as a vw guy, i am a little up in the air with the whole rust thing. sure, if you have a piece of shit vw, or any compact for that matter, go ahead and rust it out. that bimmer is kinda cool, minus the really expensive wheels.
it's upsetting to see the trends of older cars make their way to the newer generations, because i like ratty old euro cars. but rusting a car that's still holding a good bb value is retarded.
i will admit that i picked up a hood for $20 off some kid and i was tempted to rust it as there was nothing wrong with my current one haha. either that, or there was a guy i worked with that did custom painting. he offered to paint an old dude in a wheelchair getting a BJ from a fatty on the cheap. would have done it in a heartbeat if my dad didn't toss the hood, fucker.
