Haha not seen that yet. Oh dear. Ah well each to their own eh? Grin

WorraLiberty · 10/12/2011 13:34

Lol I haven't seen them but they sound like fun Grin

IwasHere · 10/12/2011 13:34

I saw them on some reality show and was actually stunned by them. Why would anyone buy those hideous lashes. They are awful

hiccymapops · 10/12/2011 13:37

Not for me, but my friend had them on her mini, and I thought they were quite cute. If you knew her, you'd know they suited her Grin. She had to take them off though, they scratch the paintwork to bits.

JjandtheBean · 10/12/2011 13:45

Ah yes I've seen these along with bright pink lip decal, amusing but wouldn't have them on my car. --sayes the women with a red nose and antlers attached to the family car--

Meglet · 10/12/2011 13:47

I've seen them. Are they even legal?

Obviously you wouldn't see a man drive a car with them on..........

I saw a Fiat 500 with them on yesterday. DH was very WTAF? Grin

I have never understood the big flower thing on the dashboard of a VW Beetle.

valiumredhead · 10/12/2011 14:46

I saw them ages ago - tut tut, keep up Wink

cheesesarnie · 10/12/2011 14:49

loads round here(not mine!)

KaraStarbuckThrace · 10/12/2011 14:51

I saw this very pink Fiat 500 with them on. I admit I took a picture to show DH.

Personally, I think they are great. They warn me that the driver of the car is a dumb as fuck so probably should be given a very wide berth.

Hey if guys can have truck nutz whats the problem with eyelashes?. Ive never seen them but I like the sound of them,bet they look cute on the right car:o

PurplePidjInAPearTree · 10/12/2011 14:59

They're seen a lot on Beetles on the show scene.

I have never seen a Beetle with eyelashes win a show and shine.

Mockery is rife.

Don't know about eyelashes, but I did see a people carrier in Tesco with Antlers on the top! I think the were tucked into the back windows Xmas Hmm

TrottersIndependantTrading · 10/12/2011 15:07

there is a bright pink Ka on our street, complete with 'fairy dust' sticker, lashes etc, it is driven by a young man! he never looks happy

BleurghUna · 10/12/2011 15:50

Anything's better than a "Baby on Board" sticker ...

molepomandmistletoe · 10/12/2011 15:52

I'd rather see a "Baby on Board" sticker then a "Little Prince/Princess on board" sticker.

MrsRhettButler · 10/12/2011 15:53

Oooh oooh I've seen a man driving one!

And we have two cars with eyelashes round here!

Dd announced that she wants one like that when she is older.

MrsRhettButler · 10/12/2011 15:54

Oh coffee! You saw jjandthebean! Grin

RightUpMyRue · 10/12/2011 15:55

Don't for the heart/bumble bee/sunflower topper on the aerial. They finish the picture to perfection!

Kayano · 10/12/2011 16:08

I have seen tinker bell emblazoned on a petrol cover with'powered by pixie dust' written on the car Hmm

And on the other side of same car playboy bunnys... HmmHmm

deemented · 10/12/2011 16:10

Lots of cars with antlers and red noses round here.

Tragic.

smartyparts · 10/12/2011 16:11

I have spotted a few of these - always driven by complete munters.

KittyFane · 10/12/2011 16:12

I hate the playboy bunny stickers -WHY?!
