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.

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.
