honestly if you polished the rims up, fixed the drop, respray the front bumper and detail the whole thing it would be pretty clean

im gonna be painting it next friday like a darker candy green and im trying to get konig b bombs, Jmags, or rota flashbacksin either polished, bronze, or white with red lugs

[DelSolSweetie]

first.. candy green.. well its your car

are you at least going to do it properly? Strip the entire car and get EVERYTHING painted.. or will the bay, doors, interior, trunk, seals etc still be red



just noticed the hood pins are not even? is that some JDM trend i'm missing or could the previous owner not measure http://www.hondaforums.com/public/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif

lol def not jdm he just eyeballed it...badly lol but its whatever, and im not 100% on the color i buddy just threw it out there and the way i pictured it its would look good how i want it set up, i either want a ebp paint, emerald green with gold flake (or with regular flake) or sprayed the same color idk yet im still looking around seeing what i like i still got 2 weeks b4 paint

and it wont be completly stripped but we will get the jams and ill paint the bay when i pull the motor this winter, im keeping all the moldings and seal black just goinf to refinish them

I'd just respray the same color.. if you really want flake you can put some in.. its a PITA to color change and most people don't do it right

[C92hatchX]

i dont think i have the color code though, can paint shops match it with out the code?

just look it up


put in the year, make, model and just leave the color name blank.. it'll pop up a list with all the colors and codes

[C92hatchX]

sweet thanks

[DelSolSweetie]

ALSO

I wouldnt get a one stage paint.. it will not match the orignal color


friend of mine had a burgandy accord, he had the local paint shop "mix" the "oem" color but in one stage cause it was cheaper... came out sunburst orange vs burgandy


I think its mainly the paint shop's fault, then the rest of the fault lies with friend and painter

What should I get it in?

[DelSolSweetie]

base coat and clear coat lol

up to you and your painter though (assuming you fully trust your painter.. which you should)

your local paint shop will know WAY more then i do on what would be better.. I think it comes down to personal opinion more then anything..

i like super shiny though.. so i say 2 stage
