I hope you like it.
Your recomendation for my other proyect (Integra Dc2) will wellcome!!

Thanx for look...

Nice paint job! I always had bad luck with testors spray cans but you showed me how good it could also look when used in the right way!

I was looking forward to seeing you install the huge rear wing on it.

or not my friend! is not a spray paint, is a testor paint but no in spray...,
I paint with air gun.

Also had bad experience with spray TESTORS

the huge rear wing!! mmm i paint and put, but does not contribute to a clean look .

Thanks for look!!

Beautiful work, it's a completely different car now!

YAY! another honda!! great restoration. I like how you did the front lip. Very clean. keep up the good work

beautiful job! I also have a civic hb (by revell, but haven't got my hands on it yet).

I didn't know that turtle wax could remove that orange peel so easily =)

I have the civic hb revell too!! is more complete than fujimi's civic,
-have a motor, the door panels, and the suspension is very nice very complete!!

Well, the truth is that you need to polish (3000 sand paper) and then apply the turtle wax...

Thanx for your coments!

Looks great, you did a brilliant restoration!
