As a new member to the forum, I’ve taken time to look around the different threads and one area really fascinates me - Accessories. At this point I would like to say, please do not take this a criticism of any sort it just my curiosity at what makes individuals’ tick.
I am pondering why individuals take a perfectly good looking car, inside and out, and modify it to the point where it becomes something else? I’m not talking about renovating an old car as a hobby or building a custom hot rod etc.
Additionally, I can understand fitting accessories that: protect the vehicle, increase safety and help with storage etc. But beyond that, what is it all about? Why do people go to extraordinary lengths to turn an elegant, sophisticated vehicle into something it’s not?
What is the mind-set and/or thinking behind it?
Too reiterate this is not a criticism and I fully understand that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
