Siento bente. Tunog siento bilis bente. Pinakamarami akong nakakasabay nito sa may Marcos Hiway pag gabi.

oo, grabe talaga yang si Marcos, puro ingay lang. HAHAHA

nope, not guilty at all. I pride mysef in keeping my ride as stock as possible.

Ha ha ha! Ano ba ang inspiration niyan? Saan siya nag originate? [emoji16][emoji2957]

Bossing, it is called a “drift charm” and it is popular in Japan. Pero funny yan kung lagay-lagay ka nyan on a FWD vehicle at wala din alam sa drifting yung driver.

Dami ganyan kahit saan. Dito pa lang sa kapitbahay ko eh. Tinanong ko nga kung gaano kabilis yan. Sinagot ako na takot sya mabilis magmaneho. Wahahaha

Add tilting plate mounts. What other function do these have save for making the plates harder to read?

IIRC those are supposed to be spring loaded, so that at higher speeds the plate is tilted allowing more air to flow into your radiator or intercooler. At lower speed the spring returns the plate to vertical/90°.

I suppose making the plate harder to read, especially by a high-mounted speed camera when you're driving fast is also intentional, then in town hindi ka masita because it returns to a normal orientation.

Problem is the local fakers who copied it forgot the springs, so it's just tilted all the time.

I've yet to see spring loaded ones locally. So far, all are tilted down in traffic hehe. And for most of these cars, I doubt any significant aero/airflow benefits are gained. I think mostly for porma/iwas huli lang talaga.

Attachment 40472

As featured in autodeal.com, here they are:

1. Dark-tinted lights
2. Flashing brake lights
3. Fake vents and scoops
4. "Tuning chips"
5. "Turbo" whistle

Guilty or not guilty?

How do you plead?

may nakasabay ako sa Alabang Westgate na blue na Hyundai Elantra yung diesel engine tapos kumpleto sya from 1 to 5 may dagdag pa na gigantic rear wing tapos lug nuts na pointed na kulay metallic pink. Hayup yung tunog ng exhaust e parang may 10 blowoff valve dahil sa whistle nya.

haha naalala ko tito ko. naka ganyan with matching sipol muffler! pero to think naka 2001 na bmw z3 3.0 siya. hardly the first car you would think that needs those.

baka senior thing nya iyon. hehe. to his credit pinalitan na niya ng super sprint yung tambutso pero the fake red caliper cover remains! hehe
