Why do people hang stuffed animals from their bumpers??? - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

From the back bumper, to me, is annoying enough, but I saw a white CR-Z today with a front bumper tow hook with a big spider man doll on it. Is this a cool thing to do or something?

^ Nope.. Doesn't fall into the cool category in-as-much-as a modification is concerned. But, was probably a cheap mod.. Could possibly provide some protection in a front end collision?? I mean the spidey suit and all??

That wasn't a doll - you know how bad the rear-ward visibility is in the CR-Z.
Well, sorry guys - no more Spidey sequels!

It's really just personal choice. It makes your car easier to recognize if your car is a popular model. Mostly I don't think it's considered as cool.
However, this one I do.

Everyone I know who does it, are also very ricey...so I always corralted the 2 together as a rice thing to do, but now a days I am seeing more and more people do it who arent even into cars so I think its just something thats being caught on and I let the rice part of it drop. I saw one the other day of Po...the panda from Kung Fu Panda...it was so dirty you couldnt see the white on it.

hahaha that Woody one is Awesome for the "LOL" factor. but ya i agree people just wanting to be different, just like ricers, but that is the only way they can think how.

I've never noticed one before. If I start noticing them now and start having nightmares, I know who to blame.

You could use the Spidey "Sense" to help avoid front end impacts. In the rear It might even be better then a Back up camera

My spidey senses are tingleing. No dear your just have to go Pee lol

I don't understand it, but I'm willing to embrace it.

What do you think of a line of Pruis badges hanging from the bumper?
