than on the grill, and it looks wrong on a lot of levels...

New Civic Type-R - Every damn part of the car, from front to back
Fixed that for you.However, for the purposed of the OP, specifically those weird stuck on plastic strips under the rear light/indicator...apologies, not the best close-up picture. Actually, apologies for posting the whole of the rear.

If you drive an mx5 or other small low car, you see just how many of these big exec saloons and SUV have - in reality - weedy little peashooter exhausts inside the big blingy chrome exhaust tips.
I think 95% + of people know that's for looks. Which is a good thing, as peashooters look pants.The petrol cap on the facelift Focus.

The lopsided Mini Clubman, if you're going to put rear doors in at least put them in both sides! Same with the Hyundai Veloster.
Would you say the same for every Transit/Vivaro/Sprinter on the roads though? Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
