I just thought some people here might be interested in seeing this. I used Duplicolor Milano red touch-up paint to paint the letters of my subframe brace. The new bottles of touch-up have ball-point pen type tips that make it really easy to fill in the letters. It worked pretty well, but I had to wipe the tip with isopropanol every minute or two to keep the paint flowing and I had to use the brush a little on the last letter.

Mine took about 10 min. and cost about $5 it came out really clean -- you'd never know it wasn't painted by the factory. Otherwise all it takes is a little care and a steady hand.

I like the way it looks on the car. Just thought I'd throw this out there to anyone who's interested.

 

looks great, i like it

 

i like it good discovery

 

wow! awesome!

 

looks good man. diggin it.

 

nice

 

yea its a nice touch!

 

Came out clean.

 

bump for originality

 

Thanks! I'm happy with it. It looked weird when the brace was off the car and my wife was kind of WTF, but when it's on the car it ties together nicely I think (she agrees). I also like it because I don't think I've ever seen it before.

BTW if anyone's looking for an ASR install on a DC2, I posted one in the Integra forum:

looks fresssh !!!! another then the stock lca's

 

looks pretty good. conservative. cant say i would do it, but it doesnt look bad.

 

Looks really good. I would've done a differnet color than the car just to have a little contrast, but it looks cool anyway.

 

Good find, This reminds me of the free DIY threads we used to have all the time on here back in the day.

 

I like it because it's cheap and subtle but it gives my car a little bit of individuality. I also like using my artistic skills on little DIY things when I can. I was torn between black and red but I went with red because I thought it might be nice to bring some of the body color down into the suspension bits.

I'm gonna clean and paint my LCA's (and other suspension bits) black when I replace the bushings this spring, but I'm keeping the stock LCAs because they get the job done and I'd rather spend my limited cash for the car on performance parts and not bling parts!

 

im liking it
