View Full Version : Ha ha! I have influence!!
supergoat 06-24-2007, 06:18 PM So my girlfriend Julie has a 1995 Acura Integra. And it Used to look like this.....
Yes, it needed paint. The picture does not show just how PINK this red car used to be.

The problem was Julie did not want to pay for a complete color change so she had to decide on a red. She is not a huge fan of red. She got the book from the paint shop showing all the OEM colors available. I grabbed it from her and flipped from the Acura section straight to the Mazda section.
Yup, I talked her into painting the car Copper Red Metallic. :D: She could not pick a red she liked so I showed her pics of the color and she liked it. The car came out great! It looks much better!

9krpmrx8 06-24-2007, 06:22 PM Sweet, now just slap some GSR blades on her and it will look great. You could probably get a set of GSR rims for $200.00.
kimberly lynn 06-24-2007, 06:25 PM That looks SO much better.
SolarFlare665 06-24-2007, 06:47 PM wow, nice paint
moRotorMotor 06-24-2007, 06:47 PM :)
llzjayarzll 06-24-2007, 06:48 PM great choice! was it expensive?
kimberly lynn 06-24-2007, 06:49 PM haha, nice mo
supergoat 06-24-2007, 06:56 PM :)
yar! My car is also in the first picture, but it's a little easier to spot. :)
I'm not sure what she paid for it.
altspace 06-24-2007, 07:03 PM Very nice indeed. Why leave on the side molding?
saturn 06-24-2007, 07:22 PM Look how sexy that Winning Blue 8 looks. It's all, hey, look at me -- you don't even know what I am. I must be some sort of exotic piece of tail from overseas. That's right -- look how much better I look than all these cars around me.
pistolpen31 06-24-2007, 08:36 PM one of my favorite colors of the 8. nice work man.
bassy 06-24-2007, 10:26 PM Niice...big difference!
#1Stunna 06-25-2007, 01:11 PM nice!
SlowLude 06-25-2007, 01:48 PM Nice color! Now you need to lower that sucker!
evilmiata 06-25-2007, 01:50 PM Less sun! Or a polarized filter!
imput1234 06-25-2007, 07:54 PM Very nice, paint made a HUGE difference.
Holy shit , what a huge improvement. Looks bad ass now!
looks good
gsr blades would be nice, but gsr motor would be nicer :)
elite8 06-26-2007, 01:59 PM Slammm that thing....
hough2696 06-26-2007, 03:02 PM How sad is it that I could even spot your 8 in the second pic?!?!? The paint looks good man!
Nick R 06-27-2007, 09:52 PM I absolutely love that color, and its obvious it looks good on other vehicles as well. Nice choice.
Wankel1 06-27-2007, 09:58 PM Big difference, Get some type R or GSR rims. and you are done .
^ i disagree. rims will be nice, but i think it also needs a subtle drop, maybe just an eibach prokit.
so anyway, again the color is very nice :)
XDEEDUBBX 06-28-2007, 01:34 AM my honda just came out the body shop 3 weeks ago, ask your girl if she wants to race me

XDEEDUBBX 06-28-2007, 01:35 AM BTW, I didn't steal those LS meshies on the car..hahaha
i thought that yours were known as GSR mesh, 15x6, and were available on 97-01 GSR's and LS's
http://www.autoguide.net/apf/images/products/keystone/zob28326f.jpg
and these are LS mesh, 14x5.5, only available on the 98 LS
http://www.autoguide.net/apf/images/products/keystone/zob28316f.jpg
can you clarify for me?
Oranje 06-28-2007, 02:47 PM I think you should have gone in a slightly different direction. :evil_laug
Good thing about paint ... you can always re-paint.

jp4wd 06-28-2007, 04:04 PM Nice color....how much does it cost for a paint job like that?

they came on both, mine came off a bone stock LS. At first I always called them GSR meshies till I went to the honda forums and everyone calls them LS meshies. Whatever, I love them though!
XDEEDUBBX 06-28-2007, 04:43 PM here's my poor rendition, did some custom body mods and gave her a body kit
