Mexicans.....

[nonovurbizniz]

Just a few points... not gunna bother with some long drawn out b.s. post... *edit*well apprently I can't avoid long b.s. posts*/edit*

a. Most "mexicans" HATE puerto ricans or any other hispanic people for that matter AND vice versus... the el salvadorians I used to work with considered it more of an insult to be called mexican than ANYTHING else... same goes for mexicans I used to know...

b. Most AMERICAN "puerto ricans" or otherwise hispanics seem to think there's some big "protect our latino brotheren" thing going on which ONLY exists in americanized latinos (again from my experience).

c. calling the thread "mexicans" is just lame dude... say hispanics or lowriders... around here finding ALL the muraled out lowriders are p.r.'s or el salvadorians... some dominicans but mostly p.r.'s... hardly ANY mexicans...

d. I have seen some of the UGLIEST cars in the world that lots of people LOVE... and I would NEVER EVER sit there and make fun of it... even that "ugly" civic someone posted up...

Hispanics and PLENTY OF OTHER RACES make cars in the same style... and if you don't like it fine... but I say... park your car next to theres and start talking about all the work YOU PERSONALLY have done to it and to what end... then ask them to do the same...

I think what you'll find is that most of those "lame" cars have THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS of hours of labor into them... and most of the stuff IS done VERY nicely... most of which is 1 off and WAY cooler than buying a 500 dollar exhaust and saying you've "modded" your car... Whether you like it or not there probobly isn't 1 "mexican" car out there that doesn't have TONS more work into it than you and WAY WAY more talent sitting behind the wheel too..

Not trying to bust on you but they do SERIOUS sh!t to there cars... not catalog shopping like most of the honda "tuners" I've met.

If I had to count the times I've seen TOTALLY different headlights or whatever part blended into another car BEAUTIFULLY by a "mexican" I'd be counting for a LONG LONG TIME... not to mention the amount of motor work they sometimes have in addition...

Sure it can go wrong and sure even when done emmaculately it won't be everyone's style... but you still have to appreciate the work...

I was at a VW meet and some hispanic dudes pulled in, in a WAY latino'd car... checkerboard paint/dash... BIG wing all on a buick... everyone was laughing and making fun... but I bet he puts in more hours on his p.o.s. car than ANY of them do on theirs...
