I'm painting Devin's Civic and Hotrod TSI's Conquest, so I thought i'd make a thread to see progress.

Conquest-
This thing is a beauty. Just needs freshing up. Gonna paint it all over and the jams.

Front end tore down.

I've only got this one tore down so far, waiting to get the other done to jump back on it.


Devin's Civic-

About 20 fucking dents on the right side.

Jeez Devin you play wall ball with your Civic?

apparently the previous owner did. I swear to god If I find a door ding in my car anytime soon someone is going to die! I am almost afraid to park it anywhere near people. They have no concern or obviously do not care about other peoples belongings. I'm going to have to put a video surveillance on my damn car from my window in my apartment. :|

Thanks Devin...I don't even know what to say! Maybe we can meet up at the shop sometime. You guys can check out my CarDomain link for some engine mods I made...lots of improvements have come along to take care of bad design flaws these cars suffered.
