Damn man thats pretty nice! Where did you get that spoiler... i kinda like that. And do i see something on the hood?

[88accordhb]

ooo 2 tone

[jigga225]

smooth.

[Boogerbub]

I tried to type in the img before and after but I couldn't figure out the little blocks around them. There's a button at the top that added it for me, whoever fixed it-thanks.
The spoiler came off of an '80's model camaro, I think. I was just walking through the junk yard and saw it lying on a car next to a wrecked camaro of the same color. I picked it up and sat it on the back of my car and said, "Sweet!" $25!

I wanted a carbon fiber hood, but couldn't find one with any kind of design. I figured I'd try my luck with some fiberglass and puddy and- whoala! It's actually pretty $hitty in person and heavy as hell! But I figured, hey- I'm building a distance racer:)....Looks fast from a distance!

Buy the way, all supplies where well under $150. It was the cheapest single stage paint they had and I had enough to do two cars. The pics aren't far off from what it really looks like either. I am esstatic about my little ricer! Now for the tinted windows!

[88LXi68]

looks pretty good!

[Hash_man_Se_i]

Looks pretty damn good for a home job... i like the two tone, and the del sol wheels set it off well.

[frankie89]

oooooooooooooo thats nice!! I love dem hatchbacks, i just sold my coupe to fine one of them... nice job on da paint....

[89HondaLxi]

the two tone looks good man

[BlueBead]

SWEET!
I'm going to be painting soon as I can get the dough together... you should write do a write up on how you did yours for the rest of us backyard body-people
Awesome 2tone too; you really brought that hatchy back to the limelight
Good work!

[Justin86]

I see no rust, looks good.

[Cheeseburger]

thats a good looking paint job man. i like how the 2 tnoe looks

[BDaccordguy]

two tone looks hot.. and i had always wondered how those wheels would look on a 3gee.

[epic1400cs]

Excellent job!

[Boogerbub]

I really appreciate the comments guys. I got the idea of the two tone from a guy on here with a droped blue hatchback and he used microsoft paint or something to color in the bottom half of his accord. People told me not to do it, but I'm glad I did.
I got those wheels AND tires off of a buddy that got some 17's for his del sol (good call Hash man) for $150. I'm an entrapanuer. I have to be though, I don't make much money- and my wife is hot$$$$$.

[Cheeseburger]

so whats up with the hood?

[Boogerbub]

AHHHH!! What the crap, Mane! I read the post for newbies and made sure not to ask anyone how to post the pics. I know I did it right this time. Oh well.

[Boogerbub]

I'll go take a pic of the hood right now and try to load it to my web page and get it on here. I made the hood. I couldn't find what I wanted, so I made one. It didn't turn out perfect, but hey, it was my first shot.

[Boogerbub]

Hope it works, I'm doing the thing too.

[Busted_Blue]

[88Accord-DX]

Hope it works, I'm doing the thing too.

Car looks good for painting it yourself. Are you using cardomain? Cardomain don't work for me as a host. Not sure what is going on there......

You need a host for pics. There are several. You can't upload them from your computer if your not a foundation member. (if that's what you trying to do)

[Boogerbub]

That's weird. They worked yesterday. I give up.

[Cheeseburger]

dont give up man, it takes time to learn how to post pics

[HondaBoy]

friggin sweet dude! 2 tone is the shit! thats pretty much what i want to do on mine. looks great.
