I'm no pussy, if it was my car I'd snatch that bonnet off of there in a flat minute.

The fingerprint winning out in committee, I guess the scratch and sniff hood option will have to wait until next year.

Prints of various animals splattered on the hood?

It's a different idea of customization. More for the cup holder crowd.
Yer talking to a rouge bunch of hardy scoundrels. $8k is a new car to myself.

I do like the idea of making a product 'your own' though.
Something like that might catch on eventually. Who knows.
I personally dallied with the idea of an Urushi (japanese black lacquer) wood dash cover with interior trim at some point. Very unique and would be very expensive.

My fingerprints are already all over my car...

Whoever pays for this option deserves to be laughed and pointed at, loudly and in public.

why not paint your name on your car. then you can only sell it to people named after you. that might make the value go up

yeah, a finger print is a "good" idea

I think they’re intending this for people that actually intend to keep their cars - not worry about resale value. That said I don’t really get it either...

Geronimo '74 02-26-2020 03:56 AM

I guess that every nerd with a decent scanner and a vinyl cutter can make these, no?
(ok, it's not painted and clearcoated then, but OTOH, it is removable)

Must be nice having to show your finger to everybody to prove it really is based on your actual fingerprint....
I reckon that would annoy me really quick, especially if then you also have to defend your decision to pay for such BS...
:rolleyes:

So it is not even a correct image of the actual fingerprint?

I'm guessing "processing" means modifying so it is not a perfect match anymore (so it can not be mis-used in any way)

dude must have huge hands?
