I know the Europeans have a rep for being "out there" with some of their trends, but I just don't see this one catching on over here at all. Looks like some of the "rusted" hoods are a faux finish and others look as if they are deliberately rusted and then treated to prevent spreading. Can't say I like it at all.
BTW,, the last pic(BMW) was just PAINFUL to look at.
uhm, few cars above are from US, so its catching on already - BROKESTATUS VW has MA plates , other is Vermont plates and the BMW - Tennesse. And I have my bet that the beemer is Vynil'ed out, but those BBS are hella sexy.
This is going to be one of those trends people look back at in 20 years and just laugh. So ridiculous. I've seen this before though... it started with the VW community (as you can tell by observing the majority brand in those pics). They also love to put bike racks or similar roof racks on their roofs with bikes or whatever else attached even if they don't actually use them... it's a visual accessory.

It's like Derelict from Zoolander. I just don't get it. I can buy a junked car and join in on the fun easily without having to de-modify my clean new car.
