Unhappy
Starting to feel a bit weird now ... everything i hated about people commenting on my car i have reversed the floodgates by publishing this unfortunate persons ride..

It did strike me as weird when i heard the open exhaust/brakes squeel / saw the stickers/bulge/wheels/wings/aerials/subs/altezzas - and bumble bee tuna paintjob... but i shoulda not put that pic up should i ??!

I might get bagged for this, but I'm going to defend this guy. I think it looks OK. Granted its only a visual mod, but it makes a difference to the look and isn't over the top. Makes as much sense as the twin exhaust tips you can stick on a single system.

Kinda like a bonnet bulge on a 6...or a shaker on a modern V8.

Just had a thought, maybe its a test mule for the new Coyote S/C V8.

And they thought no-one would spot them in an Eseries wagon....

If the there was a proper duel tip it would be fine, but having the extra tips on the otherside is OTT.

Mind you, i don't have a propblem with other stuff like bulges stripes ect. IF someone has an XT and want it to look like a GT, i have no (Real) problem with that (besides repetitiveness lol)

I dont mind the look either, but would be better if they were actually were connected. I am in the process of doing my exhaust to look similar to that on my white el wagon but I am using FPV GT style tips and made my custom bar to suit dual exhausts

Regarding the Merc driver, I've always had the opinion that intelect(being a lawyer) and common sense are two different things.
