i think the fundamental purpose of a visual "mod" on a vehicle is to get others' attention. whether we find it appealing or not, it's apparent that a nike swoosh or any other visual mod on someone's car has a higher chance of getting our attention than one that is bone stock. i like to call it the "look at me" syndrome. you can find a lot of these types of people dressing, doing their hair, and carrying themselves in ways just to draw attention to themselves. some like to think that they are merely being cool or expressing themselves, but i think deep inside, they have the unquenchable desire to be noticed for whatever reasons.

Originally posted by steve c You see quite a few in Denver, always driven by Mexicans. I assume that it is some manner of a gang sign. All I could find in the press: Gold capped teeth with swooshes and swoosh tattooes are not just the stuff of gang members and Nike employees anymore. Brett Bryan, manager of BodyGraphics Tattoo in South Windsor, says someone asks for a Nike swoosh about every other month. His tattoo artists have rendered black swooshes, multicolored swooshes, swooshes with "Just do it," and "Just do it" alone. Damn I thought just Mexicans down here have bad taste in cars. Must be a mexican thing to put dumb stickers, over or under-sized cheap-ass wheels, stupid body kits poser mobiles. Sam |
