Seriously, you aren't getting the point. You don't have to have £100000 in the bank to decide that a 16 year old CRX, with a BMW front end and a dodgy interior is in any way good. I could have £10 in the bank and think the same.
Anyway, I think you'll find that some of them do say it to the owner. Then the owner gets in a hissy, and rather than having a reasonable discussion, decides that the best recourse is to get into a fight over it.
The world would be a boring place if we all liked the same thing wouldn't it. I can remember this website 8 years ago, when people all used to cream themselves over a Combat kitted Corsa!

Not really bullying is it. At the end of the day, people will always have different opinions and won't always agree on everything. If you do something like that CRX, you have to expect bad comments, along with the good.

Isn't that bad tbh. The rear arches/ skirts and spoiler don't suit it IMO

BB is 99% full of very very sad pathetic people
"So what hobbies do you have?"
"Oh I like to drive around and take photos of peoples cars, then post them on the internet for my internet friends to comment on how thick they are, how they live on a council estate and are on the dole"
Or, the classic "I spend my time searching eBay for cars, then post them on the internet for my internet friends to comment on how thick they are, how they live on a council estate and are on the dole"
waste of space

that cars not bad, a little bit of work and it could look good, some more subtle alloys. matching alloys, a more subtle spoiler and finished in black too.
O I also like how the driver wont be able to see all the guages as some on the passengers side point out towars the window!!

Think most of us agree that barryboys is full of assholes then lol... At the end of the day, whatever someone does to their car, it's theirs! Therefore they can do what they like if it looks good to them... Also, any car that is modified has had alot of time and effort gone into it... If my car got put on there I'd be signing up straight away to tell Barry Narry what the f**k I thought of him! lol

No, there is a point to barryboys. Whatever you do to your car IS yours, but in the same way, whatever opinion someone else has on your car is THEIRS. I like barryboys, its a blast from time to time...
What I think everyone has a problem with however, is the way they act. It's all well and good finding a car that you think is amusing, but then posting "Found this Shitreon Paxo on a council estate. Hope his mum fucking dies in a helicoptor crash for producing offspring like him" is just toffee-nosed twatness and uncalled for. They all act like they're upper class, and this gives them the right to behave like cunts. Either way, I just open the topic to see the car, rather then read the comments of yorkshire golf club members.

Seriously. Do you not think that there is a chance that people do sometimes stumble upon these cars by accident. I'll admit that one or two probably do go around looking for the cars, but the vast majority are just accidental finds. And uploading 3 or 4 pictures isn't going to take long, as is doing a DVLA check to see what engine it actually has.
CJ - The 'Barrys' are the people that have done stupid things to the cars, not the actual forum members. And feel free to sign up, you wouldn't be the first to attempt to defend your car.

If a car is posted which they think shouldn't have been, they usually say. If a car has just got alloys and one or two small things, generally, it won't be posted.

I think Barry boys is great. They just say what most of the general public think, when they see some spazzed up Saxo or Corsa. I know of several members of CS that are active members on there too, including myself.
Couldnt agree more.
Makes me laugh the amount of people who post up shoddy cars off ebay/pistonheads etc on here and diss them and they find it ok to diss other peoples cars.
But when a corsasport members car is posted on there,all hell breaks lose
Barryboys is probably the funniest site on the net,problem with people of today is they take everything on the net so serious,yet its funny to read when they retaliate on there

Why an EK9 front end? What advantages does it offer over a normal EK Civic front end? Also, why an EK front end at all, considering that the CRX is closer to an EG than an EK.

Why does there have to be rules when you're modifying?
