We only pray bling looks this silly in 15 years
The 1980's seem like a whole other world. Think what a time traveler with his teal green Escort GT adorned with hot pink neon accessories would say if he happened upon a 2005 Chrysler 300C all DUB'd out. Thumbing through a C&D from 1990 we stumbled upon this ad for the automotive accessory company Rally and their many bright wares and couldn't help but share. As far as the automotive taste police are concerned, all we can do is hope that the bling scene will look this ridiculous when reminiscing through back issues in 2020. Rally wasn't left behind, they follow the trends faithfully and now make billet shift knobs and under-dash neon lights. I'm sure there are a few chrome "spinner" hubcaps in their repertoire also.
