My car... so far
Hey you guys! I'm posting some pics of my car to see what you think of it, or to see if you have any suggestions on what I should do next. Being a chick, the guys around my area don't think either (a) girls shouldn't fix their cars up or (b) girls shouldn't drive better lookin' cars than me
 so they don't help much with advice. so here ya go... what do ya think so far... and yes, before you say it... my next investment is going into new wheels    |

Thanks guys! Errr... I know, the hubcaps, only temporary, but they still throw it all off. The rims will be on in a couple of weeks, I'm going with 16" MR7's, but can't decide painted silver or painted white. Any thoughts on that? And the tails, altezzas aren't that common around here, (REALLY small town) so it's still kinda for the heads turning, but I'm thinking of going to the red and clears soon.

I'm really glad you guys like the interior! That's probably the thing I'm most proud of so far
 Quote:
For the white, I just used gloss white Plastikote Vinyl/Fabric Color. It works really well on the plastic pieces; with the doors and bigger pieces, you have to really, really, take your time. As for the blue, I used royal blue fabric (it's royal, the picture didn't really do the blue justice) and cut it and glued it. As for the rims, I'm still stuck between the white and the silver Motegi's. Yeah, I really like the white, but would that be TOO much white  I still have a week though |

white rims. that silver does not have anything to go with. also if u wanna be a bit different reomve the tailights, open them up and pain them white where the chrome is. it will look supernice, and nobody is gonna have them.

Thanks HondaChick! It took me almost a month to do the interior, and I'm still not done. That was having to do a few pieces at a time though. I did all the painting and taking apart the interior myself, except for the couple of times I had to call good ol' dad when I couldn't figure out how to get a piece off... or back on
 But most of the stuff I've done as far as modding goes, I learned right here! |

Hey CivicChik...nice ride girl! Your interior is hot. Mad props!
I got the rims you want too if you want to check out my car. But as soon as I saw your car ...I thought gunmetal would look really good if youre getting the MR7's. Yeah personally I dont like white on white either. http://www.diaboliqueracing.com/pageKelly.htm Kelly~ |

Okay, I finally got my rims!!! I went with the white MR7's. It looks sweeeeet
I'm putting the finishing touches on the interior now, I'm painting the custom sub enclosures and just got the white and blue carpets for my trunk. As soon as I get my brother back over with his digicam, I'll have the pics of the final product! |

Oh yeah! Your car looked hot with the white rims so I figured I'd go with it, and I'm glad I did... and for all the gunmetal fans, there was an 8-10 week wait to order and of course I had to have them now! |
