Thanks Guys

ok here are pics of the body work...did some cut and weld(sorry no pics of that) and some dent pull and fill...







so i put the 1st coat of primer









i decided to look for high points before i put another coat on it






















Ok this is the rear filler and i took the key hole and shaved it off cause it was busted anyways...

 

So you're doing a satin-style paint?

I'm interested...

 

yea man...im gonna try to get it done soon...keep you guys posted

 

I really wanna see how a satin red EF looks. Good luck, looks like you know what you're doing.

 

yea man im really excited about it...i just need to go and pick up some more reducer and a hardner to finish it off...ill keep you posted...btw its my 1st time with body work and paint...good to have friends and honda tech...lol

 

my GF caught me in the garage the other day...







I was mixing some primer...

 

Yes! I thought you gave up!

Awesome.

 

took a break for a bit but went back to it...im gonna lay the color down soon

 

Maybe I'm the only one into Ref EF's, lol.

 

i guess

 

What's the status? I'm dying for some pix of this.

I'm thinking with some freshly painted black bumpers and mouldings it would look awesome!

 

im painting the bumpers but not any moldings on the car...i dont like painted moldings...im gonna lay the color soon...will take pics soon

I don't mean painted as in color matched, I mean painted black to look like they are factory fresh. They get faded grey after a while...

 

progress looks good, and nice body work btw.

in for news and pics.

 

Updates?

 

sorry guys its been awhile since i posted pics...im trying to make some time to lay the color down...i will post pics of the secound coat of primer before i paint it....
