LOL this one always comes around every couple of years, I remember someone making the slogan "Tickford wings belong on Tickford cars"..hehe..nothing has changed.

It is ghey..really ghey.

Unless the car has had a heart transplant then its still whatever it originally was. Example, I have been having impure thoughts about this car for ages, and how freakin cool it would be with a 6.1L SRT Hemi and manual box behind it, but leave everything else stock (although do the brakes and some rims to clear, but try and find something old school like minilites etc).

Anyway, the only exterior mod I would do is a little SRT8 badge on the back...that I think would be acceptable.

But if you just slap some badges on because you have some wheels then thats a bit lame.

My last disclaimer will be that I am sure I put tickford wings on the sides of both my ED XR6 fakers. But they looked completely legit, and the badge actually looks nice. Still looking back there are some other mods I am not proud of that where "cool" at the time, blue interior inserts anyone?

Well three things have become apparent.

1) The majority of members don't think non FPVs should have FPV badges.
2) The quality of arguments has not improved over the years.
3) School holidays have begun.

Game over......
