new trend? hanging little keychain dolls off rear bumper
 
so I noticed this trend started about 2 years ago. and now it is becoming big.

ppl are hanging little keychain sized dolls off their rear bumpers, usually attached to the rear tow hook or whatever.

what's the deal with this trend? is it JDM oriented, or from the SoCal/hellaflush scene?

What about putting eye lashes on your car?
I recently spotted a Fiat 500 and an IS250/350 with eye lashes... :failed:
I hope that's not the new trend.

I've seen the eye lash thing too, looks ridiculous.

I always wondered if they will wear out and fall off through weathering

"bulls balls", I forgot about those haha.

as for the "drift charms", it's interesting how I see them on all sorts of FWD cars. ;)

I think I might adopt this goofy trend. Muk Muk hanging off my rear bumper anyone? :D

orange7 06-11-2011 09:53 PM

Solo_D33A 06-11-2011 11:41 PM

Seems like every second truck in Alberta has one, lame

I'll be impressed when I see someone mount a set of bull horns as a hood ornament lol
