Default IPGParts.com Camo Civic Built on a Whim

What do you do when you get a cheap Civic and have some nice parts laying around? Well get $50 worth of Spray Paint and make it a lot cooler.

We recently acquired this Civic and the immediate idea was to build it into a Chump Car. We of course knew we wanted a Camouflage Theme so that was the first step working with the car. $50 worth of Camo Spray Paint later we actually like it even more than when we got it with its basic Gloss Green paint job. Plans changed briefly as we happened to have a set of CCW LM5 16″ Wheels at the shop and some Function and Form Coilovers. Might as well throw them on and see what it looks like right?? Of Course !!!

So in the matter of a day we transformed a plain jane 2000 Honda Civic into at least what one could call personalized. And we like it a LOT !!!!

We will be using it as our parts runner for a bit and Chump Car Plans are still being tossed around with it, we will see where it goes.

Doesn't look too bad, but to pull off the camo look, its got to be a serious car.

It will be cool when its sitting at true race car status(gutted, caged, race tires), imo.

Presentation is very important for any company. Please paint the car properly and then write it off as a business expense, like a real professional would.

I do my best not to hate but, this is what I see

"Oh yay! my cold air intake, altezzas and replica type-r style lip just arrived direct from ipg"

Lets be honest, if it wasn't for those ccw's this thread would get ugly pretty quickly. With that being said, nice wheels.
