A friend and I were discussing a similar idea for a 'hooligan' urq,
'sometime' in the future. The 'way off' furture, for sure..

The though was to paint the urq a 'satin' black, then airbrush along body
seams and such with details of the old 'aluminum' plane construction. The
rivet lines, and perhaps small hatches, and the  piston engine 'exhaust
dirt'. Would go well with with a 'bit louder' exhaust..? Lots of interesting
details that could be lifted from those old planes..  :-)  "Ghsot Flames"
would fit right in there, along with the Audi logos done in same colour as
body, but in  full gloss paint. Woundn't even see them unless you were
looking from the right angle..

Thanks for the interesting thread!
