Here's my work car. I shaved all emblems, trunk lock and the best part was the entire side body molding. There was like a 1/2" long valley that it ran down for the entire length of the car. I thought the molding just stuck to the side but the sheetmetal actually has a channel that it embeds into. Plus there was major rust on all 4 wheelwells and a large crease dent on the front fender of the side that the pictures are on from sliding into a stop sign while i was messing around one winter :_doh: And the mirrors, handles and bottom trim of the car is factory black.

I still need to touch up the black trim around the windows and remove some overspray and sand and buff but what do you think so far. :tup: :tdown: and is it better or worse than what an original looks like with the black mirror and undertrim and body molding.

Oh yea, and i put the exhaust off my 02 EX on this 93 dx...with some minor fabrication :tup:

PS it was getting dark when i took the pic so it looks offwhite but it isnt.

almost doesnt look like a civic from the side, my brother had one just like that, i thought it was ugly with all the black on white. Not bad.

the black rear piece (behind license plate) is odd noneless, its pretty clean. the 2 holes in the front also stand out.

good start tho :tup:

yea.good call i probably should have painted the piece behind the license plate too huh. and the holes on the front wont show. I live in ohio and i have to have front plates.
