You might notice that...let's see, how shall I say this...they are a bit dirtier than factory-issued. (After all, they are GM products! :P ) In order to dirty them up a bit more authentically, I left them near a sump pump detention basin (made of mud) near the side of our house for about a month. They were then taken inside, dried, and left sitting for about 2 weeks. Hope you like the results!

Support your local demo derby.

They look really trashed now. Pretty interesting technique used for the process.

Look good not hard to restore a bit of sandpaper some new windows l.o.l. They remind me of a couple of cars i seen in a field years ago in Alabama .You know how the sun burns the paint off down to the primer and that red clay soil they were sitting in i imagine a windy day and it would sandblast the cars .Very well done .
