Default Paint Job !

Ok guys, I want to paint my 90 EX . But I have the Sh!t brown color.. that means my dash and carpet are also brown, and tan cloth seats. What can I do? Just paint the car and dont worry about the dash? Or stain? Can I stain the dash my self, will it look good?

Shop for a good deal on a paint job, and maybe you'll have enough to rewrap your interior in a new color.

I think you should save the money, sell the car and get something newer. Don't put more money into a car that has a low value. You'll never be able to recuperate that cost when you do decide to sell it. I hate seeing people put more money in their cars than their cars are actuallly worth.

I agree, unless you have something like an old school Camero Super Sport or some other old school muscle car, but a 90 accord its just a waste.

Let me get this straight right now. The car will NOT be sold. That is final. Besides, who would want to buy a car with 206k miles? At most I'd get 2g's for it. 2g's wont buy SH!T towards a new car.

To buy list

Engine
turbo
wheels

No one will give you 2g's for it. It's got too many miles. And no one told you to get a new car, just save the cash and upgrade to a better USED car.

Don't sell the car. Use it. Possibly as a reliable daily commuter car that you can just maintain very well (good maintenance is a mod if you think about it). Use the car to get to work, in the same fashion, you're using it to make money (hopefully more than $2000).

spend the money you make on something better. a project or something.
