Default My crx is all painted

Here are some pics of my car with no clear...the door jams were done with some duplicolor spray paint cause i ran out of my real paint.....it should match better when i get some clear on there.


FMIC wooot

at first i didnt think shaving the moldings would be a good idea but i think it came out damn good

when i got the car it had been rearended and didnt look so good from the back..cant even tell now. your also seeing a completely bondo rear 1/4 i cut a piece out the size of a softball there.


m4d jaydeem moon roof

see the door jam somewhat matches right now.


Not bad for my first paint job and body work car huh? I had never touched bondo before this

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
