When someone or something creates the illusion of anything being done or made d.i.y. or adhering closely to the d.i.y. ethos of do-it-yourself, but the truth is lacking the d.i.y. spirit.
There is a bis song (This is Fake diy) that bemoans the trend.
This is/ funded by a major/
But shabbily packaged to pretend that it’s cool

Those Urban pants are cute, but they're so fake d.i.y. with the cub scout patches sewn all over them.

An example of glam d.i.y. is wearing your own sewed clothes, trying to pop out through the massification of easy consumers and easy thinkers.
An example of the "antipackaging" lifestyle, is refusing most of the occidental culture market stereotypes, or actively making boycotting any kind of pre-packaged good, a choice of life.
An historical example of glam d.i.y.ers, are the misfits.

A play on words of Do It Yourself and dicks describing a situation where you go to a job, place, store (home improvement or otherwise), or event and the staff doesn’t really want to be bothered or be helpful so they do the bare minimum and leave you to fend for yourself most of the time under the guise that they are giving you creative space or autonomy.
When I was a kid, I went to the community center to learn how to swim but the instructors just tossed me in the deep end and said “Now, swim bitch!”. They are such D.I.Y.(ks).
Or
I walked into the most ghetto hardware store I have ever seen. Obviously no one gives a fuck about customer service. When I told the clerks who were chatting at the front counter that I was re-doing the sink at my house for the 1st time, instead of asking me questions or offing to help me pick materials, one just nodded in the direction of the copper pipe and they went back to their conversation. Puro D.I.Y.(is)!
