Default Show off original paint

This is my 94 Integ. 11 years old now and this is the original paint job.




I wash my car at least twice a week. I got to cuz its black, it shows everything.

if i ever get around to doing the front conversion, ill shave the moldings then. cuz i will get the car repainted at the point. but until that time comes, i actually kind like the side moldings, saved my car from a few dents.

you have to spend A LOT of $$$$ to get aftermarket paint equal to oem. stay with oem paint as long as you possibly can.
