When Vehicles Go Bad: Ten Mods Gone Horribly Wrong
Do you remember learning to ride a bike? You probably fell a lot, I know I did. Every joyful moment of forward momentum under your own power was marred with at least one session of scraped knees and bloodied elbows. It’s a harsh lesson when you’re young, but an important one: skills take time, and often pain, to gain. Modifying a car is the same. For every amazing project we cover, there are countless ones that go horrendously sideways, sometimes literally. Whether that’s due to a lack of experience on the builder’s part, shoddy craftsmanship, poor choice of car or parts, zero taste, or any number of other reasons, the result is the same. A lot of money spent, with bugger all to show for it save for some ugly piece of trash. In this article, we’re going to look at ten car mods that have either been done badly or should never have been done at all.
