There is no good place to go unless you sit there and watch them.. it all depends on who you know that works there, if you dont know anyone i would babysit them closely...

Who painted this? hard to tell but it looks orange peeled but a good cut and polish would take care of that.

I really hope the tail light link was a joke...
car is coming along tho, i think priority wise those rims should wait and focus on starting with a good base, then get into rims...

I painted the car in my garage...couldn't do a polish, it's winter, I am going to make it look real good, just the fact that it's winter is why I decided not to

Yea, please re-size your pics.

http://photobucket.com/ or http://imageshack.us/ can do it for you for free. Just read the instructions..

Here:

How to post pictures on TBAEC

A little effort on the user's part is required until the new site is up. I'm working on an automatic image re-sizer so just deal with it for now, it's really not that hard.

Here she is again guys

These pictures were resized to fit a 17" monitor

This Is What I Got So Far...
I got some big plans for this little beast. More will be done this summer...but this is it for now

95 Honda Civic DX 2 Door Coupe



The Antenna Is Completely Gone...Hopefully You Can See It






Still Need To Paint The Inside Of The Trunk...Just Ran Out Of Paint...Will Do It In The Summer








Engine...D15B7...So Far This Is What I Am Running...Plan On Doing Some Really Good Things To It Soon


Driver Side View


Driver Rear...That Whole Rusted Piece Was Completely Removed And Redone


Driver Front Side


Passenger Side View


Passenger Rear


Passenger Front Size


Front Shot...Had To Completely Replace Both Headlights And Turning Signals


Trunk Shot...Wing Is Gone...I Like It Better Without It...Looks Smooth...And I Just Ordered A H Trunk Emblem...It Was Already Gone When I Bought The Car So I Am Just Going To Replace It...It's In The Mail


Yes That Is Me...


Front Seat...Looks Clean...


Back Seat...Looks Pretty Clean


This is my new Pioneer Deck {DEH-6100BT}


There we go. Sorry about the picture size before...hopefully this helps...like I said though this is a work in progress so it will look better then it does now...I just don't want to do a shit load of stuff because it's winter...I'd rather get lots of stuff done in the summer because of the better weather

Hopefully you guys like it...but let me know what you think!!

Post any questions you have too!!

Also wanted to mention that the driver side is in the direct view of the sun, that why you can see little scuff marks...that's because I washed the car and wiped it down with a micro fiber cloth...so the scuffs you see are from the cloth...there are no scratches or anything on the car what-so-ever

Muuuuch better, a lot easier on the eyes. Thank you. Cars looking good. Too bad its auto I like the new colour however. Looks better with the doors closed, don't forget about that jambs this summer. Keep up the good work, cars pretty clean.

An automatic resizer would not have helped in this case because it still took 20 minutes to load the photos on the connection at my work...

Thanks A Lot Marc. It's Always Good To Get Positive Feedback! And Yes, I will be laying down the door jams and the inside of the trunk this summer. I'll make a future plans list once I get some idea's as to what I am going to do with the car so watch out for that too...I'll probably post it in this thread...keeps everything nice and clean...

As for the auto...ya I know it sucks but I couldn't beat the price...especially at the time...I needed a car and it was available so I had no choice...couldn't wait too much longer to get wheels so it's just how it is...

The paint still looks pretty damn good all things considered, and it'll be even better with a cut and polish. I didnt mean to offend you, it looks really good from most parts just thought it was either dry spray or orange peel in a few spots but it was hard to tell on the wifeys little laptop. Keep up the good work.

^ Thanks a lot man. I really appreciate the good feedback. No offense taken at all, I am new to all this stuff so sometimes I don't know if what your saying is a good thing or a bad thing...you gotta remember, my Car Enthusiast experience is only beginning with this car...the other two I had were not as easily worked on as this one is.

Shoot me any ideas as to what I should do next!!!
