Yeah, right.  Did you ever see the movie "Body Parts"?  They were using body
parts from convicted killers, etc., to replace limbs on other people or
something, and the limbs made their sane new owners do insane things, such
as turn into serial killers.  Before you know it, you'll have clear
taillights and a picnic table for a spoiler.  Then you'll get some
extra-wide spoked rims and ultra-low profile tires, and put them on spacers
so they are completely out from under the fenders.  The ricing is
inevitable.  8-)
