Talking Faux-lding Tow Hooks OMG :D :D :D

OMG - absolutely one of funniest things I've ever seen on fleabay:



$4.73 - Faux-lding Tow Hook

$14.07 - A more expensive Faux-lding Tow Hook


$61.84 - Deluxe 10pc set of Faux-lding Tow Hooks
In case you want to put one on EVERY panel of a Boxster - Bwahahah!!!

Cannot believe someone took time to even think of let alone people actually bought!?!?

Even JC Whitney would be embarrassed to sell such an item

What absolutely ridiculous car items have you found on fleabay?

In their defense:

Well, it is plastic, so you can save weight over a steel or aluminum tow hook.

For the money, you really can't beat these classic 987 magnetic side vent decals.
Unfortunately, they don't seem to be on eBay anymore.

One of the other forums I check out from time to time has a thread "cars ruined by bad taste" Here's one of my contributions. It's a BMW that someone El Camino'd.
