Default What is that mod? Where do I get it?

Hey Everyone,

I've been a member of different car forums for years, and often come across posts of a member posting a pic of their car, and others asking, "What rims are those?" "What shift **** is that" "What is that exhaust?"

I've decided to remedy this and create a website where you'll be able to upload a photo of your car, and tag different mods on it, like you can tag people on Facebook. You'll be able to say what each mod is, where you bought it and how much you paid for it. When hovering over a picture of a car you will see exactly what has been tagged. Here is an example from a website I’ve created for the Fashion community. Hover over the photo to see how the tagging will work, http://www.fashionhungry.net/fashion/style/132

You'll be able to browse different mods (ex. VW GTI BBS, Honda intake or Ford Spoiler)

You'll also be able to enter your car into a battle with another member's car, and get people to vote on their favorite. You'll be able to share the link to the battle on forums, Facebook, Twitter etc...

I'm launching this website at the beginning of September, and am doing a pretty heavy marketing camapaign at this year's ImportFest in Toronto.

Here's a sneak peek, http://www.modhungry.com

What do you guys think of the idea? Any suggestions or recommendations on what else you'd like to see? One thing I will not be doing on the website is a forum, as there are enough great forums for the different makes that are already well established.

I quite like the idea & should be an interesting source of info for the custom builder once established Clearly there is a commercial aspect to the site you have created with I assume, a supplier link to the highlighted mod.Are you going to be equally supportive of homemade mods as you are commercially available ones?
