Default Painting my teg (restart of older post)

Well the paint job is finished. But first since the post I originally started has been deleted here are some of the pics through the enitre process. Me and my friends did the paint. Basically we did it because no one wanted ot touch the engine bay or go to the extent we did in tearing it apart. (the orginal post started with if anyone had ever masked an engine bay before.)

Sorry about the pics being off. I exceeded my photobucket bandwidth. Here is a link to the pictures


The engine is being rebuilt. Better pics of the car will be posted soon. Also the rims are being painted Gunmetal.
Also engine bay pics will be up.

nice job man

but you have a "Type R" sticker on your car, and you only have 4 lugs with fat fives....

edit: it so HARD to get sarcasm to sound right on the internet thats why i put quotes on the word, and also a "" smiley.

NICE JOB though

Ok You guys probably are't hype on the GSR sticker I made so don't sweat it. Please only chime on that if you like it otherwise I will just assume you hated it and it is rice.

Secondly I will be paiting the rims a Gunmetal.

Third... After the rims are painted and the engine is finished it's rebuild this week I will do a photoshoot with the car and after it is broken in get it tuned and dynoed and post it all together!

Looks good man. I'm sure you'll catch hell for that sticker like you said though as long as its on there. I know I'm not feeling it. I would suggest getting an OEM GS-R badge and putting it on the back where the "DOHC VTEC" sticker was at originally. But you like it, thats all that matters right?

i don't remember asking anyone's opinion on the sticker.
BUT you are all entitled to it.

But once again another ignorant person didn't read my post.

can't expect every comment to be a nut riding one. learn to take criticism

sticker and wheels aren't my cup of tea but if you like 'that style' than for you.
