FJ abuse! When will the horror end?

[Blue Cayouse]

Okay it's been several months now and FJ's are now being modded out. What is the worse you have seen besides the 1/2 Hummer decals?

I received a email today from my T@B trailer forum. If you ever seen the T@B is is a sweet little teardrop shape european trailer. So this person not only wishes to diamondplate the front of this great looking trailer but also put those tacky diamondplate truck running boards on his new FJ.

I directed him to this forum to check out the vendor's running boards. Question is should we give out "Bad Mod" "Good Mod" tickets to people?
I'm thinking of printing up business cards with the forum site and placing them on the windshields of parked FJ's. Let them know there are more places to get accessories then chain tire shops.

That's Baaaaaaadd....isn't that just warm and cozy. I didn't realize the Gauge Cluster and the rearview mirror got that cold and hard too the touch.

Sheep = the new leather.

I think it is a little too self righteous for a select few to tell someone else their mod's are bad, what does it matter, it does not affect my FJ's value or the value I derive from my vehicle. I can't understand why anyone would want to put down someone based on their likes dislikes, this is still a free country last time I checked. I have been visiting this forum since Nov 05, it started out great with anticipated speculation on when the FJ would be available, what options would be available, through the horror stories of waiting for delivery, onto helpful advice for new owners. Now I think this forum is monopolized by elitist members who put down anything different than what they believe is the "correct" way to display vehicle pride.

Nicely put.

Okay? But the sheepskin person should still be turned in to PETA. Is there a group for ethical treatment of FJ's?

And yes it is a free country and everyone is entitled to their opinions and bad or good taste. This is just a forum for people to pass time (and judgement). Try not to take things too seriously.

The comment that someone left at the bottom of that sheepskin link is priceless.
