List the Ugliest/Stupidest mods

The other thread got me thinking and I figured why not. So what are some of the ugliest/stupidest mods you've ever done, seen done, or heard of being done to our cars? Of course pictures would greatly help, but if ya don't have 'em, a good description would suffice

Rice is having one of those heavy aluminum wings on a TL with 2 big ass mufflers, a non-functional hoodscoop, those sitckers on the side of the fenders to look like vents, a real ugly body kit mostlikely made for another car and those aftermarket LED taillights.

Ladies and Gentlemen, That's Rice.

To each is own though.

IMHO an exhaust other than the ATLP which adds 10hp, is a stupid mod. All it does is make your car sound meaner while adding a mere 2-3hp.

whether others agree or not is irrelevant. The topic at hand is for people to post what they believe to be the ugliest or stupidest mods done on our cars. It's not a requirement that it be the popular vote for someone to have an opinion on something

i saw a TL with a body kit duct taped on and a biggest fart can that could have been stuffed under there sideways. huge spoiler and cheap gansta rims from pep boys. i was ready to punch this person in the face - over and over and over. and had his suspension like bottomed out from all of the people and crap in his car. o and he had a NOS sticker. what a horrible thing to do to a TL. i wish i snapped a pic.

I dunno... to me there's nothing wrong with the M3 lip spoiler on the trunk. It looks perfectly fine and isn't ugly IMO, but it does look a little odd to me since the trunk already has that little lip at the top.

Now as a roof spoiler, a modded M3 lip looks pretty good IMO. It's not too pronounced like the Sarona (which I'm sitll trying to decide if I think is too big or not), but it does give a nice look to the rear. Plus it costs a HELLUVA lot less than the Sarona, which isn't a bad thing at all
