Afro Engineer

v. The opposite of nigger rigging. Taking a well working vehicle (car, SUV, motorcycle) and making it unable to perform to it's original specifications. The vehicle's new purpose is only to gain the attentions of every human within earshot. Vehicles which have been Afro Engineered can be characterized by their extraordinarily loud exhaust systems and/or stereo systems, have shiny over-sized wheels, and will be seen swerving. They are operated by individuals with little to no skill or insurance and the scent of alcohol and/or marijuana will be present.
1. Afro Engineer-ed Car: Putting 22" spinners, lambo doors, ultra dark tint windows, and an Alpine stereo in a Chrysler 300. Usually seen cruising 10-15 mph under the speed limit, smoke rolling out of the windows.

2. Afro Engineer-ed Motorcycle: A grossly extended swing arm, fat rear tyre, ground effects, and graffiti inspired paint job on a Suzuki Gixxer. Can no longer take turns property, but can go fast in a straight line, which matches the (lack of) skill level seen in the riders.

Extra points for a ho with a mini skirt, tank top, and 6" heels on the back.
