i wouldnt say that the TOymods Car Club could be called popular culture, because the nature of our social club has been around for 20 years +, just in other forms.
Yes there is now the "popular culture" of car "modifying", but the atmosphere and nature of the actual toymods car club is far more about being a social group, out there to help each other out with a common passion for one car.
Personally, i would look more at online car forums as being popular culture these days. It has made it so easy for a large group of people (in the thousands) to stay in touch with one another and share views, opinions, ideas and assistance and organise meetings and events. Just look at all the car forums sprouting EVERYWHERE! There is almost a forum for every car nowdays, sometimes more.
eg:
Toymods
Twincam.org
Performance forums
nissanpulsar.org
luxtreme
QLDstreetcar
hot4's/fastfours (eek)
autoyotaownersclub
classiccelica
celica supra
etc
etc
etc
