Ok,I really dont appreciate the hate. GTFO if you dont like my painting skills. Im not a pro and the car is as old as me 21. I think it looks a ton better than it did and have other priorities than spending 400+ for a good paintjob. Whats the worst that can happen from lashing back, I get banned. Is that all you found wrong with my car? Oh and IDK what your talking about I can post a pic of my spray gun if you'd like, I would love to have your approval.

Love these cars, but not so much what you've done to this one. Without bashing, I'll tell you exactly what I see. I see someone who either has no job or has a job at a grocery store or fast food joint and spends the earned money too quickly on "mods." Instead of saving, it seems that as soon as you get a few dollars, you see what you can do with that few dollars instead of holding out to do more with more money. I know because I've been there. Your car looks exactly like how we would do cars back in the early 90's. Which is fitting since your car is an early 90's car. Later, QD.

I'm not saying that the paint on the car isn't legit but, it would have to be a very low quality single stage paint. Personally I would have done the car one color and matched everything. I understand the modding on a budget thing, however, if you save your money you can get a lot better results in the end. Also what's with the purple radiator? Come on man.

You bought the car with the hood painted black that you said you painted?

Now I apologize to the guy whose negative rep I erased from your profile. I was trying to be nice to you and deleted some negative reps that were given to you that weren't necessary. I feel bad, now, for thinking you might be an ok dude. For that, I'll put the rep back on you....but x38.5. Careful with your next response. Later, QD.

Wasnt trying to be a dick. I PAINTED THE HOOD WITH SPRAY PAINT. The "mods" to the motor were done before I bought the car. I have owned the car for a few months and feel its coming together decent. Although alot of my money has went to maintenance, It will be getting some decent mods here soon. And I bought the car from a guy named Jessy

Mods to come.
-FMIC/should be here around december,its on back order fromVRSF
-I actually got my aeromotive AFPR today so thats on
-Getting some 560 EVO injectors when my friend upgrades in a few weeks
-GM MAF-T for the injectors and FUEL CUT HAHA
-ECMlink from a bud in utah, Itll be V2.5 but thats ok
-I guess paint is a mod, so ill be painting it AFTER the mods are bought/here

one thing you need to learn very quickly is not to post pics up on IA in search of approval.. if you do, you'll get offended and upset pretty fast..
i will say that the car is definitely heading in the right direction, and for that i applaud you.. but if somebody gives some criticism, just take it or ignore it, dont try and defend something that doesnt need defending.. GL with the car though and welcome to IA

I see what you're saying. I read your response in it's entirety, but i was just saying it's a bit messed up to try to tell a dude about his life based on how his car looks. Even if you did the same thing, it's still messed up, but we all get our 1st amendment rights so, fire away :goodjob:

@OP You should calm down a bit, your neg rep is building quick and you don't seem like a bad guy, so just take the criticism for what it is. Accept the compliments and screw the rest :goodjob:

Hate? I don't see my comment as hate, but if that's how you took it, I apologize.


GTFO if you dont like my painting skills. Im not a pro and the car is as old as me 21.

I don't care about your painting skills. As far as I'm concerned, your paint will never touch one of my vehicles, so it doesn't matter how good or bad they are. You're doing it yourself, though, so that gets my respect.


I think it looks a ton better than it did and have other priorities than spending 400+ for a good paintjob.

May look better, but I would have suggest maybe picking up some trashed hoods from local body shops (for free) and practicing on them until you have the feel of your gun and can get a nice coat laid down.

I'm just saying, do it once, do it right (obviously do what you want, but it's a public forum so I'll state my opinion on the matter).


Whats the worst that can happen from lashing back, I get banned.

No, you'll look like a complete douche bag.


Is that all you found wrong with my car?

No, but I wasn't hating, so pointing out everything would be pointless...


Oh and IDK what your talking about I can post a pic of my spray gun if you'd like, I would love to have your approval.

Sounds like it.

PS, take your bumpers off to paint and completely detrim them for best results...

This forum always makes me chuckle at the sensitivity level and misuse of the term "hate" If your not blowing off a guys cars and telling them how "clean", "awesome", or "nice job i love your car" when its a bone stock car with 2 or 3 mods then its considered hate when there only pointing out the obvious. QD said and spoke the truth nothing he said was "hating"

He wasn't lying he was speaking the truth everyone has gone through that step in life were you get your first car and you do stupid little shit to it thinking is cool i remember doing that when neon lights were around my dad had a 91 civic sedan and me with my first job at arbys spent all my money buying neon lights and stickers that said "NOS" and i thought i was the shit driving that crap around but in reality is part of growing up. Its not fucked up when someone is speaking the truth he just needs to snap out of it

if you use gran turismo math sure..... car is 20 years old and doesnt look like its spent the last 20 years being pampered and maintained by Chip Foose. I'd be impressed to see the car put down what it was suppose to put down stock.

anything is possible, but id bet my lunch its not making 300hp
