Project PIAA Accord Street Mod 17 PICS

Here it is! This was my most favorite model to build and it was the most fun. I added a custom exhaust and piping with a coat hangar and chromed the lip on the rims. Also, i added mesh grille to the front end which looks awesome. Watch out for my next model, a Nissan Skyline. (anyone know how to strip paint? i painted the skyline body silver but it looks platinum and i don't like it)

There are three pics that are there as links. Don't forget to click those too. Did you read the intro? Tell me if you can answer any of that. Thanks

Very nice motor dude. Love it!!

I recently stripped a supra with 'mr muscle' oven cleaner but nearly gassed myself in the process!! Oh, and I ripped the rubber gloves I was wearing and my nails went like an 80 a day smoker!!

I have heard on here that Castrol Super Clean is the best (although I couldn't get any to try over here).

See what the other guys say but maybe keep these in mind.

to strip it... put it in a container of castrol super clean. make sure there is enough super clean to cover the car. let it sit for a day. use a toothbrush to scrub off the loose paint. WEAR RUBBER/LATEX GLOVES. put it back in the CSC and let it sit for another day. scrub it again. (wear gloves again). then wash it under warm water with some soap. make sure to get all the CSC residue off. oh,and the CSC is reusable, so filter it with a funnel and a coffee filter back into the container and save it for another "mistake"

works like a charm...

if for some reason it doesnt work (some auto paints) use brake FLUID (NOT CLEANER) same process, but make sure you have fresh air when you use brake cleaner.

You should just fix the links, take the spaces out of there, then they'll show up as pics.
And nice looking car.

Wow, that's a nice piece of work you got there I like how you made the rims silver and white, you know, my Accord is going to be blue too!! I think it was Artic Blue or something, an Acura RSX can come in that color stock.
