I think it looks fake and silly. Reminds me of cheesy mid-90s faux paint for home interiors.

Shit, who would've thought my truck's look would become desirable?

Isn't there a deliberately rusty Ford Escort or something around Calgary? It's not a wrap though...

I don't get the fad though. It doesn't make sense in any of the pictures you posted because those cars being rusty like that without a bath in the ocean just isn't remotely plausible in 2016.

The rusty hood look I like. That's just a light acid on bare metal then clear coated

Printed wrap isn't it? Not actual rust

Don't like this patina crap... the flat black still looks better...

The Porsche is kinda cool but im sure a hello kitty themed Porsche would still be doable.

:D Thanks for the pic. I was trying to figure out what you guys meant by pallet on the roof and had no idea it would be an actual pallet.

I don't see the point of rust wrap....

But if you buy a car from GOFC it happens naturally after a couple of months.
