Would you do THIS for a new sub?

AD offers you a new sub 41, any combo besides precious metal. But you have to get this on your back. What say you?

That's legitimately one of the most poorly executed tattoos I've ever seen. Unbelievably bad.

It's unusual, because most poor artists stick to smaller work. You don't often see something so horrible in that size.

Cool to think that if that guy works out it will become a maxi case model!

That date wheel might not be original.

Would love a body suit, yet prefer the classic style.

i might consider it .. but not for a SS sub .

it would have to be a rainbow daytona in WG .. or perhaps that diamond/emerald DD that mark wahlberg rocks.

The bottom right lug appears to have been over polished to me so I would have to pass thanks.

He's likely single and will be for the rest of his life. Not by choice.

The picture's inaccurate. He looks like a no-date kind of guy.
