dreadful1 7 Report post Posted May 3, 2010 I'm thinking the rust thing will work awesome with either a) really bright rims , or really shiny dished rims. But I'll explore that soon enough. Mmmmmm I like +1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pjay 8 Report post Posted May 3, 2010 I see where you're coming from Andy, and IMO its more the colour. Not the age. The Fire engine red is a bit bright as is for the rust, it needs less rust or more contrast. Pics below to support my reasoning. Heres a E46 with a rust bonnet and I think it wins: And then here's Jasons old E36 with the same bonnet, and it works REALLY well. Red car with less rust.

huff3r 347 Report post Posted May 3, 2010 Chuck some used oil over the rust to make it dark and contrast more perhaps? You know exactly what im referring to haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greenday-rulz21 6 Report post Posted May 3, 2010 You know what I think Peter. It looked so cool in my rear view mirror on Sunday. Seriously. Its a shame I didn't have a proper camera to take a few snaps. I got a few from behind with my phone which look pretty cool, I'll post them on FB.

pjay 8 Report post Posted May 3, 2010 Haha, yeah my mate that was driving was all "Will that Nick guy race me? I'm going to stay in front just in case!" I lol'd. Hes a real Nana driver which is why I let him drive the car while I'm waiting on my licence back, of course only when I'm in it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
