Default Updated pics of my civic...

As some of you may recall i posted a couple pictures a couple months ago....well after seeing the 50 dollar paint job i took a stab at it with some added new parts being front and rear bumpers...jdm thin side mouldings...spoon knock off mirrors and a new lip....
this is the original posted pics...

and yes it had bubbles on the side also had a genie on the hood that is y i needed to get rid of the paint...

all sanded down..

Damn, looks good for $50

I was wondering what was going on with the windshield. Put that $hit together and get some real pics
