Now you're learning.

everyone knows chuki's are lammmme

piggy for life yo

[Didderson]

I think you installed it a bit low, but pig is an easy fix lol. I remember my chuki/lip bumper I drilled new holes to get it to fit higher and look better imo.

[troskinatior]

go with a midnight blue

[CaptainTrips]

Some sort of blue?

[bersh240]

NO BLUE!

[CaptainTrips]

Awww, what'd blue ever do to you?

[bersh240]

my mothers car is blue.its one of those korean cars that isnt allowed to be talked about in my thread.

[CaptainTrips]

What color are the door jambs?

[mrgreeneyes]

gray is boring.

[bersh240]

they be multi colored sir,red, silver, blackred pass doorsilver driver doorblack hatch

but my car was silver when it started life.thats why i wanted a silver or gray.(see a few posts up)....

[pejsa s-13]

i like the color on your valve cover but you say no to blue

iv always wanted to do one in a bmw alpine white from the early 90's

[mrgreeneyes]

WHITE.

[bersh240]

ok.. i posted the kirker color chart so i could have opinions on exact colors.

thers like 6 whites MGE.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

I still vote for silver with black wheels.

[bersh240]

i think silver metallic is whats gona happen.im redoing the interior aswell. new/less sound deadening. clean carpet.all happening april 24-30

when i got frame welded i pulled up some carpet so it wouldnt catch fire and all the insulation was moist...so its gota go.

[Didderson]

Well because grey is boring (medium charcoal grey metallic) and you don't like ultra blue pearl my picks are out lol.Go with dark plum metallic! If you have the balls, dark purp can look sick. You can grip and sip when you drive and look like a pimp too!

Ok I like MGE or your suggestions better?

[bersh240]

id love to do white.but since this is my first paint job i was told to stay away from white.ill have a pro pain guy from work thats gona help me mix and stuff. but im spraying so... whites kinda out.plum would be awsome. but itl look dumb on stock body.if i had aero it would be awsome.

white is easy as hell. im spray bombing my coworkers civic white. i lay NO orange peel and the paint is as glossy as hell.

our other coworkers asked which shop was doing the work. one spit his coffee out when i told him it was spray paint. he didnt believe me

[bersh240]

im not doing spray paint...so the white could differ from mix to mix..since its my first time. id rather go with what the pro guy says..
