Guilty Pleasures and Things I Hate

[Capt. Obvious]

I like chrome wheels
I prefer my windows untinted
I hate RS4 reps

What are some of your styling "guilty pleasures": things most people hate and will flame you for, but you like anyway?

Maybe you have a soft spot for neon and lambo doors?

[Kerschera4]

I hate black rims/blackout themes

[NightRoller USP]

CC!!!!


Screwed this all up......I like ambers over CC's is what i was shooting for

[NightRoller USP]

I hate chrome lips.....they look so ricey and trailer trash!!!

[JMRQuattro]

I also hate RS4 reps
I think HR3's look absolutely retarded
Not sure about this one but i like Lamin-x headlights

[MontrealAtNight]

fake sharkfin antenna

[Maverick]

carbon fiber hood because of its not so perfect fitment.
I don't care, I save weight, gas, and the world!!!

[JMRQuattro]

x2 on the chrome lip on black wheels.... EEEEWWWWW.

Sooo - looks like this turned into a "What I hate" thread more than a "What I secretly like" thread...

Yeah, you guys are getting it backwards.

We're looking for things you LIKE.

[Audi_Chick]

- I like RS4 reps
- I hate fishbowling
- Painted lowers are a must
- Unless it's a 3.0, the chrome trim around our grilles must be painted
- Badgeless grilles are a no-no (Quattro, A4, 1.8T etc. emblems must be debadged though)
- I like having amber corners
- I hate Boser hoods
- I only like black leather
- I'm a sucker for flat black/satin black
- I like roof racks
- I want an Avant!

[Ultra B6]

-I dislike chrome wheels on german cars esp Bmw's
-I like the tinted stealth look on most cars but done within moderation ( hate dark tint on light cars)
-I love the look and style of Carbon Fiber even if its for a style aspect again within moderation
- I like the look of amber when paired with HID
- I love the look of a slammed car ( ie yours)
- I like when wheels/ tires sit flush or slightly out of the wheel wells (poke) again within moderation
- I hate Graphics or any kind unless someone took the time to paint them on(airbrush)

From writing this list I realized that I like subtle additions done to a car that will be noticed if someone knows what there looking at.

[Kerschera4]

ha hate me but
-i think 19" RS4's are some of the best looking rims on b6's
-BBS LM's are overrated
-the chrome window trim on 3.0's looks good
-stretched tires make you look retarded
-i like 1-0 finger gap between tire/fender more than anything tucked

second on that, i'm a sucker for details.
i like amber corners
if neon wasn't illegal, i would consider putting it on my car

[vintagespin]

- roof racks (i can't explain it, but they just seem to look good on some cars.
- selective yellow fogs (do 2500k fog bulbs fall under this color? i don't want lamin-x)
- front windows tinted less than the back windows (again, i can't explain it, it just seems to look better than the uniform tint all around)
- thin, flat 5-spoke wheels (check out the Volvo Pegasus wheels, i would SO get them if they didn't have that stupid R engraved onto one of the spokes. IMHO they look the cleanest and simplest of all wheels. maybe if the spokes were a little thinner. but i love the flat front with no curvature or lip)

EDIT:
- wagons. avants. i dunno, there's just something about them. for a while back in high school i wanted the last generation subaru legacy/outback whatever it is wagon.

and i don't understand the draw of sideblades. i think they look good on the right cars but i can't understand what everybody loves about them

[zcrew]

i like loud exhausts

[italian a4 1032]

i love black wheels with chrome lips
bbs wheels are gay
i hate rims with huge lips
i like painted lowers
i hate chrome rims
i hate the stock b6 bumper, exhaust, and 4x4 suspension
i love the caractere and oetty kit
i love widebodys
and i hate ice set ups that take up the whole trunk and have monitors

[A6.S-line]

I like wagons (and not just Audi Avants). If you venture outside the Audi forums and into the real world, you'll surely realize how uncommon or even absurd that is...

[Ultra B6]

-front windows tinted less than the back windows (again, i can't explain it, it just seems to look better than the uniform tint all around)

Couldnt agree more... I HATE when tint is miss-matched

[kwimberly]

My guilty pleasure:

I like the smell of strawberry air freshener even though I make fun of other people that use it.

[vintagespin]

Couldnt agree more... I HATE when tint is miss-matched

no dude, lol, that's my guilty pleasure. i think a car looks good with a darker tint in the back windows than the front. except on coupes i think.

Um, I think vintagespin likes it mismatched.

[JMRQuattro]

i think he meant he likes it miss-matched. As in 5% rear windows, 20% front windows. I think he likes the fade to clear on the windshield as opposed to really dark straight to clear.

[SilverBullets]

I hate those wheels that are black and have a red lip on them.... really I have any wheels that aren't chrome, silver, titanium or black... and if they have any color on them that stray from those, they likely look like a piece of shit... I also HATE smoked tail lights... I mean how many Rob Dyrdeks are there in this world?

[MOFSTEEL]

Hate Rs4 Reps.
Also prefer windows untinted.
Like my amber corner lenses.
Keep my mods simple.

[agart]

I like interior neons. AS LONG AS you can't see the light bar itself. Also I like chrome in moderation.

[Charlescrs6]

I love carbon fiber
I hate chrome rims and chrome lip rims
I LOVE gunmetal rims
I love black out theme
I hate blue LED license plate bulbs
I dislike ALL rear bumpers except for USP and S4

I have an Avant


~I dislike the B6 A4 sedan
~I like fishbowls
~I'm on the fence about my RS4 wheels
~I like the 'sleeper' look
~I like the fat ass of an Avant S4 rear
~I heart the crackhead-like rings on my exhaust after running a tank of leaded race gas

[Sammy7]

Bondo and paint?

My guilty pleasures:

-wagons
-tan leather
-stock suspension height

My car is so dorky...

You don't like sedans?

after being on audizine, and being only 16, I found a love for avants. I really want one now.

Only sedan I like is the B5 S4

[QTC]

I don't like painted lowers on non-USP cars
I don't like tinted windows
I don't like bodykits
I don't like HID fogs
I don't like HID kits retrofitted in halogen lamps
I don't like huge engine upgrades on Tiptronic transmissions
I don't like CVT's
I don't like DIY CC, although CC'ed ecodes are ok
I don't like cars that are dumped on coilovers (i.e. tucked)

Ok, that felt good to vent, although I'm sure I pissed off a lot of people lol

[akarol]

- I like putting my finger in my butt and smelling it.

[Audi_Chick]

I have an Avant

Maybe I will see your Avant sometime soon because you do hang out with my friends

[Charlescrs6]

I like the B5 S4's as well. I guess that's why this thread is called guilty pleasures then.

I think that the B5 A4 is an ugly car from the front..

[absolutegtr]

I absolutely looove sleeper cars. Even better if it looks like a POS. Doesnt matter if its a Euro, Jap or Domestic. If you car looks shitty and/or stock but will just wipe the floor with just about any car, then.....

Must be quiet too

[teg2audi]

Likes -
USP front
RS4 reps
Amber corners

Dislikes -
Blacked out Tailights
Chrome lipped rims
Slammed suspension
Clear corners and blacked out grill on a non USP (just looks ricey to me)

[dougyfresh]

What we need to do is get a caravan up I95 when Jake comes through with his father's 400+awhp USP A4
