    I quite like it hey!
    Still not toooo sure about the RUSTic look they have gone for, but none the less its something different!
    Love the colour coded wheel arches, looks pretty phat IMO!
    Real nice stance aswell and the wheels are killa, but need a tad more dish on the rears I reckon

    The rat look works for mk1's and 2's, but I can't say I'm a fan of the mk3's with the orientation. Its a cool car with alot of attitude and personality, but its still not in my tastes. The rusted panels bother me to be honest...

    Yeah, it's all a bit about being different. It's the US thing and their dub scene's pretty established, so something like that over there is actually refreshing! To be honest, I'd rather see a rusty (deliberate or not) Mk3 than another WRX with chromies and airspray graphics!

    Hahaha good point. It looks cool, and very rugged but I can't see how a car like that can be registered here anyway... Thats the only issue I have realy. And the amount of bonnets you go through yearly hahaha.

    Same. Its too early to have ratted out MK3's. MK1's or aircooled only IMO.

    i agree. This rusted out look seems to be very opoular in europe. I dont like it, it just makes the car look old and unfinished.

    I'm not a fan of it. and normally i am a fan of rat style (not so much on mk3s, but i really dig retro with a touch of rat) i think everything on that car (rims, front swap, two door and rust bonnet ) makes me dislike it. i think if each of these parts where on a different car i would quite like the look, but the total sum of the parts makes me dislike it . sorry


    EDIT: i like the back half of the car only lol, stance is tough with the rims and coded moulds

    I have to admit it, the look is cool..I like the look. I think it's something about the colour of the rust, as well as the contrast of silver with it. HOWEVER, i could NEVER do that to my dub! That would worry the crap out of me..i'm too clean haha.
