Does not need tech this is 92-00 Civic talk. I think the OP just wanted to show off the repairs and see if there was anything to help the color mismatch. No there is not you should have painted the whole car or blended the new rear fenders into the doors when you did the paint.

well... great job! you brought her back to life. i'm still amazed that people in the east coast have to do all that rust repair. i couldn't think of hacking up my fenders or quarter panels. i guess that's why we have to pay a premium to live in socal.

Really? You are the most worthless person here. Do you even have a Honda or do you just like to post "No tech" over and over again.

Looks good but you should have just painted the entire car.
