[bb4pimp]

that turned out really good man, car looks sick

[Sinfix_15]

probably the best home paint job ive seen

[BoxOn20s]

Good job! I'm impressed.

[msanch24]

theres plenty of accord fans on here, just not enough nice accords.

paint looks good, but hate the lip kit.

[EVO21]

I like. Very detailed and you put some hard work in. You a painter for a living or this just a hobby?

[EmminoDaGreat]

sedan bumper, let me get the front lip

[1NonlyAccord]

Thanks guys..Some like it or not..people in the 6thgen scene know what work was put into making the front and side lips fit since they are for sedans.
and im a body tech,so painting aspect is just a trial and error hobby..haha

[mistergou]

looks good!

[DTEG]

[GSRteg®]

[1NonlyAccord]

Thanks guys. Means alot coming from this forum..haha

[Stockaccord]

Looks really nice man

[boostedb16]

Looks good but shit, did someone shoot it with a fully automatic pellet gun lol. There were alot of ding circles to fix.

[1NonlyAccord]

ha no,some were waves,scratches.ect..just circled so i wouldnt forget or miss them..the body was actually clean for a 99..maybe 5/6 dents..rest of the work was from when i had a body kit molded to the car.had to get the left over bondo/fiberglass off that was left on previous paint job.

[Sinfix_15]

Thanks guys. Means alot coming from this forum..haha

because this forum has some of the most diabolical haters this side of the mississippi

[G.C]

[PlatanoPower]

nice, the 6th gen accord has always been one of my fav. cl-s swap would be nasty

[1NonlyAccord]

nice, the 6th gen accord has always been one of my fav. cl-s swap would be nasty

[BlackDubs]

Nice accord and clean paint

A nice job man i own a paint and bod shop and i can tell the time you put into it. Im glad to you pulled out the all the lights and door handles instead of painting around them . People just dont understand what it takes to get a good paint job. They think if econo can spray it for 250 dollars everybody else is making a killing . Hell if i paint my own car (unless its stuff left over) it would cost me 600 in materials alone. There is no money in all over paint jobs not when insurance companys pay 3,000 to paint a bumper hood and fender and nobody wants to pay 1,500 for a good paint job these days. If you do body work for a living then you know the prep is 80 percent of the paint job the only difference between a good and bad painter is a good painter knows the secrets to how to fix mess ups with out reduing everything because in paint and body there is always something messing up no matter how good you are. Im not sure if you have ever heard this but a great buffer will out paint a great painter anyday and that is 100 percent true lol. I hate to buff id rather respray a fender then buff something out but a great buffer can mess a car slap up and make it look like gold. Anyway nice job man looks realy good and if it needs it i got a guy that buffs for me . He charges 150 to wet sand and buff the whole car take out any imperfection there is just trying to help.

[CptWitwiki]

looks really good for just hobby work

[quickdodge®]

Not many accord likers on this site.....

It's not that there aren't many Accord likers on here. It's just that not many liked yours.

But now it's starting to not look so bad. Keep up the work. Doing it yourself is more than I could do. Later, QD.

very true..i rather do body work than paint..man everything that could go wrong went wrong..but for a garage paint job..its fine..and i already sanded and buffed it.thanks tho.thats how i started in the auto body business as a detailer during highschool.
now i wouldnt mind spending a little money on a detail and clean..getting all the dried wax and compound off..hahaha its getting way to cold to take hours to get all them spots..haha

[h22 jones]
