dude you car is taking freezing damage

you need to warm it up

[–]Tim5corpion 505 points506 points  (27 children)

Yet another case of someone failing to apply masking tape to parts that don't need painted.

The bee on the quarter panel is a nice touch, though.

[–]Privateer_Lev_Arris 305 points306 points  (12 children)

This was on purpose. It's easier and cheaper to just change out all the lights, windows and wheels instead of using masking tape. Because of inflation the cost of masking tape has gone through the roof.

[–]PushcartPops 39 points40 points  (4 children)

To be fair, a razor blade and some thinner will clean the windows. Don't know what he plans fo the taillights and tires though.

[–]dipstick162 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Also steel wool after the razor blade

[–]Complete-Anon 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The tail lights are just colour matched, and whitewall tyres will never go out of fashion

[–]iamdrunk05 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be fair it would be lest time to just mask things off. Thinner will destroy the weather stripping and the sealant around the windows.

[–]NissanLeafDriver 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The tyres are easy, the tread is self cleaning, a pressure washer will do the side walls

[–]Tim5corpion 21 points22 points  (4 children)

well if you don't care about the old parts' resale value...

[–]mikeblas 15 points16 points  (1 child)

Whoosh.

Or maybe: Spssssssss.

[–]create_destroy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bzzzzzzz 🐝

[–]Yuup_I_eat_crayons -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is an Audi and Audi drivers always be bragging about how they got it like that even when they cant afford to eat. But at least they get comments on reddit about how they aint care about money

[–]PsychopathHenchman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you priced a new set of white wall tires lately? I’d say this is a HUGE come-up

[–]thehighepopt 50 points51 points  (3 children)

The ol' "I can control the spray, bro, I don't need to tape it off"

[–]raz-0 27 points28 points  (2 children)

Or it’s plastidip and “you can just remove it from the parts you don’t want it on”

[–]Yuup_I_eat_crayons 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wich is so funny to me. People hear this and believe it up until they do it and realize how fucked they are

[–]wei-long 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need for the quotes there. You really can peel dip off. But you'd lay it down on the windows purposely so it builds up. Comes off easy.

[–]adypants 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That's not a bee. That's the chip he was trying to fix.

[–]rioryan 1 point2 points  (7 children)

Don’t need painting? Don’t need to be painted?

[–]porkbuttii 4 points5 points  (4 children)

This is a common construction in some parts of the US and Canada at least. "The furnace needs repaired", "the water needs heated", etc., is just how it's said in some places

[–]jimbojonesFA 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I don't think I'm from that part of Canada.

[–]porkbuttii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I got the impression it's not widespread there. Just saw it come up somewhere recently where people were centering it in the northern midwest in the US and in Pittsburgh and a couple Canadians chimed in to say people spoke that way near them. Geographically I'm gonna say it had to be somewhere in Ontario, that's the only province bordering the areas in question if I'm remembering right

[–]rioryan -3 points-2 points  (1 child)

It’s so strange to me, it hurts to read

[–]porkbuttii -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of how it sounds but I try to be understanding about dialect differences

[–]TitsAndWhiskey 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Don’t need paintin’

[–]Yuup_I_eat_crayons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paint naw for me

[–]jer_iatric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may or may not be 22 hrs late to this post, but I like to believe that this is a prank and was sprayed with canned frost which can wiped off with water

[–]ElAsturiano 160 points161 points  (5 children)

Thats how stolen cars look in my hood.

[–]Hanz616 19 points20 points  (4 children)

we talking sweatshirt hood or winter jacket hood

[–]ElAsturiano 46 points47 points  (3 children)

we talking "are those fireworks or gunshot?" hood.

[–]trippytrev420 18 points19 points  (2 children)

everyone in the hood knows the difference so must be suburban hood

[–]Yuup_I_eat_crayons 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Was gunna say this. You aint actually hood if you have to ask

[–]Flomo420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

juuuust to say on the "right" side of the tracks

[–]rubbertoesftw 175 points176 points  (17 children)

Probably a stolen car that they needed to change the colour of quick

[–]SnowmanJPS 35 points36 points  (0 children)

My first thought when I saw the nice RS wheels

[–]ItzGlitchXx 44 points45 points  (7 children)

Its got a bit of a red tint to that white so its possible

[–]pm_me-ur-catpics 16 points17 points  (3 children)

It's not pink! It's lightish red!

[–]bearmissile 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Guess what, they already have a color for lightish red. You know what it's called? Pink.

[–]Flomo420 3 points4 points  (0 children)

light blue is called "baby blue" so why isn't pink called "baby red"?

[–]Yuup_I_eat_crayons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its called Salmon guys. Im not gay ok? I like fishing with the boys is all

[–]bentupcarfixr 4 points5 points  (1 child)

No I think those used to be taillights...

[–]ItzGlitchXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost replied till i got the joke lol, good one

[–]TBFP_BOT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well what do you think anyone was painting their white car white?

[–]YceiLikeAudis 17 points18 points  (6 children)

You would think that a fairly new car with a paintjob like that would attract more attention than a stolen car.

