WIP Civic Tuner

Heres a quick project just to hold me over untill I get the Enzo in. I've done this all in 2 days so far and im not going to go into alot of details. Im getting the main things such as the rotors, calipers and such. I cut out the front grill section though so i could put the mesh in and I also lowered it useing the lowering tut (which was helpfull), infact I lowered it so much the wheels actually hit the wheel wells and the color is the testors turn signal amber. Hope ya like...

Wow I really like the color the only thing I don't really like about it is that you used flat black for the window chrim(sp?) but it still looks very good.

I think window trims should be flat.

I never really though about them being flat I have always painted them gloss.

Yeah i've always wanted to do that to, but i think maybe I should have used a silver base coat instead of primer. That may have brought out the amber better...

Re: WIP Civic Tuner

looking good, i like the mesh in the front, the paint seems a little too runny, also the flat paint for the trim looks nice, looks to be a nice civic.
