Im getting my Integra painted Milano red again, but I had some questions I thought I might ask..

- Should I paint my mirrors?
- Should I paint my moldings?
- Just the middle ones or the side sills too?
- Should I put an R33 front bumper..

Or any other suggestions would be cool.. I was thinking of doing the R33 front bumper and going wingless..

Also, its stock tint, Is it just like normal tint , can I just peel it off? Or is it in the window or something..

here is a picuter as it is right now (minus the goofy banner and monster gay tach)..

 

Paint the whole car red, the moldings left black will make it look like a giant bumper car. Then again thats my two cents.

 

Yeah cool. I just didnt know if I should get the bottom ones painted . But now that I thiink about it, with everything red, that will look cheesy. thanks man

If i were you i would get all your **** painted red(as in stock sideskirts and side molding)it will look so much better trust me......and make sure to tell whoever paints the car that to paint the sideskirts you have to degrease them and then prime em(dont quote me on that i just know that you cant just paint em cuase of the material)...but yeah get all that black **** painted and get a front lip(urethane)and you should be straight

 

I agree on painting it all red. It's gonna look much better

Alright, if anybody knows about this oxidation thing this guy is talking about, let me know. Also I was planning on doing VIS - CF Hood and Lip .. if I didnt get the bumper (R33)..
thanks dude..

 

So after the paint problems solved... CF hood and LIp.. or CF hood and OEM lip..

 

After all this descussion a friend of mine came up with this idea..

- Painted mirrors, moldings..
- CF hood and lip

and a nice Spearco Intercooler..

 

^^^^^^^^^yup, thats the way i would do it everything all red

 

Alright perfect, thanks guys..

 

Shave the side moldings and emblems, that will look sickkkk

Yeah but any slight mishap with the bodyshop and my moldings would be noticeable, this way even if someone bumps my car it will just scratch the paint and not dent the car.. moldings are staying.

I do, but its hard at school. I have to park close because people do **** to the cars..

but Im not a big fan of shaved moldings, sorry..

 

i'd get carbon fiber hood, lip, and mirrors.

 

The tint can be a bitch to take off, especially the rear window. You have to like heat it up and peel it off

 

Well Insted of taking classes for highschool, I have a focus program where I do hours in a workplace in return for credits, and I work at a speed shop. I do tints and take off tints from time to time so thats not a problem. I was just trying tosee if it would look cleaner with no tint..

1) ITRs come withOUT moldings- take the risk and get them shaved!
2) Do NOT go with the R33 Bumper!!
3) Spearco intercooler , hate to tell you but you might want a TURBO kit to go w/ the intercooler.. interFOOLERS!!

1. I dont want to make an LS look like an ITR, becuase its non-vtec and Im not a cheese ball..

2. Spearco Intercooler was a joke and its not like I can put a picture of a turbo under the hood with this view..

3. Im not gona get the r33 anymore

 

everything!!!!!

 

haha you have convinced me haha

 

just make sure to prep the moldings mirrors etc real well because mine were painted a year ago and its already starting to chip...bodyshop must of rushed the whole prep process on those parts
