Eh, couple random pictures colten (colt45) took when i met up with him on my drive up to the island.
Leed is coming Wednesday for the tune bitches.
Then before i leave i will drop it off at an old man i know's house, he has a paint booth and does hotrot show car's for a living. Any thoughts on paint? It used to be White and door jams and engine bay are white still, so i want to return to white, Question is... Champ White? Painted moldings? Black or white? bumper half black half white or all painted?

dont paint the hood. but make sure all the mouldings stay factory color. people who paint match mouldings on CRX's should be shot.

Oh and i have DEFANETLY decided on frost white, now that jd called me and threatened to fist my mom if i painted it any other color.
Thanks jd for un-dumbing me.

yeah, your car is gonna be tits mang.

CRXs = THE SHIT
-
I'm all about frost white. Painted moldings on a crx make the car look tall and the wheelbase look excessively short. If your cf hood is a mess of scratches and fade. Paint it. If it's nice leave it be.
championship white has one advantage, it's a single stage paint. It may save you some $ on the bottom line.
-
Ok, explain the difference between frost white and champ white as it apply's to putting it on the car?
How is champ white a single stage?
-
You don't need to spray clear on after... like a base coat clear coat...

Wow, i wasn't aware that champ white didn't require a clear coat. That's wild.
-
you can have both colors as a base clear. Or you can do either color as a single stage. Single stage paints of the 1980's were known for fading and oxidation, but todays single stages are realy durable. Imo id go single stage itll only save about 150$ in materials, but itll lay down smooth and have that "wet" look and its easy to fix if you get a chip or scratch
-
One of my autobody friends lays down the color, mix of color and clear, and clear. It looks really nice, and if anyone keys the car pretty deep it buffs right out. However, anything worse than that and the whole goddamn thing has to be repainted.
-
That's basicly what single stage is, urethane clear mixed with color. If he was gonna paint it a metalic color base/clear would be the only choice... Solid white is the easiest and cheapest color to paint.
