IMO, when folks put all that chrome plastic trim on a vehicle thinking it looks "classy". See it a lot on 1/2 tons, chrome gas filler door, chrome grill accents, chrome wheel well molding, chrome door handles. Just looks tacky.

Had a guy bring a brand spanking new GT500 to Advance Auto when I worked there in college. He bought all the plastic cheap chrome lip moldings, fake vents, accents...I cringed but it was his car.

I don't agree with all of them.

I remember when this came out and they where everywhere. If they where real neon and not led or plain colored lights i think in some case it looked cool. Not that i would install it on any of my rides.

Curb feelers on anything! I bet there are some members here who don't even know what they are.

Not only cowl hoods any GM styled raised hoods.
One i forgot one that may have been mentioned is the 8 inch chrome exhaust tip sticking out a foot on the back of any ricer. I think this fad died because i don't see it much anymore.

In case it hasn't been mentioned; This!

how 'bout those kewel fluorescent green and pink wiper blades, tag frames, and stick on "cell phone" antennas ?

I have a cowl induction hood on my 2nd gen ram and it looks great, I won’t be removing it either.

Repairs that won't last, or mods are trendy. Both create extra work for the next owner years later.

Dash and door panel hackery for aftermarket radios and speakers. See that a lot and many times the radio is low end junk.

Shaving drip rails and door handles on old cars.

Thick application of Bondo instead of lead where lead is the most appropriate material.

Cheap window tint that turns purple and is full of air bubbles. If it looks bad remove it and redo it at least.

Cutting a hole in a hood for a round chrome air cleaner that sticks up 1/2" above the hood. At least get a scoop for it. Or locate a drop base air cleaner first to see if that could have been avoided.

Any car painted w/ that awful color shifting paint!

Or Kindig door handles on every car I have ever seen them on.

He acts like he invented those handles when they came stardard on the 69 Pontiac Grand Prix!

Pistol grip shifter on an auto trans
Tuff steering wheel on everything
68 round side marker lights on other year cars
High impact paint on anything other than 70-71 cars
Green axle bearings
Pertronix ignition
MT valve covers
Mopar performance cast aluminum valve covers and air cleaner top
4 doors and wagons made into Road runner/GTX/super bee
Etc

I've done most of that stuff! Are you following me around?

I don't get most of these! Tuff wheels, M/T- Mopar performance cast aluminum valve covers you are saying are not cool? I would have to strongly disagree!
Here is one that will get a rise out of people, Black rims on anything!!!! Absolutely hideous! Don't know how this became a "thing". And i might as well mention raised white letter tires with the letters on the INSIDE. Seems one bad choice goes with the other.

Me too,except for the 4 door wagon thing.and I wouldn't change a thing!

i like your positioning of the 68 side marker lights in the stripe.
and your car is very nice as well.

Thanks,I cannot stand the 72 and up rectangular generic marker lights. They look like they came from Harbor Freight and belong on a utility trailer!

That list is more like a lot of the OK stuff to do.

Black rims are on my don't list and I've also never liked matte flat black paint jobs that look like the vehicle is sprayed in primer. Mainly because here in rust land that used to be a thing people used to do to their beaters. Same as aftermarket fender flares on trucks here usually means it has rotted out wheel wells.

I only ever had black wheels on one car ever,and that car was an A12 Superbee! I hate the clowns putting those stupid dog dish hubcaps on every Mopar you see now a days! Most of those cars didn't come with them,and the ones that did,had them removed in the first few days of ownership! I never remember anyone running them back in the day,especially on Chargers or E bodies!

The Hemi Daytona Charger that just sold on Friday at Mecum for $1,300.000 used to have a Chevy hoodscoop on it before it was restored!

How about the brake lights that flash on and off rapidly when the vehicle is stopping?

Yep thats a pointless one. People argue it's to get the attention of the person behind them. Distracting is more like it.
