Eh, once I get back in town the first thing I'm doing is saving towards getting my almond cream wagon painted, if I get the paint done for around $600 I roughly have about half already from my stimulus check. Once that is done I will get new rims and tires. But for now I have brand new tires for the LS mesh, as well as good tires on them. So I'm in no rush, but really want new ones.

Yea, I'm not getting mine for another week or two. But I will be out of state from the 12th-15th, so I'm in no rush. I'm making a custom hitch for my wagon to pull a pop up camper for a motorcycle behind it.

Hell yea, I love having spare rims for my car, even if they are stock 13's. I repainted them and they came out nice. I'm just going to put my nice stocks on the other wagon since they have brand new tires.

^^ MARC, hopefully my brother explained to you why i got walked all over...

anyways thanks for the comments man, i like the way it looks but man the black hood doesnt do it for me..i miss my OEM blue one...

also i am still using the tiny piping..the muffler flange broke so i kinda fixed it, but when vtec bangs it disconnects and the it get loud again.. i might be doing the RSR exmag for the muffler, still debating on it though!

thanks bro!

A lot of people use model car spray paint used to paint turn signal. It's a transluscent(sp?) orange color. thgen you wetsand and buff it so it's not grainy.

i used tamiya clear orange spray paint i got from my local hobby store. it was $4 a can. they also make clear smoke, clear yellow,clear blue and clear plum. any ways i washed the corner and bumpers. let them dry. then layed 10 super light coats. letting ech coat dry for 2 hours before applying a new one. if you do light coats no need to sand and buff. just dont turn you bathroom into a paint booth or youll get an orange ring around your *** cheeks
