You guys are still seeing riced out hondas with fart cans? Those died out around here at least 18 years ago. Import guys are still here, but in very small numbers now. When the Fast-n-Furious movies came out those Honduh guys were everywhere in traffic driving like morons and wanting to race everybody. That lasted for years, but eventually the pants down around their ankles frat boys crashed them, blew the engines up one too many times, or got bored and moved on. Now the fad is lifted 4x4 diesel trucks blowing soot across 3 lanes at 110 decibels when they get on it.

The wheels and tires? Or the extended tow mirrors while not towing?

Yeah we have the diesels too, the worst one yet was actually a very clean 93 or older dodge cummins but the kid put the exhaust stack straight up through the box, right at windshield level so you'd get a face full of nasty diesel soot at every green light when behind it

Same with the Harley straight pipe clowns that feel the need to fire up their POS at 5am and let it run for a half hour before leaving for work.

Yeah, I was thinking he's going to get followed into a parking lot somewhere and not enjoy the confrontation. That has to be the most arrogant "mod" you could possibly do
