Default MY FIRST EG PROJECT

I just bought my car about two weeks ago for $2500. I bought it bone stock with a clean title. It had 71000 miles on it with a 97 cx motor. It is a car that is in great shape!!! It used to have a b16 in it but the previous owner sold the b16 and traded motors with them. So thats why it has a 97 cx motor with such low miles. But, the motor is going soon anyways. Plannin on getting a b18b1 with b16 tranny. I also have many more plans for it. But, for now my that seems fine for me. So, far i lowered it on coilovers, hx wheels that my lil brother painted bronze, c/f hood, ex lip, and the visions are coming in the mail. Hope u like my car!! Keep negative comments to urself!! I'm a cambodian on a low budget. Sorry i cant afford 5 lug, tein suspension, or mugen mf-10's. Thanks

WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR





NOW (2 weeks later)

i dont have the cans n e more but i bought it at wal-mart for like 97 cents a can. i used 2 cans, primer, and clear coat. the clear coat brought out the color the most. i used dupli color clear coat. But, the paint was some generic paint thought. I owe it to my lil bro with his integra though. he painted them for me and reminded me that bronze will bring out the teal better. He did a flawless job painting them too.

Thats what I was thinking. If they were more bronze they'd look better. But they look good with the teal.
