In my day the kids wanted fast cars that looked great, performed well with functional performance wheels and good condition panels.

Now the kids want slow cars that look abandoned, perform terribly with horrendous wheels and stretched tires and ruined body panels.

>>15848194
To be fair, you could have the fastest car in the world or a 1998 vw jetta, but you're still bound to the same speed limit as everyone else, which is like 70 in everywhere except TX. Even accelerating too fast in illegal. So you might as well make it look cool if you can't make it fast

>>15848137
Trying to simulate a heavily three-dimensional texture with a flat wrap is going to fail regardless of what look they were going for.
>>
>>15848137
That wrap is tacky as fuck and the wheels far too clean for it.

It'd work on an autism barge, or an older (E30 and preceding) BMW. The issue here is that this car still looks new. It isn't dated enough for "rusted shitheap" to click, and won't be till a couple of decades when the new modern car design is a windowless blob.

jap scrap rides and rat rods are cool. Repairing a rusted beater and driving it until it rots in half is cool. Driving your car hard and not caring about how it looks as lomg as sit performs well is cool. Taking a new or newer car an DC making it look like a rusted shitheap on purpose is not cool. Using a wrap to try and simulate that while saving your cars paint is even less cool. Patina is awesome. Fake patina is retarded and for posers.

I always thought the best looking cars had nice, conservative paint jobs. The kind of paint where you glance at it and it fits in in any parking lot, but the more you look, the more you appreciate the lines, contours and color.

I can't really get behind the rat rod thing unless you literally pulled a junker from the scrap heap and got it to run.

I also like the 100% covered sponsor sticker racing look, but you're an asshole if you dd a car like that

It's just a difference of opinion, I know, but I'm just unable to grasp how anyone would think that's attractive. I thought lowriders were bad, with the shag carpet interiors, tiger stripes and such, but this is...

Patina is impossible pretty much everywhere so long as the car isn't old, because carmakers don't use single stage paint anymore. Clearcoat gets milky, flakes off and looks like complete shit when it gets neglected and weathered, single stage paint fades and wears through but never looks as shitty as failing clearcoat.

When you lower the beetles they get camber naturally due to the design of the suspension.
When you lower them they get negative camber, when you raise them they get positive camber.
