If someone's that hard on their luck, maybe they shouldn't be spending their money on car mods at all? Should I respect plastic clip-on Walmart rims because some people are poor? I don't get it.
I'd rather have nothing at all than something that fails miserably at being what I want it to be.
As for function over form.. I don't think anyone is hating on professional drivers that mod to make a living, or even a causal track hobbyist. There's a reason behind that ugly. Ugly for performance is fine, what we have trouble grasping is destroying function for ridiculous aesthetics that only a tiny community will appreciate and the rest will mock. What's even more difficult is when it's their only car and it can barely get them from A to B.
