We've seen some pretty crappy DIY craftsmanship before, but these examples take the cake. What's amazing is these DIY'ers know how to post on the internet, but not how to research. EPIC FAIL.

No explanation needed.


We're sure that the majority of these screwballs know what they're doing by now, since it's highly likely that they've completely ruined the vehicles that they've installed these welding nightmares to. Hey Murilee! You listening? Try and get all these guys set up on a team for the 24 Hours of LeMons! Can you see the golden safety cage and welded frame too?. I've got to go wash my eyes out with 15 gallon drum of Methylene Chloride Industrial Paint Stripper now, so feel free to post more disastrous results that you've come across in the comments below.

whoever put the word FAIL on all those photos needs a pitchfork to the face

Plastic bin?

I love the "mufflercharger"

I saw one (can't find the pic) of a N/A Honda with a FMIC with a pod filter on one end. lol.

this made me LOL so much...thanks for making my day and LMAO at the charger mufflers too. talk about saving costs haha

haha...only in America would apply to most of those pics I would say :)

The footwear sums it up.
Why bother making a crappy manifold when you can buy a factory Toyota one to suit 3TG Turbo for like $150?
