Default For those of you yearning for bolt-ons

Someday, I will probably see a Crossfire with big giant chrome wheels, and that will make me want to puke.

This is just my opinion, and I HOPE that the majority if Crossfire owners would agree, WE DO NOT WANT to see aftermarket bolt-ons on our cars. It is refreshing for me to see that you can't "trick-out" the Crossfire. Leave the "tricking-out" to other cars like the Eclipses, Integras, Civics, Supras, TTs, 350zs, etc.....

No big giant chrome wheels, no loud farty sounding mufflers, no crazy stripes, strange stick-on shapes, lettering, or other assorted graphics. No neon lights, ground effect kits, or "slamming it". No "double sided sticky tape" accessories.

All of this new pop-culture sort of stuff applied to car bolt-ons makes my stomach turn.

I hope it never happens to the Crossfire.

No bad feelings intended towards aftermarket bolt-on yearners, but I think most Crossfire owners are of an older and more mature crowd, and the bolts-on you so desire will hopefully never materialize.

I feel that all of that sort of stuff can dilute the value of ownership of a car, especially if it happens to the Crossfire.

I saw a 350z recently with a big giant wing, big giant chrome wheels, and a ground effects package on it. Y-U-C-K. Cheesy and embarrassingly adolescent. Actually not a surprise since the owner looked very young.

Again, I hope it NEVER happens to the Crossfire.

Ok, I'm done!
