Owner here.

Just wanted to post an update on the car in question:

I see they're already regretting the decision to use UFC referees in the Olympics.

Awesome.

NYTimes ran a story on this, citing the Jalopnik item and quoting Spinelli.

I would really hate to have my car parked next to this guy while he over sprays paint all over my car because he is too cheap to go to a paint booth

Cap well and truly doffed good sir. Welcome to the flat black club.

Lucky he wrapped it. The neighbors might not have enjoyed the isocyanates.

A "self cleaning" oven will incinerate glop from an engine block. Don't ask me how I know.

Well played. (stands and begins slow clap)

Good freakin' job considerin'. Hat's off.

This guy is completely nuts on so many levels.

Nice car. Too bad r3vlimited is filled with douchebags.

But what about his lungs? in an enclosed tiny space?

Welp, I've got no excuses anymore, except money.

Ugh do me now

Where there's a will there's a way. Nice job. It looks pretty good.

Quote of the day! "No wife, no problem."

Goddamnit, Jalopnik, stop reminding me how much of a Jalopnik I'm not.

I now feel like I have no excuse for putting off any project.

This is worthy of a Real Men of Genius spot.
