Well, I picked up this car around 2 months ago now, and I feel I've made some pretty decent progress. The paint is still being finished up, some wetsanding still to go, and I have alot of things to order for her spring makeover

Anyways, here's what she was before, the day I got her, sitting next to my old baby who was taken away from me



You can see the paint is pretty bad, the picture actually hides a LOT of the defects, here's one more shot of her before I started changin things up.



And here's a quick snap of how she sits now, every bit of work on her was done by yours truly



Let me know what you think, and of course, there is much much more work to come

 

Good job!

 

badass job

 

Looks pretty good for a roller paint job, just slap some CPR's on and it'll be mint.

Man, I swear, I'm dying for those rims. The motor is gonna come first, tho, because I'd rather save up for the real deal than buy a set of temporary track rs.

Hah, trust me man, I can't imagine this paint job ever costing $50. Mine came out to over $150

Fun place The color doesn't suit everyone, but I love it

 

Nice work. Just needs rims but you know that. Build your car for your self not honda-tech. There will always be someone who thinks you went wrong with something. IE the guys above talking about your paint color.

 

Love the color, it looks ******* sick! keep up the good work

 

ehhh.
