kameleon civic coupe wip

here is my current build not to detailed just thought the colors looked good together duplicolor red to blue kameleon with manganese brown pearl wheels and bronze carbon fiber decal by SMS on hood and spark plug wire cover not to sure about interior colors yet but the engine bay will remain flat black so the engine looks like your looking at a piece of jewlery. I will add a fuel rail and sakatsu trumpets to itb's w/ linkages and throttle cable.
as always any comments or suggestions welcome.

Nice paint job and c/f hood.
Looks like the B16A is gettin' quad throttles?

Lookin good. Great CF laying skills

OMG! This looks amazing! The color, and C/F in the hood is fantastic!

:O awesome color
i like it

First time I have seen a civic this color, it's looking good . Is that the beggining of ITBs on the motor?? I have been planning on doind some but have not gotten around to it yet, good luck on the build.

damn...that is a beautiful paint job. loving the cf hood action. The only thing i would say is to do the kameleon color on the engine bay too.

Cool paint! CF looks cool too. :) Can you told me which colour is it? Tamiya or what? Mayby photo of lacquer? :)

Sorry for bad english.

Really neat work. :thumbsup:

Keep up the awsome progress!

heres some more pics these were taking in the morning sun. The color is duplicolor red to blue kameleon, you can pic it up at your local auto parts store or wal-mart.

i just can't get over the hood...looks so damn good.

lookin flawless! i dont see how you can get duplicolor to lay down so smooth before polishing/sanding, always fights with me

thanx for the nice words. I don't know if you have ever used the kameleon colors but it is a three step system the first two steps lay down nice like a primer. I dont use their clear I switch to tamiya as it lays down much smoother, both are lacquers so there is no adverse effects.

Man I can't beleive you need to polish that hood! in the pics it looks flawless!

thanx! The hood did'nt really need the polish I just wanted to see if I could get a deeper shine. I laid down 6 coats of tamiya TS-13 gloss clear then wet sanded 1500, 2000, then compound and polish. I am very pleased with the results heres more pics after polish
