Tire bulge is but one of the many offenses on this thing. Shift knob->ghey, Boost gauge with no supercharger -> ghey, Narrowband Air/Fuel -> super ghey, listing your engine as a 4.06->proof read idiot, Stick on mirrors ontop of your mirrors -> ghey, Cobra clones-> ghey and the list goes on and on.
I'm having a bad day, but that felt good. Sorry if it's anybody's car on here. Sorry for you, not for what I said.
