Blinged up scooter - front view
Even small bikes can be blinged Bling...you can Google for it... and you'll find whilst originating in Rap culture, its use as a term for anything flashy , jewellry etc , is now wide-spread. Certainly in the car and motorcycle accessory area the term is widely used especially for decorative personalising accessories.
It seems the Thais have a natural flair for bling....in fact they probably invented it and some Gangsta stole it off them.
When you look closely at Thai temples they usually have lots of coloured mirrored glass (not to mention gold!) - classic bling.
From Temples to tooth-braces....everything can be blinged in Thailand. I just wish I'd asked the girl with jewels in her teeth braces to let me take a picture!
Even the birds have bling....
Now I'll just let some pictures tell the story...
