i worked one year for a company called magic creative media.. i was an installer, designer and yes it looks good. u have to walk close and touch it to see if its real or not.

the only thing is that you cant use glossy vinyl.... shiny rust looks unreal, right?
btw most ppl on the street asking if the grafx on my boss car is paint.

i think its really unique. Very cool idea. I was inspired recently by a guy on r3vlimted.com who painted his E30 with a copper paint and then let it sit until it had this AWESOME statue of liberty green patina on it with these insane cool water marks and then cleared over it with a flat clear so it still had texture and wasnt shiny.

Personally, anything to set you apart these days. Remember lambo doors were once cutting edge

I agree, it looks good on older cars

what a waste, there are some cars there on that site that look real good otherwise

i don't get it either, but then again i never got the honda's driving around with 18's in the rear and stocks up front ( i know why they did it, but didn't get it lol)

So does that mean that my ultra scratched hood and front fenders are going to be in soon if I pass on getting them recleared??? I'll have the first silver/rust tC!!!

But seriously, rust is like metal rotting, haha, that's not exactly a good thing, so why do it? I guess for the same reason people go FI or slam their cars, eh?
