Fancy driving on highway, then suddenly this golden car pops out of nowhere... Jaws will drop, focus will be momentarily stunned you know.

 

May even lead to accident if you understand what I mean... [laugh]

yo bro, that's a real well painted surface! BTW, did you notice the rims gold is lighter than usual? My guess is either it is gold paint, or some kind of gold alloy (possibly with a lighter color metal like nickel or something, perhaps to toughen the gold). Pure gold (24k) is too soft for this application.

 

Even the light insets are gold-treated. :-) Lot of work!

 

You guys watch those car mod shows on Discovery Channel 72?

The gold surface must be able to withstand brake dust and weather elements. Otherwise imagine the amount of effort required to restore the rims.

 

Lots of work and lots of $ spent on this car too [nod]
