its the same way they make chicken mcnuggets. they take all the discarded parts of the pig and cow, the parts that would seem unsalvageable - grim, grizzly shit.. they throw it all in a giant food processor along with some MSG, 'spices', a shit load of sodium nitrite and preservatives and pink die and emulsify it into a mystery meat paste, and squeeze it out into loaves that are then cooked and mechanically chopped. sweet.
itll be a cold day in hell when we feed our kid bologna
The matte paint thing is more mainstream than you think. You can order a Turbo Veloster with matte paint. It comes with its own special car washing solution and detailing supplies. It would be a real pain in the rear to own - you can't wax it, drive it through a car wash etc. Not exactly my cup of tea.

It's gotta be that. At $9 a can or whatever, plastidip is not very cheap compared to most other spray finishes. :lol:
Man, I kind of like it. I would eat a fried bologna sandwhich right now and enjoy every bite.
I can't remember his username, but there is a guy on here who has a blue plastidipped Golf... Looks pretty cool IMO. Probably not something I would ever do unless I just had a beater I was bored with, but it can look decent/some people just want something different. I agree with them that it's lame that most cars only come in gray scale/a few boring colors.

I'd buy the "different strokes" argument if people weren't asserting that perfect factory finishes look "cheap" compared to a 5-minute rattle can job in your driveway.
Chrome plating in particular costs MORE than paint - You might not like it, but it is not cheap.

If you go to Honda-tech or a place like that it's all over... mostly just chrome factory finish. The GTI paint seems kind of cheap to me though... But better than something aftermarket.
