MicroMachinery Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 http://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/cto/2078204271.html That's so ironic that you posted this listing. This car used to belong to a friend of mine, back before 2 engine fires and various other disgraces. It used to be a "respectable" car... now it's an abortion regularly seen on the Vortex... <_< Quote Link to comment

DatLuv Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 I want to rust-out a hood on my 210. I kinda think the whole euro-rat kind of theme goes hand-in-hand with the Ratsun theme. I am going to be mounting some large, in your face, super shiny carbon fiber louvers on the hood of the car, and I think some beautiful carbon amidst the total Ratsun-Patina- rust theme will just throw the car into a whole different ballpark. I know that to criticize for use of carbon fiber and on an intentionally rusted hood is kind of blasphemy but... Isn't that just too much of a clash? Its a clash of Ideas, textures, finishes, purposes.... I get that you want it to be different but it almost is on the realm of "ricerish." Now some louvers would be beautiful IMO. (not to this extent but you get the idea.) Or even if you took the carbon fiber, stripped the gel coat off of the surface, sprayed it flat black and then sanded in a way to make it look worn that might not be much of a clash at all. Some more conservative food for thought. [imghttp://ekhatch.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/datsun_510_wtfang_1.jpg[/img] But a warning... Fads like this usually die down when it gets around to the honda kids.... PS: the honda picture reminds me... Give me your Diamonds for FREE! haha Quote Link to comment
