Talking Painted my Crx today, Pics Inside

So i've been meaning to primer the entire car for awhile now, but my two friends from school are doing the same, so i decided not to. So I cruised to walmart and Picked up 4 cans of Army Green, and 1 can of some Tan color, and some black primer and went to work. Its not done yet, but its damn close, so heres what went down today.













I'm not really digging the tan roof too much, so I think im gonna either redo it in green, or maybe black. and I still have some more stencils to spay on but I want the paint to finish drying first, since the numbers on the side didnt take well to the paint, im gonna redo that too.

Thanks for looking guys. I'll update more tomorrow when its done.

Nice, I like the green a lot but the tan roof is kinda strange.

Don't do your roof in black, that would be gay gay gay gay gay!

WHAT THE SHAT???

why oh why? It seems like maybe you are going for an army theme? Then why did you use gloss green instead of flat???? It looks pretty bad.

Stenciling looks pretty badass though!

Re: Painted my Crx today, Pics Inside

Its army green you deuce and it doesnt look as glossy in person. And I really dont think it looks that bad, dick.


CivicHB: I was thinking that too, im not sure yet, I have to decide by tomorrow though.

Give me more opinions on what I should do with the roof guys cause its definetly NOT staying tan.

Thanks for the comments, possitive and negative.

Is that spray painted? If so then why does it look so good? I thought spray painting cars was crap. It looks pretty decent though. Also how long would that last since/if it is spray painted?

That's looks very intersting, and actually in a good way. I especially like the markings on the side.

Re: Painted my Crx today, Pics Inside

yeah its spraypaint. I guess it looks halfway decent cause I took my time. I still have lots of work to do on it, like sand down some runs and respray them. I have no idea how long it will last, since spray paint is cheap and I can just touch it up if it gets scratched.

I like how the side marker looks too, Im gonna install the other one tomorrow.

Keep the commnets coming!

when i saw the first picture, i wanted to reach through the screen and slap you. but... scrolling down, i noticed for some reason i kinda liked it. still dont know why, maybe just cuz its different. personally, i would have kept the black, but hey, its not my car. im glad your doing something against the grain and going with your own theme. unique to say the least. as for the roof, i say just paint it green like the rest of the car. black roof's are gay right SiZ?
