Great job! Its always nice to see someone rescue a honda from certain death, and make it shine agian! And you did all the work yourself which makes it that much better. Congrats on a job well done.

YES!!!!!

Someone who does their own work. I don't care if it comes out half as good as the body shop would have done, you get massive respect from me for effort! It looks good now. The orange was actually kind of neat though in a weird way.

Nice work.

looks good man. i started learning bodywork this summer, hard work, but it's satisfying. what color are you gonna spray it? i'm looking into trading my rex for a 92 hatch that needs a little bodywork, so i'm thinking of just spraying it primer black. i guess that way if i get pulled over i can explain my missing interior by saying it's at the interior shop? hehe.

keep up the good work, looks clean.

this is what i say to primer domestics "Does that primer make you go faster?" i got this quote off a guy that has a couple of mildy modded 69 camaros that run 11's-12's street trim all around

how many cans of black primer did it take to do your car? Was it hard sanding/primering the car?
