    Default spray painted '97 Civic



    so I didn't finish the hood due to running out of red paint.
    the plan is to finish the hood, clear coat the red, and paint the lips red to match.

    oh, and it is swapped with 90k on the chassis and 60ishK on the motor/tranny, so it's "quick"

    I think if you can afford a B16 swap, a $250 single stage Maaco job is within reach..

    waist of time painting it with a rattle can. get a single stage paint and make it look decent anyways.

    i was not trying to be a d!ck. i paint cars and i have people every other day tell me a rattle can job looks as good as a base/clear job with automotive paint. and yes if that car has been rattle sprayed, it has a haze look to it. you posted one picture/angle of the car on what looks like a cloudy day. again not wanting to start a E-fight, just giving my opion.

    I wasn't trying to be one either, just didn't feel like putting "lol" or anything to clarify the tone.

    dude probably the main reason no really like the paint job is because of how it is. if it was just one color it might not be bashed ne as much

    It looks like ass, everything. Not just the paint scheme. Save up a couple hundred dollars and get a cheap ass paint job from Maaco to make it look better than a rattle can job.
