I have said before on other threads if you want to modify a vehicle outside norms you should either have an engineer's certification of suitability or keep it off the public highways.

In the case of the 'art work' on the previous page, I would consider putting that in an art gallery a public service. I tend not to go to art galleries.

I suppose the whole trend might be seen as a reaction to the capability of modern cars and the small amount of that capability needed to negotiate public streets. You can mess things up by an incredible amount and still have a functioning vehicle.

Is it any different from people who modify their street vehicles so they will perform better on a race track but never take them there?

Sigh
