"Classic Not Plastic" stickers.

Especially on Dunnydores.

If its classic,people know.

If its plastic,people know that as well.

+1 for highback seats in early Holdens.They look SHIT!

+1 for 12 slotters on Holdens.Its a sin against humankind.

Silver painted alloy rims with no dish on early Holdens.Always looks crap.

Auto salon type cars.(with multiple televisions,fishtanks,that sort of crap).Dont these guys realise they are building panelvans 30 years to late?

DRIFT TOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!! wtf is the point???

black bonnets on jap cars - looks unfinished and pov

the drift look wheels and tyres combo where the tyre is so low in profile and not wide enough for the rim that its stretched super thin over the rim.

also hate 10,000rpm tachos in std V6 commos.

And as above stickers advertising shops where they havent been. I only have 2 on my rear window for my exhaust and my wheels and tyres (cause they were both great jobs and great deals)

I hate drivers who think it is cool to "upgrade" their headlights with brighter globes only to dazzle oncoming traffic in the process.

People who put monaro body parts on commies. lights, bonnets, etc.

People who drive auto's like manuals, just get a manual if you want to drive manual - talking about street driven daily's.

I just hate when people say they have "done up" their cars and the only thing they have done is bolted some fibreglass to it, applied a sticker and exhaust

I have stickers on my car! I have a ANDRA one, a 'Torana, when your hot your hot' one, an '05' one and a peter brock signature sticker. I think there cool lol.

I hate carbon fibre hoods (real or fake, they both look shithouse)
Also people who enter shitboxes in car shows. Like little civics with a paintjob, or a stock commodore that has a set of rims on it.

i have a sports exhaust system on the vt but at least i have other engine mods and a dyno sheet to prove it lol and the whole monaro thing annoys me i'll allow lights but definitely not bonnets especially on a v6 maybe an ss but not a v6

seems everyone is picking on the vt/vx commodore :(

V2 series II and III bonnets, especially on VT, VU and VX 4 doors and utes. Remind me so much of another my other pet hates (see below).

XB and XC Falcons.

Riced up pieces junk.

Perhaps it's a matter of personal taste, but i think the Monaro headlights in the VT looks sweet!
My son has a set on his, it's surprising the difference a set of headlights makes.

Yeah I agree Col. If I was forced to own a VT/VX then the first thing I'd do is put the Monaro headlights on it.

I also love the skinny tyres on wide wheels thing (not that you really get to see that much over here), along with most other jap trends. I don't even really mind the drift toys lol. It just shows that some car enthusiasts don't take themselves as seriously as we seem to

Another thing I hate, is a car that should not be heard (for example a plastic auto four banger), being fitted with a loud exhaust. If you have a good sounding car, sure, you wanna show off the sound. That makes sense, even if it does annoy the residents you drive past. Why the f*ck would you want to advertise the smooth drone that your clearly un-cammed Hyundai Excel has?

People who just keep "tacking" on more crap and thinking it looks good... The part hanging on the shelf may look funky, but put it on your car and it just looks f*cking shithouse!!!! Can't people envisage what something might look like on there car, when they see it on the shelf!

Those bloody ' mini truck ' utes that get around... its not a TRUCK ITS A BLOODY UTE!!! Its meant to carry things!! Having the back of it dragging along the ground making sparks is not cool... it makes you a tool!

Cars that never get driven.. You know who you are.

People who leave cars outside rusting away and when someone offers to buy it they say ' oh nah i'm going to restore it one day ' WELL BLOODY HURRY UP COZ THERE AINT MUCH LEFT!!!

People who do burnouts and drive like an idiot then complain when they get a ticket for it...

I have to agree with the 12 slotter comments

Torana's with aftermarket chrome hubcaps... I can't even start to tell you whats wrong with that!
