What kind of abominations have you seen on the road lately? This one was captured by my brother. By the way, the maple leaf sticker means beginner driver (under 2 years of experience).

This reminds me of one more car that has been roaming the city lately: a Volvo C70 with a huge wing and a hood scoop. This personally hurts me because I own a C70.

Every so often I see an early Kia Sorento with a BMW kidney grille swap thing and BMW badges. It’s slightly shocking how much it looks like a gen-1 X5.

When I worked in the road-shop at Circuit City (way back), this guy used to come in with literally every pep-boys cosmetic add on you could get. To top it all off he had cut a floor mat into some weird shape and glued it to the center of the hood! The car, a saturn sl1.

I’ve seen an Acura w/ a full E36 front swap. In the rearview mirror, it’s very convincing.

Did he have an “arm-sticking-through-door-panel” sticker?

I used to autocross my Miata with the local BMW club chapter a lot. I put an ///M badge on my daily driver Saturn SL2, just to piss them off.

My friend has his F150 done up with Mexican Lobo badging and bmw kidney grilles. He had the grilles laying around from a BMW he’d sold.

Question: What happens if the person does not use a vehicle registered to them, do they still need a sticker? The first vehicle I’ve had registered to me was well after the 2-year mark, as well as most of my friends, but they were “ours”. I’m unsure on what this actually accomplishes, or what the law is supposed to be, and am curious on how it works.

Yes, absolutely. It is an obligation for the driver, regardless of the car. Nowadays we just use magnetic stickers, which is pretty neat. This is for Lithuania though, might vary elsewhere.
