Default New Paint (56k Take a hike)

Well I did a $55 paint job.. my car is spray painted but you cant tell that much by looking at the pictures. i still need to wash the car because there is paint dust on the roof. but other than that it looks good and yes i am getting another center tail light peice the one that is on there is temp for now.




















Big thanks to a friend for the use of his garage. We finished this at 5am. After running out of paint, and an hr drive @ 12am to the nearest store that had the paint we needed.

Throw some camo leaves on there! Not bad for a rattle can job though and good job on flipping off the D15B2 .

I know that you said positive comments only but....


That engine bay just looks plain horrible. Thats one of the shittiest places i've seen a siren put.


But on to positive, honestly for $55 that looks pretty darn good. Nice job with the can.

Looks good, I like that olive drab color.

Also digging the "I love my honda 30 MPG" Save money on gas and put it towards the car.

the paint looks good but if you spent them time painting it you should have done some of the body work

Why you do that to a gold car

not bad for a rattle job, but for real why did you ruin the OG gold paint?

The car would probably look better if you painted the bottom half of the bumper...like a DX or Si

Do some camo...I wish I could show you the pics of my old one from 2000...it looked pretty mean I gotta find them and scan them in

i wanted to paint the bottom of the bumpers but it was 5 am when we finished with what we got done, oh and the Car is a Dx... There is going to be Camo, my Valve cover is going to be Camo,the reason i didn't fix the rust is because the car had to be out of the garage by sunrise, and i only wanted to spend under $60 to paint it. I actualy have 3 full cans of paint left.... I like my color choices.

I done that with the heat of the motor the glue of the tape would melt and the tape would fall of I ended up moving the battery in the rear

Nice work, I like the black hood and roof, I would do that to my car if my paint was worse and I didn't care about spraying over it but I would do the little piece on the hatch between the glass and tailights and have it go all teh way across the car. I hate have non painted bumpers like yours.
