As far as "hellaflush is concerned I could take it or leave it. To me It's a matter is what type of car your building. The "hellaflush" thing is just as bad as the "Everybody has to have 400whp on their street DD car"
Function doesn't always have to come over form if you don't give a fuck about going 70 hard into a tight corner. There are fast car, and there are cars people drive and want to have them visual appealing, what is so wrong about that?
As much as I hate VW's..they are always ahead of us Honda owners. VW owners understand there are different types of cars, some are "hellafast" and some are "hellaflush"
It's so ignorant to say that somebody's car is gay, or isn't as good as yours because its lowered and has camber. Most people with big hp numbers never even come close to taking full advantage of their 400whp eg.
We are comparing apples to oranges here and it's time everybody realized it. there CAN be different types of cars, get used to it. The clean "sleeper" look with work/spoon/racing hart wheels and sick oem mudflaps is just as much of a fad as euro tail lights and body kits were in the 90's.
Actual using the term fad to describe it is actually a poor choice of words because it's not so much of a fad but more of a developing style. Cars are always changing and people are always learning to like new things, just because you are unable to see someones point of view don't be ignorant.
EDIT: Just to get things straight, I actually DO NOT own a "Hellaflush" ride.Generally I don't even like how most of them look. I just don't like the see them get hated on by the self-proclaimed JDM forum police because they don't find the need to have the ability to corner like on rails. Some people like it "low and slow".
