Default HELP installing WW RS kit on CRX! Looking for someone to help paint in the NH/VT/ME/MA area!

Alright, well here is the question.. can someone list the best ways to degrease/sand down the urethane body kit before its painted?

Also, currently i have a body kit on my crx that is a copy of the WW RS kit, and the side skirts and door caps are molded onto the car, should i take them off anyways and put on the WW ones?

If i want to mold them again, what should i use?

Im going to need to paint my car soon, is there anyone in the NH/VT/ME/MA area that would be willing to help me, i dont have alot of money, mostly just lookin for someone to help me out and teach me some **** about painting cars..I dunno what i would have to offer you, but im sure we could figure something out, i just want my car to look good, and not like **** from trying to paint it myself (1st time) outside.

Thanks!

Well first, im redoing all this work because the front and rear bumper are totally fucked.. not to mention they are fiberglass right now. Also, i already have a DOHC ZC with intake/header/exhaust, and i dont really want to do anymore work to the motor right now. So now i just need someone to answer the questions i did ask.

well i don't know body work too well, but i would think you would be out of your mind to take off the already molded door caps and skirt. That would just be a total waste of time...unless they were cracked up and needed to come off. if they are fine just leave them on. it will save you tons of sanding and alot of sweat just to leave them on.

just swap the bumpers.

werd, i think im just going to install the front and rear bumper and repaint the car. I wish i could get a paint match on the color i have right now, but i think it would have to be custom mixed, does anyone know how much this costs? Thanks!

BTW mason, i see that you spin =] Im learning how to right now, been doing it for about 6 months or so, i think ive actually seen you spin before =]
