Re: Lopes101: 2002 civic DX coupe
Hah i have one injury already i don't need another! So i think i'll just keep my $300 
And i can't even find the time to clean my car let alone the engine bay... but as soon as i can find that time i will paint mine, they look goooooood! But i haven't decided on the colour

Ya its really relaxing just scrubbing away, good time spent with my car. Choose a colour you really like, I love red, so I went with that. Not gonna lie it would be cool to see something sweet like orange or something! damn.. now im wishing I did that,

I love my car too, but there's dents on it from stupid hit and runs which really upsets me. i wish people could own up to their ****.

Yep I have a few dents, a nice on on driver side fender, and a couple dings from doors in parking lots on my driver side. gets me really excited. I very much appreciate when people leave a paint swab on my car from theirs.

Re: Lopes101: 2002 civic DX coupe
i'd want either that "celestial blue mica" color that mazda has or like a pearl black color.. only problem with that is i'd also want the entire interior black. im not a fan of this grey interior i have.. sux. it doesnt go with anything.

Waldo is actually my buddies, he is almost 12 weeks now.I used engine enamel, so If you used high Temp, paint, That would work. Luckily for me, the 2 bottom bolts have rusted through the cover :P so I only needed to remove the top 2 lol. When you are taking the clip off of that cable coming from the cat (I think thats what it is?) remove it by prying the clip on the BOTTOM first, I spent about 10-15 trying to get this thing off.
@kenny I definitely bought some more last night because I love LEDs lol.
