Rat Look?

Featured Replies

Hey Everyone :D

Just wondering if anyone on here has any rat look Polo's i could see some pics of? (Mk4 preferably!)

Also wanna know what everyones opinion of rat look is? its a bit like marmite i suppose (btw i hate marmite lol!)

Basically i have a tatty Mk2 Ibiza and am thinking about ratting it while i get my Mk1 Golf conversion done, as i'm fed up of having a non done up car lol There's no ratty Ibizas out there so the closest thing to an Ibiza is a Polo :D

Ideas/Comments welcome :D I can post some pics if needed

Cheers!

Steff :thumbsup:

That's just a rusty bonnet :lol:

How is a rusted bonnet 'rat look' ^

imo it only really works on aircooled dubs, rating newer cars just makes them look like a pile of shit

steffffffy, rat look beefa eh? how is elvis doing?

rating newer cars just makes them look like a pile of shit

isn't that the whole idea tho? :lol:

i've seen some really good examples of water cooled rat's, but they are few and far between, lost in a endless stream of mk4 polo's with rusty bonnets and black and white checked detailing.

hahaahhha :D

Haha! I shouldnt do but i love how people get wound up by rat cars lol

Its each to their own isnt it, personally i wont ever go OTT with the Ibiza, i think a subtle rat look is best on modern-ish cars. Too much 'rat' looks a bit silly i must admit, i dont understand why it angers some people though lol

Saf!!!!!!! Elvis is doing well thanks :D Not much left to do now, its getting there slowly but surely. Gotta rat the 'beefa' as its to tatty to mint up and i'm getting 'done up car' withdrawal symptoms!

i know right, i take a blinding photo.

also, another topic for this? dear me.

i wouldnt say b shaws is a rat its just satin Blue. Looks sweet imo

makes me laugh when people get wound up over other peoples cars too :')

i like it, thats all that matters, let people make up their own mind

or the dub scene will become shit like alot of the other scenes where every single car is very similar!

zackly.... i did the whole rat thing on my bug years ago... got boring pretty quick when every other bloke did it.and it got very samey for somthing that was supposed to be so "different"

... got it painted properlly pretty soon after... did some subtle things that took some thought and got it painted a non vw colour. it looks like no other one but also looked nice...

Your name wound me up

Then your post wound me up

Then your last post made me laugh and want to punch you in your internet face :badgrin: You just totally contradicted your opinion on rat look and then your "each to their own" comment :lol:

I like rat and some forced. No rat sticks out for me on forced apart from Joe Blower

His attempt to piss off the scene with his two faced rocco, that worked a treat and that fact it pissed so many people off is why i loved it so much

Fucking excellent idea but he was still doing what he wanted to do despite others opinions

I believe he's re vamped his MK3 up again hasn't he?

[censored strop], doing what he wants not what everybody else wants, I got respect for that

Those that overly try to make an attempt to be scene and not heard by ratting annoy me

Those that know what I'm talking about, get it... When you see a overly forced shit looking rat car and you're just like WTF?

Put the sieve back in your mums kitchen

Least when Joe does a "rat" it looks good in it's own qwerky way, nearly all off them are shit

Can someone explain to me how putting a forced rusty bonnet on what I call a "new" car, ratlook :?

that doesnt look ratty tbh, just repainted in a matt colour

i am not a fan of forced rat. it works on aircooled cars and tbh if i was gonna have a beetle i would want a rat one. but it doesnt really work on anything else and just looks shit

id prefer to drive a standard car then mod it badly tbh

Craig you meanie :lol: Poor B-Shaw haha :smirk:

haha!

my mate was right, this place is worse than passionford. :smirk:

Mods, please feel free to delete this thread, i'll just scoot back over to my nice, friendly, everyone has their own opinion forum.

Sorry to cause soooo much trouble.

Thanksies :D

Dirrt and her crazy outbursts, don't judge the forum by one of its retarded members.

Low post count member comes on and asks a question and a few of you have little digs and go all "club polo" on her.

Get a grip its a bloody forum, would you speak like this in person?

no you would not say a damn thing as you hide in the corner and then get home and soon as you get your keyboard fix ohhhhhhh you are off
