Words simply cannot describe...

But I think the one that comes closest is GAWD-AWFUL.

In more cheery news, paint-removal technology marches forward with the advent of "soda-blasting." Similar to using walnut shells, granulized soda (which is a neutral substance) blasted onto the surface not only effectively removes all traces of paint but will not harm the base metal. While a more powerful blast is required, the soda is less expensive to produce than walnut shells used for this purpose.

The really good news is that there is never a shortage of cars that need to have the paint stripped, thanks to TV shows like "Pimp My Ride" and to guys like the seller of the aforementioned gawd-awful abomination.

I say to solve the paint we use a wood chipper and manage to get the road gravel thorugh it without harming the chipper.

I will support anybody who's keeping a classic RX running even if I dont agree with the style. He probably doesn't want to drive a stripped out, stiff as a board, loud assed, street car.

The car is plenty fargin scary. But the guy's name on the pic of the owner's manual... Crazy Benis ??? BENIS ? Is he the rocket fuel salesman ?

We should all name our firstborn Benis to remind us to never ever break one off in a 7 like that.

That's almost as ugly as a 2nd gen ( FC ).

"Thanks for posting all the responses up there. I didn't realize this car gonna make all of you go crazy. The original idea on the paint job and everything else is to make a unique crazy little car that no one has ever done before. From the responses, I think the project was successful. No matter you like it, hate it, think it is cool or just want to burn it, but sure it made all of you spend at least 3 mins posting opinion on it. Thanks for the following supporters:

Re: These are factory original on GSL-SE, please don't just follow others if you don't know what is going on. "
