Shaved boots? Love them or hate them?

[Tha_INS]

I personally think the idea is stupid really I mean shaving of some locks does'nt affect the look of the car too much but shaving the whole number plate area from a car just makes it look odd in my opinion...

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

G.ay.


Lots of Mirage's and Lancers down here with the whole boot rounded off,
and they all look g.ay

G.ay.

My thoughts exactly i wonder who voted that they liked it lol

Depends I guess, shaving the lock off will make it look cleaner.

But shaving the plate out, then bolting it back on at an angle is gay so I voted gay

They NEVER look normal. They NEVER follow the natural lines of the car/ute/wagon/whatever it's done on.

They seem to always make the back of the car look rounded - and not in a nice way....

... i wonder who voted that they liked it lol

'Body Filler' company's?

But shaved boots look fully sick boe.. especially when the number plate is then "frenched" in the rear bumper so that its at a funny angle... At least the owners are being considerate of all those people with one leg longer than the other

id rather spend the money on performance mods any day.

[trd_chik]

bit pointless in my opinion

[20v_rollaboy]

While I don't like that evo posted above, and would rather spend $$$ on go fast parts any day, I think on some cars it doesn't look to bad >>

[Mad Murphy]

Well it's one sure-fire way to ruin the resale value of your car. I think it looks tacky, I guess it's cool if you wear your hat at a silly angle and live in Linwood…

That starlet doesn't look 100% horrible (though standard still looks better), I think because it follows the 'natural' line of the car, it's just taken off the garnish.

Then there are those kromez....

[ryanfels]

I voted no but i still prefer the bumperless look of my old ke70 wagon

I like that starlet. And I like de-badged.

But I cant stand the evos/etc that have number plates recessed on a G-angle lol

While I was out just now:



Not really shaved - but still looks pretty average (even though they look like sh*t to start with haha)

woah just realized how dark that photo is
