you know what i hate. people who are always pessimists. Why does a thread in which they might not care about have to be a dumb thread? If you don't care about it and it seems dumb to you, don't comment only on how dumb this thread is.
who knows, maybe some kids just getting into the scene saw this thread and rethought putting hood pins into their car. Maybe they want to have a nice (not rice) looking car and thought it would be an upgrade. Now they know that most people looking at the car may think it is a ricey upgrade.
(N/A TunersCivic- in no way am i saying you had no business posting, because you did provide a solution to a problem you thought you saw. basically i am trying to point that in no way is this post directed at you)
