Graphics are cop-attractors.
If I notice your car, cops notice your car.

If you like it, though, go for it.-Bob

its your car, do what you want with it. its not like any of us are going to change your mind. i will tell you this, if you posted this question a couple years ago, you would have got constantly ragged on until you quit posting on this site, because this site used to be really anti-rice. the ricers complained that the fast cars always picked on them, so now we have to tolerate the slow cars that "look fast".

most people here would rather put their money into the motor, instead of graphics and body kits.

I can't lie, my brother used to make fun of me when I was in high school for putting graphics on my 3000... I must say that I've grown out of it Do what you want, but like what senor honda said, "Graphics are cop-attractors.
If I notice your car, cops notice your car."

Where have the good days gone, when I couldn't even talk about my V6 Firebird without getting assaulted...now people go on about all sorts of bullshit and we get yelled at when we try to help them realize how stupid they sound...

"What's wrong with graphics?"

and they are kinda highschool-ish, no grown ass man should have graphics. putting graphics on a car that cant perform, is like having a fine ass girlfriend who cant perform in bed, they're just for looks. i'd rather have an OK looking girl with big tits who will fuck my brains out, just like i'd rather have a car that can perform good as well.
