I was contacted a little while ago by Gilbert of Scraped Crusaders. He told me about the blog that him and a few of his like-minded buddies started up. I gave it a look and liked what I saw. I enjoy enthusiast driven periodicals and the Scraped Crusaders are doing pretty well so far. It also helped that Gilbert showered me in lavish gifts like a six pack of Irish Spring soap and two boxes of 100 count plastic forks. Well one box had 99 in there, but Gilbert said he got hungry. I can’t blame the guy. *I am expecting that 100th fork in the mail, soon.*
Seriously.
Anyway, after I saw the blog and everything they had on there so far, I saw Gilbert’s pretty kickin’ ’98 Legacy Wagon. This thing has style.
He calls this mistress, “Purple Drank.” Fitting I would say. Purple Drank is rolling on VW Jetta Wolfsburg BBS rims, in purple. Gilbert hinted at a slight fetish for purple. I can’t judge the man though, I too have a thing for purple (I long for a purple xB). Gilbert wants to eventually rock a plaid purple interior; I approve.
Gilbert and his buddies are doing big things, head over and check them out. I think Gilbert is also easily bribed with purple things, just saying.
Wowzer, rocking a mid school subaru, NICE.
It’s amazing how you can make factory wheels look so good.
Thanks guys. Yes Rustoleum Deep Purple rust spray goes along way.
Rustoleum Deep Purple…
Tell us your kidding. They look damn good for a spray can.
Agreed Boost, they look awesome for a rattle can job.

I have a few chips. But for $200 for 2 peice rims (in bad condition that I had to sandblast), $80ish for primer, paint and sandpaper, I really can’t complain. $300 for custom painted 2 peice rims. I’ll just touch it up every once in a while. Alot of people are surprised when I tell them it’s rustoleum paint, which i painted on my balcony. 🙂
