Chat about all things Bonneville (and related cars). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.
In regard to paper/cardboard comment: The guy who took the pics (guy in the link) wanted me to post saying:
"Coldscrip, I followed your link. Let those guys on your other forum know that those pics were taken at 75mph on the highway. Those things were not flaping around. Metal. Welded on. Then painted."

This has to be a joke, or someone just messing around. Paper hood scoops and construction paper headlight covers.....

Taken from one of the guys on the StarQuest forum when he read our comments here:

honestly it doesn't look THAT bad, it just looks like the owner went overborad. if he turned down the ridiculous, it'd actually look pretty sweet.
Umm, no. That thing is COMPLETELY unacceptable. It looks like a ten year old's drawing from study hall. A ten year old who grew up on Power Rangers and meth. It's awful.
