a3 corsa is niet te ratten imo.
Het idd zo dat hoe ouder de auto hoe mooier het is om te ratten, maar er zijn ook genoeg nieuwe auto's die een ratlook hebben..
En ratlook is HHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLL breed.
Drift Rat's are generally RWD drifting machines like the Nissan Silvia/200SX, 180SX,Mazda RX-7 BMW 3-Series. and so on that are used for their main purpose which in turn can lead to a very abused example on the outside. Typically to understand the look, just refer to any Anime/Manga post-nuclear film whereby the characters drive their Asian styled machines. You get the jist I hope.
Nu-rat is a term used for reasonably modern cars that are ratted to a mediocre degree (rusted bonnets on near immaculate paintwork elsewhere on the car, retro graphics and vinyl, easily removable items etc). They tend to also share a lot of styling hints from the Euro/Dubbin' scene like deep dish wheels, coilovers and so on.
Track Rat styling is quite simple. Your aim is to have a mechanically sound vehicle for track usage, with no real care on the looks side of things. Typically you'll see overspray, dents galore, race slips, numbered vinyl designs on steelies or performance based alloys with the lights taped up. Go for scruffy with a stripped interior that you're probably half way there already
OAP+ is not the most common of styling methods. Take something that would be considered an old codgers car, for example a Rover Metro or Renault 5 Campus in pristine condition, leave it as it is other than a huge slam and ideally a better engine hiding under the bonnet, then fill it with your typical OAP accessories, picnic rug, walking stick, national trust stickers and so on... It's one of my favourite styles as you can't get anymore stealth effect with very random looks to boot!.
Rice Rat's are simply 80's and 90's Japanese cars (normally Honda, Toyota, Nissan and Suzuki makes) that have simply been ratted. The popular term "rice/ricer" dotted around various forums aims towards Western people who have a Japanese car (import) that they modify in a purely cosmetic way and make the car seem like something it actually isn't. An Example being a 1.6 Honda Integra DC2 with Type R stickers and badges and go faster Spoon/Mugen stickers for added effect. Purely a comedy term, the ratters have picked it up and use it also now.
Army / Military Rat
Army rat's are typically matt green or grey (Nato Green is the most popular colour) that have smashed through an army supplies store and came out the other side looking pretty unique. Camo netting, world war paraphernalia, empty tank shells or blank shotgun shells, bullet holes, Nazi emblems, flags, gas masks and much more besides. Attention to details is a fond favourite to this style. Gradually more and more of the 'Desert theme' is also being implemented into the army rat style as well! One of the best bits of this theme is that any car suits the military styling methods.
