dirty diesel ratter

[Wayne]

wayne - for better or for worse, that';s the idea. the swage line has been bare metalled (is that a verb?) and allowed to rust in the hope that it'll come through the primer and look cool! maybe 

Fair enough,

I think this is pretty cool, but not to sure on the rust idea myself tbh, kind of makes the car 'rotting' rather than 'ratting' but it could work.
Nato green doesn't sound to me a bad idea?

Oh yes, i love a rat 

ive painted my bumper using a roller, looks the nuts  (will be using bathroom  paint, waterprrof and washable)

how far you going to take this?

[lewis1641]

i would like to take it this far...



achieved by letting the car rust, then a loight sanding followed by a coat of kurust to darken it then oil rubbed in to seal it.  looks awesome but not sure about how easy it wold be to look after.

it has sparked something in the mrs though and we are planning on a ww2 bomber inspired paint scheme using hte grey as a handy base.

i am not into gluing stuff onto the car to make it look sh!t.  we'll see where it ends up

[shepgti]

this could go very wrong

I remember seeing the BMW in one of the mags, very different.

[dubsport]

I would like you to take it that far!
