Default White Diamond RSX almost done!

Went to check out the car and all the dents are filled up and car is sanded and stripped. Updates will come soon along with pics!


Check List:
* White Diamond paint job (05 cadillac escalade) including door jams and engine bay
* Metallic Bronze with flakes painted rims.
* Camber kit, install and align (I already have gc's)
* New Windshield (original one is cracked)
* DIY blacked out headlights (did it myself and it looks awesome)

....and not paying a penny for the work - PRICELESS

Edit
Car should be done in about another week hopefully. Anyways my bro is probably going to trade me his wheels for mine. I think it's going to looks sexy especially with the white. Here are the pics below. Tell me if you love/hate them?


They are 18's btw, with 225/40 tires. Previous wheels were also 18's and those are being professionally repainted as we speak.

Why White Diamond and not PWP?

Because you can buy an rsx that's PWP. That would defeat the whole purpose of doing a custom paint.

Definitely a big difference. I am a painter, and I see colors all day long. The Acura pearl white doesnt have as much pearl as the Cadillac, so you will definitely know its not a PWP when you see it rolling. Personally, if I was going to do a paint complete, I would go Champ White most definitely.
