MY GREEN EF CHASSIS....56K go knit a sweater

Thanx for the comments, Munster is right, the pix don't do it justice at all. I have to get better ones, but its a pain since the car is only a rolling chassis right now. I wanted to keep the car as stock appearance in color/molding look as possible, I would NEVER paint the lower moldings- CRX's look so "backyard painted" with them color matched. Hell I almost left the belt moldings black, but I wanted a lil change to the car. Guys I thought you like clean cars, not ricey paint jobs

: lol hahaha

I was going to do a glass top, but couldn't get one fast enough....my paint guy got another guy to aid him and he finished 4 weeks sooner then expected. The roof color looks black in artificial light, but is really a dark heavy metallic grey...its a matrix color and a 2006 4runner color. :twisted:

Now I gotta get my EF8 front clip in and have it sprayed and side markers cut into my fenders...thank god i have left over paint- the color is not cheap.

He actually was going to I think. The painter sprayed them before he got a chance to tell him not to.

No, i originally wanted them sprayed. However I stopped by one night and he was spraying the bumpers and some trim and he left the black trim on the bumpers black...looked real good, however he already sprayed the moldings, which were brand new and cost me a bundle, so I told him I loved it, but to spray the bumper trim since he already did the new side moldings.... I wasn't gonna buy another set of new ones. Hope you guys can follow that.

1) wanted them painted.
2) then didn't.
3) then went back to original plan of painting them.

I wanted the door handles painted green, but he forgot and put them back in the car unpainted...I liked it so much i thanked him for forgetting to spray them.

In case you didn't know, purchasing new honda pieces get really expensive quick. I get a 20% discount and I still have over a grand in misc OEM parts and trim on this car already!!!!
