Choosing to use a seat cover could mean a few things. You're either a pimply-faced teen who knows every line of every Fast and Furious movie, you're a grandma who drives once a week, you're a broke dude who is covering up seats in your $950 that smell like cats, or you're just some crazy girl who thinks they're super cutsie. Like air fresheners, we'd like to establish that seat covers are never acceptable. Furthermore, there are plenty of hideous seat covers that will portray to everybody on the planet that you're not in your right mind. We're talkin' cheesy flower prints, hardcore skull prints and weird massager covers, and something we think came out of the mind of a monkey on drugs. These are The 25 Worst Car Seat Covers Available Now.

26. Nightmare Before Christmas
Avoid Purchasing Here: $104.90
The Nightmare Before Christmas is undeniably a holiday classic, but it's hard to understand the logic behind turning Jack Skellington into a car decoration. Most drivers would rather not equate their rides with death.
24. Evil Smiley Face
Avoid Purchasing Here: $16.95
They don't make 'em much creepier than this deranged smiley-face-and-crossbones combination. Most people are going to assume that the owner of such seat covers is a maniacal individual, which doesn't necessarily bode well in the event of a traffic stop. On the other hand, anyone willing to buy this set probably isn't too worried about the law.
23. Red Hawaiian Print
Avoid Purchasing Here: $21.76
At some point in time, a god-forsaken artist decided to convert your dad's favorite vacation clothes into the "Red Hawaiian" seat cover. Seriously, we're sure that there is some book somewhere that proves that anyone who owns this set immediately falls into a crippling mid-life crisis.
22. Pink Bow
Avoid Purchasing Here: $22.50
Nothing screams "dainty" quite like a pink bow. If you're in the business of looking dainty, then go ahead and plaster them all over your car seats. Otherwise, start backing away now and don't stop until the frilliness is out of sight.
21. Natural Bamboo
Avoid Purchasing Here: $19.50
The makers of this "100% Natural Bamboo" seat cover would like their customers to know that it doubles as a "massage cushion." We would like their customers to know that the massage cushion also doubles as an "eyesore."
20. Piston Skull
Avoid Purchasing Here: $19.25
One piece of advice for shoppers who are drawn to this image of a skull impaled on a piston-make sure you have the car to back up such a hardcore design. The cover's "lethal threat" slogan doesn't match up too well with a Camry.
19. Ozzy Ozbourne
Avoid Purchasing Here: $13.00
If you are one of Ozzy Ozbourne's six remaining fans, rejoice! Someone has taken the liberty of converting the Prince of Darkness's "Diary of a Madman" album into a set of seat covers. On the downside, other drivers will likely assume that the set's owner is just as addled as Ozzy.
18. Shaggy Green
Avoid Purchasing Here: $19.99
Did they have to produce the Shaggy Green seat cover set in such a horrifying shade of green? That neon coloring isn't exactly easy on the eyes. Throw in the fact that it has the texture of a giant Swiffer pad, and you have a truly miserable product.
17. Live, Laugh, Love
Avoid Purchasing Here: $58.99
Walk into any college-age girl's dorm room, and you're likely to spot some version of the inescapable "Live, Laugh, Love" slogan. Don't contribute to the madness by covering every inch of your car with that nonsense.
16. Dolphins
Avoid Purchasing Here: $55.43
Yet another seat cover design that would be more at home in your little sister's room than a car. We can't state this firmly enough-there is no place for fanciful sea creatures in a car.
15. Cow Print
Avoid Purchasing Here: $33.14
Aside from opening the unsuspecting driver up to every fat joke in existence, these cow print covers are just plain ugly. There's nothing appealing about dressing the inside of your car up as a filthy farm animal.
14. Paw Print
Avoid Purchasing Here: $15.28
Look, we love dogs as much as the next guy, but the line has to be drawn somewhere. Cars seats covered in paw prints might seem like a declaration of canine love, but they will cause everyone to assume that you're one of those unhinged "my dogs are my children" guys.
13. Moon Dreaming
Avoid Purchasing Here: $16.59
Anything going by the name of "Moon Dreaming" is a lock to look like the world's cheesiest fairytale come to life. Drivers with the cojones to ride around with this set should expect to be pulled over on general principle.
12. Hearts
Avoid Purchasing Here: $36.99
On one hand, we have to give it up to the designer of this heart-themed accessory for restraining his inner Taylor Swift and keeping his artwork simple. On the other, we'd be pretty shocked if anyone possessing a Y chromosome would even consider dropping 40 bucks for a set.
11. Butterfly
Avoid Purchasing Here: $10.00
This butterfly-themed cover looks as though it were stenciled and bedazzled by a first-grader before ballet class. Incidentally, the design appeals far more to the average grade-schooler than anyone of legal driving age.
10. KISS
Avoid Purchasing Here: $18.00
Sure, KISS's "Love Gun" album was classic ... in 1977. New rule: Any band that was putting out music when your parents were teenagers is officially exempt from car seats.
9. Snow Leopard
Avoid Purchasing Here: $55.38
Snow Leopards are pretty badass, but we're not sure that their spots are the best way to dress up your car's interior. Do you really want your car looking like a handbag that a Kardashian would be toting around?
8. Moon Fairy
Avoid Purchasing Here: $14.99
The Moon Fairy set is the visual equivalent of a stab wound, featuring a color scheme and artwork that have no place in your prized whip. Any guy who's willing to rock this garbage is still living in his mother's basement. He's also probably holding large Magic tournaments and LAN parties in said basement.
7. Pink Zebra
Avoid Purchasing Here: $59.95
Car seat covers and animal prints have a long and storied relationship, and that's not going to change anytime soon. Still, it's probably best if the inside of your car didn't resemble the set of a 1970's porno.
6. Hello Kitty
Avoid Purchasing Here: $88.99
If you're looking for a way to out yourself as a weirdo, look no further than this Hello Kitty ensemble. It's only a matter of time before the owners of this abomination make the jump from fictional kittens to becoming that crazy cat person who lives next door.
5. Ed Hardy
Avoid Purchasing Here: Check Availability
Unless you're planning on cruising through Seaside Heights with The Situation, we'd stay away from this sorry excuse for a cover. Ed Hardy apparel attracts meatheads the like moths to an open flame.
4. Tinkerbell
Avoid Purchasing Here: Check Availability
Are you a hopeless Disney addict who refuses to acknowledge reality? If so, this Tinkerbell car seat scheme is perfect. Just prepare yourself to be relentlessly mocked by everyone in a 10-mile radius.
3. Purple Leopard
Avoid Purchasing Here: $49.85
Purple leopard spot prints have been a fixture in the cars of crazy aunts for decades. If that doesn't raise a few warning bells, just think about to your latest family event. All of a sudden, those spots aren't looking so great.
2. Rainbow Zebra
Avoid Purchasing Here: $44.95
This Rainbow Zebra seat cover collection will make your car look like a portable Grateful Dead concert. For those who aren't tripping balls, it's probably better to go with something a bit more low-key.
1. Pink Pig
Avoid Purchasing Here: $44.99
This "Pink Pig" set is absolutely baffling. The nonsensical words, the hot pink coloring, the lounging piglet ... none of it makes any sense. We want to look away, but we just can't. In fact, we'd be a lot happier if we had never found out about it.
