Car modification is a form of art, and you know that most of the artists go entirely unnoticed and unacknowledged.

We kind of predict the same fate for these “artists.” But, of course, there is always a possibility that they might have a bender fender with some conceptual art critic, and that they will love their masterpiece and make them famous.

Maybe that’s their plan. Sounds ridiculous?

Ridiculous like these cars?

That’s one way to make a car impossible to ignore.
