i dunno.. paint looks good appears to be turbo which is good... rims/doors/bodykit/fenders i can do without. but looks good for show...


close your hood :)

its gonna b a cop magnet, paint job looks good, not a fan of the color, but to each their own

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

It is ORANGE,
flake is too large,
you are missing a grill,
I don't like the chrome wheels with that color,
you painted the door handles but not the mirrors???,
don't like how far the front fascia sticks out.

All in all it looks like a ricer but if you are happy, who cares what I think.

Just don't drive it like a ricer.

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

^^yea flakes are wayy to fuggin big... i dont like the wheels either... show or not.. not my cup of joe.. but to each his own.. thanks for posting tho.. A for effort


EDIT: .....while ur at it..why dont u take pics of the turbo setup.. i really hope u do have a turbo in there and not a front mounted intake..

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

Yeah I Do Have A Turbo Ill Post A Pic Up But I Warn You Now, My Engine Bay Is Ugly. Nothing Painted And Its Dirty But Ill Still Add A Pic For You To See.

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

not a fan of the dubz, (gangster talk) but the car does seem to flow well. good luck. more turbo pics =D

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

im not feeling the car dude

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

thats kool, but thanks for lookin

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

The flakes are to big. Align your bumper... it doesn't look right around the headlight.

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

you live inthe south dont you?

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

did u do it yourself?

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

The color of ur car and those chrome rims makes the intercooler look more like an INTER-FOOLER. But thumbs for doing most of the work urself dude !

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

ive never seen the charge pipe go to the right before... looks so tight. when there is so much room to the left.... dunno

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

i like the turbo along with it being a honda...=D

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

glad your not just a ricer, turbo is the way to go
looks good!, flakes are a little large, but i bet it has a wicked twinkle in the sun
+1!

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

just to answer a few peoples questions at once, yes it does sparkle good in the sun. i know the bumper is a little off, the guy who had the kit before me got lazy an just cut a big gap around the headlight on his civic. but it was a free bumper so i took it. and as for the ic pipes. i have one going both ways. i had to remove my washer fluid res., but it works. i wanted it to be a little different then everyone elses set-up. i did do all the work myself. and yes i am from the south originally. thanks for all the comments.

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

I would argue that, but his winders aren't tinted so i guess it doesn't look right. I'm thinking about putting black mirrors on mine, so the window area is black...

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

just change ur rims and it wont look ricey. get some rota slips or something. or y dont u just put bak the ex rims. it would be way better. stay away from chrome!!!!!

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

thanks for all the opinons so far. to each their own

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

idk....I'd put some black 17s on it to set off the bright paint color. Then youre set.

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

thats an awesome color man, flakes maybe to big but thats just based on that one pic. i say get some darker rims too, make the color a little less bright but focus more the attention on it, and maybe get a dark grill. and since the bumper was free, invest in a new one. maybe something a little less bulky and one that goes with the color, not really feeling color with the front bumper.
either way color looks nice and i bet looks better in person.

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

Good stuff on the blower and kudos for doing all your own work on a very original looking Civic. GO + SHOW FTW man. I agree that a set of gloss black rims would really set the car off nicely. What EMS are you running and who tuned it?

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

im feelin' it man, good job but the rims, i'd go with the black or darker rims. to each his own but its just an unspoken rule that civics stay away from chrome besides that i think you did a damn good job. enter it in some shows your garnteed a trophy with that

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

the paint is great, rims make the car look cheap imo. everything else nice

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

thanks everyone. ill think about the rims. and for speedfoos, im running it with greddy ultimate, and me and a few other people on this site helped me tune it. its not a perfect tune, but its come along ways. the wideband helped out alot.

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

what size are those rims anyways? might be a decent idea to go with a smaller size regardless of how they look due to safety.. our brakes arent meant to stop 19" wheels.. esp. if you're turboed.

Car looks good other than that tho:D

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

lol, true. they are 18s, and im looking into a big brake kit

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

why didnt you paint the mirrors

Re: Just Got Done Painting My Vic. Let Me Know What You Think
 

i wanted to get rather the bomex mirrors or the carbon fiber mirrors later on
