I think it would look really good if you painted your moldings/handles/mirrors body color, sprayed your clear corners dark amber with stained glass paint, and took off the Civic badge in the back

yea, i should be painting the moldings this weekend, and ill go from there. i was going to take off the civic badge today, but i wasn't sure if it would leave a mark or not, so i didn't do it yet. As for the clear corners, i may just put the originals back in.
can anyone help me make the pictures smaller? I dont have photoshop, and i tried taking the .jpg out of the file name like someone told me, but the picture didn't show up. help anyone

thanks, i got them pretty cheap.

aright, they are smaller now, but for some reason for me, theyre still loading pretty slow, and my cable is pretty fast. Let me know if you guys are having problems too.

the file sizes are still massive (1.5MB per image) because they are bitmap format, you need to convert them to jpeg.

I'm not a big fan of the 92-95 4 doors, but I think yours looks nice and clean.
