because it's something different. i could give a fuck about JDM. i want someone to say "oh wow, thats different"

why do people paint their wheels green?
why do people modify cars/ trucks at all?

because they want something different.

no i wasnt knocking it.... youre not the only person that i know that has green wheels... i know someone that painted theirs "takata green" just for the hell of it.....


but how does the conversion negatively change the backbone of the car.... no frame cutting etc.... has to be done right?

I can understand show cars having something different for the judges...but daily drivers??? How much does the shit cost??? I could think of tons of other things I'd rather spend my money on.

Oh well...it's your car...do whatever you want
