Yeah. I’ve never been a fan of the whole candy fade thing TBH.
Rub vinegar on the head tube badge every few days if you want to speed up the initial surface rusting to get it to match quicker. Getting the initial covering of surface rust is what usually takes a while…. Once it’s got that though it will age on its own through use pretty quick.

Your bike is where I got the ideas from! I’m actually quite impressed how authentic they managed to make it look after doing so many fade paint jobs.
The headtube badge is untreated steel so it will go rusty eventually, another Caren’s handiwork.
