about my paint job

[cmackpruitt2]

i just got an accord
it is red with a white leather top on it, i was wondering if i should remove the leather and paint the top red along with the rest of the car when i get it painted?

sorry, but i don't have any pictures

Hurrican, west virginia, ya'll have hondas down der? I didnt think you had anything but big floods and 4 x 4's.

Are you sure you arent driving a mustang?

Nate.

[cmackpruitt2]

[cmackpruitt2]

the top is custom
the previous owner had it done when he got the seats reupholstered in white leather

[Neuspeed87lx]

i see ... i dont know ... try to get some pics so we can tell you if we like it or not ... it sounds kinda weird that a red car has a white top ...

[cmackpruitt2]

how do i add a picture?

[Neuspeed87lx]

you have to host it or have someone here host it for you ...

[BLck89accord]

lol nate. might be surprised what you'd find down that way. Jacked up accord sittin on nub tires with the kc light rack on the roof and a toolbox strapped to the trunk lid. You never know. :lol

haha nate got told by the newbie.

Sounds like you have a ragtop installed. If they aren't installed correctly (rustproofing and such) they can be a big problem.

As far as removing it, its entirely up to you. They look ok if your going for a lowrider showcar style, but other than that I don't care for them much.

go here www.picturetrail.com/cmackpruitt2 to see a picture of an accord as similar to mine as i could find, i used MSPaint to put the top on, so be nice, lol

yeah, i was thinkin the same thing, but my friends said they liked it, so i thought i'd ask a few more ppl

[sanjay]

does the top actually come off? or is it just done in white leather because the seats were done that way?

[86accord4dr]

yeah i'm with cobra... that top looks like crap. I'm sure the actual car looks a bit better just that ms paint doesn't do it justice yatta yatta yatta but damn... that's as ugly as my friends '00 focus...

but seriously... i don't even know how you'd go about removing the leather... i'd hate to see the bill from the body shop if they did it...
