How am I being an internet tough guy? I never said I could kick all your asses, or that you all were pussies for painting your roofs black. I simply stated my opinion that I think it looks like ***** and now everyone is all butt hurt because not everybody in the world thinks their style is cool. I'm sure a lot of you would not like my car, probably because it just has a boring gray roof and boring gray everything else and only 18" wheels. When people post things in a public forum should you not expect someone to not like what you post? Or are you all so likeable that you have never had anybody disagree with what you say/do, or maybe you just ban everyone that does.

I've seen g's at the track, and they were running just as fast as most of the other cars, maybe it's not your car that is slow but the person behind the wheel. Some other "functional" mods that you could do to your car is to go to a driving school then maybe you'd say "hmm, I guess I could use with more brakes, now that I have 300lbs worth of rims on my hubs."

i'm simply trying to understand why you seem to think painting our roofs black is a waste for us.

it's our cars, so we do it our way.

i've come to the point where i've realized there isn't much more i can do without going f/i to make my car faster. as a result, i'm doing to my car what i think looks nice - there, it serves a function (making me happy).

if you don't like to fix up your car cosmetically, or don't have the same tastes, that's fine. but there's no reason to tell us we are wasting our money with our black/carbon fiber roofs.

what's fast is subjective.

hey, maybe the other cars were just as slow as ours are.

not everyone buys a car for the same reason. you don't seem to understand that.

some people buy cars to make them go-fast. others like to mod their cars cosmetically only. seeing how it's fairly expensive to make our cars what i think is fast, i chose the less expensive route and am doing what i think looks good.

oh hey - what a concept, eh? my car, my money, my taste, my decisions. funny how the world works, huh?

most people here know that if they wanted a fast car, they should have gotten something else. most people got the car for its looks, but still track it for fun.

I never once said you were wasting your money, I just said I didn't think it looked good. I agree that everyone should do to their car what they want to, but they should also be prepared for the fact that someone may not think what they did was nice/cool/ill/sick/rad/bodacious etc.

saying a black roof isn't functional is saying it was a waste of money. maybe it wouldn't serve a function for your purposes, but to say that it serves no function at all is just ignorant.

i know a lot of people don't like my black roof and grille, i accept that. in fact, i'm happy about that. the more people that hate my car, the less people that will have the same mods that i do.
