I have been wanting to do this since i first got my car... i completely regret not having any pictures of my civic before i sold it. so i made sure i wont do it again with my rex. im doing this a little *** backwards. my car is done now as far as body work and painting and has been for a little bit. but ive only had time to put pictures up and all that good stuff now. the car was in pretty rough shape when i got it... it was hit in the front, and the previous owner got a hood bumper/ bumper reiforcement, fender and headlight from a civic, which is obviouisly what should not have been on it.

i basically wannted a project car to put my schooling to use. i was going to NEIT for autbody. it worked out awesome because i did all the work to it including paint and everything for what i payed to go to school. i painted the car silverstone metalic from an S2K. i just got some more pictures developed that i havent got back yet that i have to put up, and i need to tak more pics of the final project. i need a CRX headlight for the drivers side thats why i dont have a corner light, and i ordered the wrong ones for the one thats on there now but wont be shortly... a lotta work has been toit within the time ive had it, i worked my *** off to get the bodywork done in time to paint, i had to weld in my own patch panels and cut out all the rust on the quarters, ive had the car since march 05 and now 8 months later i have almost a differnt car completely. im new to this image hosting so bare with me. sorry for long post

hope you like
thanks
Marc

Take them into paint, and then go to stretch/skew, take them down by 50%.
