Look nothing like a "proper" flame and a tad sad. That said I bet there's been times we've all wished we had one to melt the ABS bumper on the transit sat up our ***!

I voted for them. Ive never suffered any physical or mental affects of other people having flamer kits. I think there a bit different thats all.
Can't see why people get so aggresive and silly about them?

People don't like them because:
It's pure novaboy Chav
It's a tacky bolt on accessory (see Halfrauds ripseed counter) that has no purpose to a car except purely for looks.
It's widely accepted that people who try to seek attention or turn heads are trying to make up for something lacking in some other department.
Its something spotty kids have wet dreams over (see novaboy). Therefore immature.
Grow up FFS and spend your money on car mods that increases performance which sometimes makes flames on it's own accord - wanted or not

Mate has one on his Scoob and its childish yes but quite amusing
Funnier watching him twitch when it doesn't go out!
Its probably the height of chav but I think they are only a bit of fun.
What about VTA dump valves - they serve no purpose and only draw attention to you in the same way flamer kits do. Are dump valves now chav too?

can be good but nearly always overused. nice to have the option there to use occassionally if only to show off but to blow out like a blow torch all the time is annoyin
