Well as you can see, the old paint went to **** so finally got around to painting it.
i've always loved Supersonic Blue Pearl and since i couldn't get my GSR in that color i decided since the civic was blue, might as well do it.
Here's the result...



Yes, i know the black still looks crappy, and i'm planning on fixing them this weekend...but what's best... Forever Black or painting them myself? any suggestions are appreciated.
Here's the full album

is that your project car or sumthin sergio? or a beater daily driver?

 

daily driver, GSR sucks up expensive gas and 70 miles a day oWnZ m3.
but even in a beater you don't want to drive around ****

 

nice beater

my gsr=my beater and project car
daily driven 150 miles a day

 

Bahahah that's sick dood!

 

how much did u pay for the job?

 

Looks good man..but how come you didnt have them spray the bumpers?
Scared of rock chips?

 

it looks a lot better man. keep up the good work.

 

Thanks guys!
to answer some questions... i didn't have them do the bumpers cuz i think i can do them myself and save some cash, just not sure what to use yet...

and it cost a little under $600, which includes prep, paint, getting rid of oxidation, correct code match, clear coat, and 4 year warranty.

Believe it or not, it was done at Maaco but i have to say they did a great job! no overspray at all, and only one very small imperfection which they said they will fix no problem.

 

nice paint job

 

thanks, pics don't even do it justice in person the color is great! little darker than supersonic blue on GSRs but still has same color and effect. i it lol

just need to find a SSBP GSR to park next to to compare

 

looks sweet man. why didn't they paint the bumper?

now your beater is looking better than your Saturday CAR oOOoo. j/m with ya

 

Sorry but it looks better before. That color just doesn't flow.

I used to have those rims. I loved the.

 

im savin up right now to buy a little beater CRX for daily driving.. my 240 uses like $200 - $250 a month in gas.. i figure a CRX HF would take like $30 - $35, i just hope i can find one with AC.. this summer is gonna be hot..

 

D0P3!

 

Looks good, congrats !!!

 

Looks good! Let me know if your interested in a 90' whole front end for that car (Hood, bumper,fender, headlights, clr corners, clr bumpers, si lip....i think thats everything). $200 picked up. My front bumper is the newer 90' style and i added an Si front lip

Old pics of front end.

 

Thanks guys

MTK, yea HF's are great. My bro used to have one.
