In addition to putting you behind the wheel of some pretty awesome cars, Gran Turismo Sport also comes with one feature that everybody loves: you can build your very own liveries and then share them with others.
In other words, if you always dreamed about becoming a car designer but never had the chance to make this happen, Gran Turismo Sport allows you to customize any model in your garage just the way you want.

And someone has spent probably quite a lot of time to create this so-called “barn find” 2017 Ford GT livery that comes with an impressive attention to details.

Just like a typical barn find, this skin includes scratches, chips, and rust spots, and the designer says the whole thing “took a while” without sharing an other details on this.

But of course, while designing a GTS livery is something that anyone who owns the game can do, creating something that looks this good obviously takes time, and above all, a little imagination to make the skin overall fit the car like a glove.

If you want to download the livery in Gran Turismo Sport and use it for your 2017 Ford GT, you can find it on this page.

Meanwhile, the designer says they are already looking into further improvements for the weather livery that would improve the barn find look even more.

Might try to do a more ‘true’ weathering where bits of carbon fiber are exposed through paint chipping,” they say in a post on reddit where the livery was shared. “I was going to do it on the next attempt!” they continue when commenting on a request for a matte finish. “Problem I find is that the matte finish is a little too dull for some of the decals or paint. I’ll definitely play with it though.

Of course, a 2017 model is barely a barn find right now, but given it’s a game we’re talking about here, the skin is something that many people would just enjoy having on their GTS Ford GT.
