New paint

First time posting picks, just got it back from the body shop, was originally NHBP then change it to NH-624P (Acura TL/TSX), faded the bottom to match with the rims in bronze.

Re: New paint

Looks good, maybe the fade should have started a little higher up? that way it could be a little more noticible. But overall nice ride

Re: New paint

doesn't look much like a fade. looks more like the bottom was just painted a different colour. Nice car, but to improve the fade, it would have looked (maybe) a little nicer if the fade started a little higher, where it starts white, and gradually the bronze gets darker.

Like the paint job, but the fade could have been done a little better.

Re: New paint

yea, not feeling the fade too. it must suck if you ever decide to change rims eh? how about pics under the hood and between the door jams, that will tell how good the paint job is. also, theres lots of overspray in the wheel well areas.

Re: New paint

it looks good, instead of the fade you should've just painted the kit bronze... How muxh did it cost you? I'm looking into painting my car also.

Re: New paint

the fade isnt uniform at all. i havent liked fades in a while. i think clean breaks look a lot better. varner has a nice 2 tone. black hood, roof, and trunk and the rest is white.

Re: New paint

It looks kinda like someone did a bad masking job. If you like it, great, but I agree with everyone else. Shoulda just painted the kit without the fade or gone all white.
