Default Just got out of the paint booth! (fresh a$$ 97 R warning)

Well, im really excited because I just got the R out of paint today. I still have to throw on the bumpers and a few other little things that still need to be ordered (bolts, badges, decals, etc.) I know i should have waited till it was done, but im just really psyched. here are a few of the pics











beat up stock rims...maybe new rims in the future??? we'll see


what do ya think? love it? hate it? oh, and no, its not a GSR, its real

see ya'll at expo. if your coming up through indiana, let me know, i need a caravan im only about an hour and a half away

well, it was a georgia/florida car and the sun did its duty. plus i wanted to get this thing looking puurdy, because previous owners were not as nice to it as they should have been.

new paint looks great.....i probably would have removed the sunroof before paint to bring back it's originality. No biggy, though. As long as you like it
