Am I The Only One Who Has This Problem With Tuners?

Most if not all of the majors tuners who frequent this board have had their pictures posted of them at work, in the public, and at Viper events. Why is it that they have to dress like the fucking homeless?

Do you have any idea at all how much money they make on a twin turbo system? Don't you think that would support the purchase of a shirt with real buttons on it, pants that cover the claves and a pair of fucking shoes that look like they weren't found at a flea market?

I think it's down right disrespectful of their customers for them to dress like the guy who sweeps up at the local pool hall. How much pride are they taking in the neatness of their work if they don't care about how they are perceived by the public?

Is it possible that this distain for self image carries over to their personal hygiene? ARGHHHH!

Maybe if more of us were to voice our concerns in this area it could make a difference. Don't any of you have a problem handing a check for 50 large over to a slob who looks like Nick Nolte in his mug shot?

I think maybe a sport shirt with their logo over the pocket, a pair of beige docker's and steel toed penny loafers would be a minimum. Let's do this together as Viper Nation and make those who follow behind us proud!

I don't care how they look as long as they deliver what they promised me in a reasonable length of time.

Well that fucking sucks Kenny. I was counting on you leading up the coordination committee on fashion guidelines, but I do see your point. Me I want both out of my tuner. Would you consider heading up the big and tall impact study?

If this catches on we might be able to get a group buy going on some Dockers.

IMPORTIMAGE, THE GUY AT TUNE 'N' LUBE IN THE PIT DRESSES BETTER THAN OUR VIPER TUNERS.

Can anyone post a picture of a well known tuner in a shirt that one wouldn't discard as too fucked up to use to clean the brake dust off one's HRE's?

Who gives a fuck what they look like! The only thing that matters is that they are honest and can deliver what is promised. I know guys who have millions and hundreds of millions and you would never know it by looking at how they dress. Now they may dress better when doing business, but they also are not out in the shop wrenching on cars either. I envy the guy who can make $$$ doing something they love and dressing how they want to.

OK, I respect your opinion but how about the hygiene issue, are you OK with whatever they want to do in that area too?

I'm not using Kenny as the standard here, but I reckon more than one of our tuner's would have been better dressed wearing that snappy wildlife sweatshirt at their wedding.

Honestly I am never up that close to my tuner to be smelling his nutz or breath. Maybe you should back off a little from your tuner, unless you guys are like that. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

The answer to your question is:

YES, you are the only one that has a problem with how Viper Tuners dress.
