needs a wet sand and another coat...next sunny day I'll be at it again. I still need to get some wire loom and get all that wire mess away, then after I swap the trans i'm gonna get a pretty water pump and timing cover and a nice lumpy bump stick.

I like the all black look. Blacked out corners and painted wheels give it that evil look.
Wish I had my 3rd gen on the road. :(

Looks good, Bubba. Certainly not bad for a rattle can job.

yes, because i couldn't stand having a car with potential if I just gave it some TLC but I couldn't afford to have it done professionally. So the rattle can is a happy medium, and it makes for that Road Warrior vibe lol

I love the wheels cause the tires and wheels kinda blend together and the blend with the car...really doesn't stand out at all, I love how discrete the whole car is

Paint looks good for a rattlecan job, but if you like how the wheels blend in so much, then why didn't you get the raised white letters turned in?

And strip it with steel wool, and paint right over the remains of the wool without cleaning it.

Sorry bud, i tell it like it is. If something doesn't look good and you express your desires for a public opinion I'm likely to state mine. I you're thin skinned than, well just go cry in the corner, now.
I guess honesty is too much for people these days, everything needs to be PC and sugarcoated.

its not a matter of telling it like it is, its called just being polite. Just because you don't like the car/paint or whatever doesn't mean you have to post and say you think its a worthless piece of crap.
People have to work with what they have, not everyone has money pouring out of their ass for a custom candy paint job with ghost flames.
Macco would work, for a little while anyway, but that's all that needed to be said.

that would have been enough, honest and to the point, give the guy a break, come on.

Why would i hate you for expressing your opinion? There's no need for it. I've been on this forum for awhile most people know that I generally speak whats on my mind, sometimes its nice sometimes its not, but yea i usually do not sugarcoat things.
anyways. /off-topic and back o talking about the rattle can painted turd gen.
Its just how tsar is, an internet tough guy.
actually i express my opinions in real world too, mister moderator.

05-10-2008, 09:37 PM
back to the rattle can painted turd gen.
there have been a couple pop up on TGO recently that actually came out really nice for a rattle can job. Maybe bubba can hit that thing with some clear, add some shine, hell if it was me i would through some stripes on it too, why not?

I know people can rattle can paint their cars and make them look nice, I have seen a few on Supra Forums and they looked good, in my opinion. That was not what was in dispute here, though, nor was it the case. If he can do it, great, but so far it looks like...well you know.
I Bet you do. :rolleyes:
hey I'm sorry if you are scared to express your opinions out loud, do not get your panties all twisted up if someone else does. I was not brought up to be PC and be a kiss ass, rather I was told to state my opinions. And quit derailing the thread because you have something against me, aren't you a mod and should know better?
making up for your time away?

Bubba's car looks tough as hell. He's getting it all ready for when he sells it to me!
Rattle can flat black is FTMFW!!!! I was hanging out @ Big Jon's garage the other day and Nick the Hammer was painting his Granada's hood flat black. And as the color went on it got cooler and cooler looking. I mean it...if my T-Type doesn't sell quickly after I get it back and I'm stuck w/ it, that ****er is gonna get sprayed flat black and have some 2.73 gears installed in da azz end! Call me "HIGHWAY STAR!!!"

I am not scared to express my opinion at all, I just do it without taking the extra step to be an ******* about it. Should I know better to what? Sit here and take your **** or say something about it? My job here isnt to sit back and listen to what every ******* has to say about everything rather try to keep the peace an not let things get out of hand like this is.

improper use of punctuation at best, but no one really uses correct punctuation on the interwebs. i guess i'm the minority that says the car doesn't look too bad. i would say it was awful had it come from a professional, but its excellent for what it is. besides, the pictures suck, how can you guys really tell without detail
