awwwwwww mannnnnnnnnn............................I'm the last one to see it???..........geez..........gotta hand it to ya................that's one fine and sexy car...............you sure it's still a virgin? kuz if it iz, my Interlude would love to take it on........eh he :naughty:

Anyways, 555 is DEFINITELY A GOOD PRICE. Because The paint alone would cost me $420. I"m still deciding whether to paint my car or not. Just wash mine yesterday, and the color Luminair black still shine. But whenever I look at the rear bumper, my blood just boiled seeing that peeled off paint about the size the the palm.

Anyways...................nice job bro. And believe me, with some rims on it, people will GAGGG at your car like looking at a "devilish" Virgin goddess...........brmmmmm....brmmm

Default Damn, this is unexpected

Thanks you guys for all the compliments, this is way cool:thumbup: As soon as I can I want to get the front windows tinted 35%, get my sidemarkers installed, and install my mesh upper grill. I'm gonna attempt to put my depo jdm corners on today, if all goes well, pics will be up of the finished product later today.

Im not sure if they have 1 Day out there, look in ur phone book. If they do, and they do as good as the shop out here, you won't be disappointed.

thanks bro, I call it a virgin cause it's tight, feel me? I am very satisfied with the job they did on my car, and the price fa sho worked for me, now, like you said, I need to get some 18" Zeo BZ12 rims to seal the deal, here's what they look like I like the gunmetal ones, but I wish they had a polished lip, but the silver ones would look sexy too, what do you guys think?

I hear you bro, this is a single stage paint, meaning the clear is mixed in with the color, that's why it's so cheap, but it looks good doesn't it? It's not meant to last 10 years, maybe 5 if you take good care of it, I just needed a quick fix, my car was ugly. So yeah, if you wanted a good two stage paint job, starting prices out here are about $1500

Thanks, I got it painted at 1Day Paint and Body, if there is one in your area, go check out thier work. Depending on what you want out of a paint job, it may not be a good idea to go with them if you want something that has no texture at all and something that will last for 10 years. They specialize in single stage paint jobs and are a production company, so they aren't gonna do all the things a good bodyshop would do to ensure a mirror like finish. But don't get me wrong, they did a damn good job on my car, I just didn't have unreasonable expectations. And they far exceeded the expectations I did have

still look good to me. Those rims are what I want to get once I sell my 18s. They're Silver 7 spokes with Machined (polish look) Lips. I want to de-grade down to 17 so I can have really low drop.

The name of the shop is 1Day, but it doesn't take only one day. I dropped it off on monday morning, got it back Thursday evening. Thanks for the kind words, yeah, I liked the bordeaux red pearl but it was time for something different.
