* To be different; show off something unusual. More extreme the display, more unlikely of encountering someone else with the same setup.

* Annoy hardcore enthusiasts. They like seeing and/or hearing people get upset about, "ruining a good car." The setup was never intended to be taken seriously and they get a real kick when someone does.

* It's just a thing. No real reason for it, other than stroke the owner's ego and build street gossip.

* Impressed the girls.