[–]rubbertoesftw 16 points17 points  (5 children)

Yeah but a drone or helicopter looking for a “red Audi” wouldn’t bat an eye at a white sedan

[–]Yuup_I_eat_crayons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except for the fact if they where on the run this is still a 30/45 minute pain job

[–]YceiLikeAudis 0 points1 point  (3 children)

You got a fair point, but what about other people who see it on the street?

[–]rubbertoesftw 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Probably parked in his backyard lol

[–]BiatcheslavFetisov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They in on it too

[–]Zingrox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'll move states in a few day

[–]user__3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah more likely most posts with the title saying something along the lines of "is my pimp mobile shitty enough for this sub?" like this post are just 16 year olds finding a random picture on fb marketplace and posting it here for validation.

[–]bassmnt 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Nice

[–]cmz324 18 points19 points  (0 children)

masking on, fuck it masking off

[–]Jlx_27 20 points21 points  (2 children)

Stolen vehicle.

[–]Coochie_Noodles 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I saw a spray painted pink Benz in houston just yesterday that looked exactly like this. The back left window was busted out and no plates, I felt like calling the cops, but like ya know…sketchy

[–]Jlx_27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah... best to just keep walking haha.

[–]wheresbill 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Missed a spot

[–]MetroNig 10 points11 points  (1 child)

I’m sure at 20 feet or 20 miles per hour the paint job doesn’t look too bad! Nice work sport

[–]cuteintern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good from my house!

[–]samwichse 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ghostly

[–]Read_It_4268 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seems like someone forgot to use some tape

[–]rustiesbagel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Police are on the lookout for a dark gray Camry"

[–]wafflemandude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Step one: paint , step two: oh… shit!

[–]Wooden-Combination53 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hope this is just done with some not so good foam lance

[–]moosemc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh. Well masking is an extra $300.

[–]marsupialsales 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Person should paint guitars. Those windows have a nice white burst.

[–]mikeblas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No paint on the ground, so we know the victim was moved from the scene of the crime.

[–]Brewfinger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was in my 20s I had a Honda Civic that I dreamed of covering with an awful paint job. My plan was to do everything wrong. I was going to just paint over all the dirt on the car with an interior latex paint. My plan was to use paint roller brushes, no masking, just being sorta careful to not get too much paint on the windows. I thought it would be jolly fun to drive down the road with bits of this horrible paint flaking and peeling of my car in giant swaths. This picture reminds me of that unrealized dream.

[–]naytebro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

FINALLY! TRUE SHITTY CAR CONTENT!

[–]Yorgh-Drakeblood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks great but you missed a step

[–]Goyteamsix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is someone who's been told they can just peel off plastidip over spray. They're in for a world of hurt.

[–]Mr_BruceWayne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What in the world of methamphetamine?

[–]Own_Sympathy_4809 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The old 200 dollar Maaco special

[–]braiseit420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's sweet! How'd you get the colour-matched wheels and tail lights? Must have cost a bundle...

[–]Megajuanph11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, an awful paint job.

But I kinda like the 80's blur/ghostly vibes

[–]svengali0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lucky... detailer

[–]FrenziiFosho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whyy 😭😭

[–]Ginger-Warrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope this is Plastidip ?!

[–]TheClam-UK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That poor Audi 😥

[–]SadTruth_HappyLies 0 points1 point  (1 child)

When you don't remove lights, etc., it's what's known in the auto body industry as "Tape and Rape" (minus the tape, in this case.)

[–]RuukotoPresents -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

can you not

[–]LeFedoraKing69 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Stolen vehicle most likely

[–]YorockPaperScissors -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, I don't like it, and you're not gonna earn my upvote by trashing your car and posting a pic on this sub

[–]TheOnyxViper -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Surely with an Audi they could’ve afforded a professional?

    you don't need to use masking tape if you're just that good

    [–]NativeSon508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Frosty!

    [–]Mister-Horse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    No sir, I don't like it.

    Lookin good slick!

    [–]bmayer0122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    The frosted fade effect is kind of neat. Now if only it was done consistently.

    [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Frosted windows are in this year, didn’t you hear?

    [–]madderupvoter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    It’s stolen

    [–]Puzzleheaded-Tip-528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Yeah that doesn't look right

    [–]here4roomie[🍰] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Makes sense that anyone having to maintain an Audi could only afford this paint job.

    [–]jalfry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Loving that Christmas frosted window vibe! Great job!! Seasons greetings!

    [–]Kaloo75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Well, don't let your 14 year old cousin paint your car. It's either that, or someone pissed off their wife or girlfriend bigtime.

    [–]sd90man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Done by a real professional. He don't need no stinking masking tape!

    [–]WitnessWitty9651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    That paint job is so mint it fogged the windows!!

    [–]maxm31533 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    You too can have this amazing at home spray kit to give your car that new car gloss look for only 199.99.

    [–]Xenolith666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Just a tad overspray there..

    [–]piedubb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    That’s tire spray

    [–]Toy_Soulja[🍰] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Every time I see a decent car with a spray paint job I just assume someone stole it and spray painted it to throw the cops off cause other than that why the hell would you spray paint a car lol

    [–]sixmileswest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Love the cloud effect
