Default new car...new paint job

i just got this 93 civic ex and it was three shades of primer grey. the body kit was all cracked and broken to ****. the side skirts were held on with wood screws and nail. just yesterday i painted it and removed the side skirts. the paint job cost me under 30 bucks. how does it look?? decent?? take a guess wut i paid for this car. it has intake and exhaust on it right now. srry if its the wrong section, thx neways.

You have a ton of work to go, the bumpers and the headlights have to go. I would basically take the car apart completely and start from there. You need not worry about body parts yet but get that suspension built up and then onto your motor. Theres just so much more to building a car then what you have going on. The car needs help in a really bad way, read all the threads you can and get an understanding of everything you want to do, and start from there. I have seen some dope *** ferios, so take your time and build you car the right way. Good luck with your car man, be sure to post update pics as you go along.

Everyone has their own likings. He should not HAVE to look OE or JDM. What he wants is what he wants.

Yeah, we may not like it at all, but maybe he does.
But for the love of god. Clean it up a bit.

I know you got it cheap, but I got my sedan for $900, for being almost 20 years old, it is a helluva lot better than what you picked up.

Coilovers (brand name or not)
Nice paintjob
New mouldings for everything
Carbon Hood
Maybe some JDM Ferio parts??


Simple yet effective!!!!
