        I like the new sig Ben. And on another note can we delete TimR's account? That shit just annoys me...

          So my trunk is fubar'd, the paint is really bad. A year ago I tried to see if putting wax on it would make it better and it messed it up even worse. So I'm thinking of wrapping it in some carbon fiber di-noc vinyl or matte black. What do you guys think?



          I also thought about doing the rusted look that some cars are doing lately to see how it looks

            Don't do rusted, it looks retarded.

            Get Ben to try and detail your trunk, he might have some good luck with it.

              Dude new trunk lid can be had super cheap.

              Or painter's supply on Broadway and Santa Fe. They can mix into spray cans.

              I've practically painted my whole car this way.

              Details on the original Mini please

                    no CF wrap, that would be retarded. I bet if you wet sanded and buffed, it would turn out perfect. Do 1500 grit first, then 2000, then 4000, maybe you can skip 2000, then buff w/ cutting compound.

                        No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                          Tim hooked me up with the paint, but it isn't that expensive.

                              Seriously. Else I'd be loooooong expelled from here.

                              No rust. Please no rust. It's possibly detailable, you'd have to do some CAREFUL wetsanding, and then polish it out.

                              Or just repaint it with materials from painter's supply. Prep is everything, and be sure to do thin coats.
