Propper rat lol

It's not like that though.. i guarantee the majority of people who 'rat' their cars like this aren't thinking..

''I really like the original Rat cars, thus i will incorporate that theme into my car, even if others dont like it, it will make me happy..''

They're actually thinking..

''I cant afford / be arsed to do anything decent to my car, it already has a rust spot the size of a penny so i may aswel just stick as much shit as possible on the car and call it a rat..''

that was my thinking,i didnt just rust my bonnet and cover it in iron crosses

my roots are in hot rods and thats where i drew my inspiration

most of that beetle is forced rust tho

most of that beetle is forced rust tho

but still in a way it look's natural just like your polo polo did imo and for me that's why it worked so well. i love seeing car's that have had some time, effort and imagination put into them to make them look old/dilapidated (is that the right word?). doing this costs nothing but has a massive effect and can look so fucking cool.

unfortunately so many people just seem like they can't be arsed and just rust the bonnet, paint the head lights yellow, write cock on the back then put shit like traffic cones and kids bikes on the roof, just like nearly every one else in that scene.

cheers mate,its up at a friends house at minute,will be coming back soon so will get a build thread up

thats what i meant,the kid above was sayin that beetles cool cos its original rust and its not

no mate, this 'kid' said that the beetle looks good as its a classic and the rust kinda builds on that theme, whereas a polo with bare dents and rust on looks fucking gash in my opinion. I'm not a hater, I'm just being objective

I'm not sure what to do with my polo tbh, i like rat look so i think I'm gonna matt black it and rust the bonnet. I want it to be original, so i might do a hoodride stencil on the bonnet - what you lot reckon?

go for it mate, it will look really original and fresh

olly u touch your polo and i will stab you!

:lol:

Dont worry, i enjoy being different which recently seems to be trying to keep your car looking nice

Olly, you will die if mat black or paint-stripper goes anywhere near your car.

Unless its during prep for a full respray!

Slackers MK2 is cool as it actually has some different stuff done to it and i see it as a work of art tbh.

That MK3 covered in stickers n shit i think is complete and utter wank.

you dont see many polo rats because when you do you think mug

think you win the title of worst forced rat ever! what a pile of shit! even the scooter is wank.

I'm gonna get banned for that aren't I lol

Don't really feel rat. There was only one car that broke out and I actually liked and that was obviously Rolo's hydro'd mark 3 golf. All the rest just seems to have followed suit and is now trying too hard.

Funny at first and something new and interesting. Now it's just a joke imo. =/

I hope you get bummed for it, nevermind banned

you do realize that what you just said was a compliment to both his car and his scooter?
