Well just curious too know what people think about airbrushing is it a think of the past??
Or does it create a unique look to the interior or exterior of a car??
currently the interior of my vl is in many pieces and on its way to be very different when it returns, its being done in sections over a period of time so that I can still drive it.
If anyone is interested I can post pics when the first pieces return.

cant say im a fan of airbrushing but it depends if its done tastefully or not, these cars fully airbrushed from frt. to rear look cheap IMO.

but some tastefull interior brushing can set a car off. especially in boot installs etc.

but its your car dude, what you like is best,dont worry about what other people think. you drive it!!!

and yes post pics. but maybe in your rides thread. (if you have one) ;)

Not a big fan myself of front to rear airbrushing but something tasteful can go along way towards the overall look especially in the interior !

I dont like airbrushing off 'stuff' - like chicks or movie characters or animals. They never seem 'right'. I like flames (on cars they suit), and I loved the Alpine 300C that was at the Silverdome Show last year. I guess it just depends, its not something I'd ever do to my own car.

It always reminds me of dodgy old 80s pinball machines with the sort of dodgy artwork you see on them.

I think it has to be not too out there, I was going too bring it to the drag day but it will not be finished until the week after.I did it to be different when you see modified car every one does the same thing big body kits nice paint work yeah all those things make a car look nice but there is no harm in being different.So I am going with standard bumpers just all new and clean up the body and airbrushing but not too much.
