I absolutely agree, why take out something that wasn't broken to begin with it honestly helped add character to cars that didn't have such a good selection of customization parts.
Not to mention the removed the ability to stretch tires on any car you want, now the only way to get that is to have a drift car? That's absolutely dumb,
I mean the game is great overall just bring those 2 things back and at least for me it will be 10000% better.
EA is doing a lot of messed up stuff right now........don't mess this up please re-add these features in a future update.
