For those that have the mustache decorating the front bonnet, hows about a fury one?

Dumbest. Idea. Ever. (aside from Carlashes)

 

Hipsters, not really a MINI thing...

 

One of our local autocrossers has a bright green one on his Fit. Its amusing.

 

Please put it away.

 

Naw.....

 

I think I'll just black out the top of my gill trim and call it a pencil thin mustache. I could do some cruisin' too.

 

I see them every day. I guess the rest of you don't live in a city where Lyft operates.

IMHO it looks like something a child would do. (In other words, it looks terrible.) And I'd wonder what it would do to the cooling system.

 

.......i can only imagine how gross that thing would turn out after a few hours of driving around, that looks like a big mop for bugs and road grime to collect in.

 

Like my wife always says....it don't take all kinds there just are! This is Worst than the stupid eyelashes.

 

No.

 

Most here don't think it's the MINI way, but when I was on the west coast, many MINI drivers had the sticker carstache. IMO, it's a cool thing but not many cars can pull off the look. With that said, stay away from the furry ones.

 

If you're a clown, you want to drive a clown car.

 

Well, I'm out here and I don't think I've seen a sticker carstache, or they just never caught my attention.

The pink furry ones belong to the Lyft ride service (an alternative to taxis) and easily seen around San Francisco and a few other cities. They do look goofy but you have to admit that it is a distinctive and attention-getting marque for the Lyft brand.

 

You probably didn't see them, they are pretty small lol. But keep your eyes peeled, they are a lot out there. The east coast isn't too fond of them though, I've seen a couple in a Michigan and a few in a Ohio.

Now the furry pink ones I saw a lot on SF, a lot of VWs had them on, but they were girls lol.

 

Couldn't that cause overheating?

 

Maybe if I was Adam Morrison in my college days....maaaaayyyybbbeeee.......

 

Very unlikely to. The grille openings are generally more for style than because they need the inlet area. The cars are also designed for absolute worst-case; e.g. pulling the max load up a long hill in the desert at 120F ambient. For average day-to-day driving, a naturally-aspirated vehicle probably doesn't need more than 25% of its grille open.
