Re: Painted my Crx today, Pics Inside

When I was reading and he said he got army green, tan, and black I was like OMG he painted his Rex camo like all the rednecks here do. I like it though. Like you said, the tan roof has to go.

Re: Painted my Crx today, Pics Inside

Vlad, you touch my car and I'll release the hounds on your ass.

Im not really too worried on it holding up on the highway, its rustoleum or however you spell it so it should hold up decent, and the beauty of rattle can jobs is if it gets scratched or chipped all you have to do is sand it down and spray a few coats on it again.

As I was doing it and everything was taped up and covered with paper I was questioning myself on how it was going to look, but after I cleaned up and took all the tape and everything off it really started to grow on me. I like it, and thats all that really matters.

Re: Painted my Crx today, Pics Inside

I like the green. The idea about painting the moldings and pillars black is interesting. I've been wanting to redo my car in a darker green. Don't they make camoflouge colored valve covers for B16s? That would be interesting...

first off, with the b*tching you did when others used rattle can...i would have to say those people owe you the same replies

I HATE RATTLE CAN. i sure hope you never decided to paint your car with real paint. our black si went off to the body shop since that dumb broad's ins paid for her damage. the body shop told us we could supply our own replacement parts. tj's pile of parts he called a car is still at the wrecking yard. lucky for us (not really) he had rattle can the whole entire bumper 3 different times. real car paint won't lay over rattle can, it will bubble back up. last week jer got to spend a day and i got to spend a day with laquer thinner and scotch brite removing all the rattle can. as long as it took for just the bumper, i don't want to imagine trying to strip the car from bumper to bumper.

not diggin' the tan roof, black wouldn't look much better. go for a green roof and then other parts back to black as was previously mentioned by other members

Re: Painted my Crx today, Pics Inside

Yeah the paint will be hard to remove, did u sand the black paint b4 u repainted it? If not the green paint wont hold to the black paint and will just flake off especially when on the parkway. But nice color....oh and do your moldings black and your roof green.

Re: Painted my Crx today, Pics Inside

Yeah I know Ami, I was thinking the same thing, but my car looked like complete ass before and it looks better now. I dont plan on painting it for a long long time since im in college and don't have that kind of money. Besides I've got a bunch of friends that would help me out if I ever do decide to paint the car.

How much did painting the entire car cost you?

If you decide to paint it just buy a sand blaster and go to work.
