Ya that too. I sure hope not!!! You'll pay for it in about a year!!!!!!!!!!!
make sure u close ur doors really slow and don't slam them. or else that bondo will start crackin and u just wasted time, money and paint...should've done it right. we took some sheet metal and tacked it to the side of my old accord then finished up weldin it all the way down and grinded it down...then added bondo...lasts alot longer

I really dont mind fixing it every year and painting it...me and my buddy now spray cars for 300 plus materials

I would have left the moldings. I did it once and would probably never do it again, especially on a CRX. But I did like the flush look, but overall I just wasn't feelin' it.

But nice job on the car. I plan to help my buddy backyard paint his car, hopefully soon. It's something I have always wanted to do instead of always doing rattle can.

Did you use only that Rinky Dinky Air Compressor? Must have taken hours to do 1 panel!

The tank has a 5 hp compressor and it works fine i have sprayed many cars with it...it goes up to 110 psi then the compressor comes back on at 80 psi which works fine because paint is sprayed at around 40 psi.
