Re: Should i keep this patina look or No???
From up here in the heavy rustbelt, "patina" means it's a ****box. Maybe when the budget allows, then it'll get a paintjob. Perspective is everything. I'll admit there are some nice looking real-tina trucks on here. I don't deny that. But there is NO rust showing on them. From up here in salt country, I'll take mine shiney, thank you very much. (And so sorry to those that I have offended--but if you're actually offended..........
 )

that looks great to me...maybe a little heavy on the grille & bumper, but the body panels have a nice patina IMO |
