Never been a huge fan of CRX, but i have to admit that with the before look, the after one is pretty nice!

Might wanna pay me a visit in quebec to paint mine in dark with blue reflect? :D

We are a progressive phorum here and don't care if your plumbing is inside or out.

Nice work. Definitely a chick car. What's it look like inside?

I agree, with the new paint, the rims need toning done from the bright white.

I love to paint, I just hate the prep work lol and as far as the rims go we don't even have the car any more sold it not long after I painted it. The inside wasnt anything pretty it was a compition car so the back half was box, amps and batts. I believe the the Spray Gun was a Devilbiss and the paint I cant remember it was just something I got at a local shop, and yes you will need the flex agent, I had to use it on the bumpers. Oh and Thank you for the compliments

yeah i am not too much into the prep work, but bodyworking is not my thing.
i painted only one car single stage and it was fun but i help my friend paint alot and he is a bad ass painter. so i learn alot from him and one day im gonna just do it again. the one thing he like about me is when we do my cars i remove everything. glass, moulidngs lights, strikers, what ever needs to be taped up gets removed so that there is no tape lines.

the reason he likes it is cause he doenst have to put it back in lol


nice paint job and thats cool your a girl painting...sometimes a womans touch can make a difference.

aloha
You may have subs in your car........but my doors sound better!
