I Did It! Paint!
So I finally did it, I painted all my grey on my silver gen 1 black with the bumper black spray! I did the grill and the wipers and wiper cowl first months ago, and now I did the bumpers, fender flares, side skirts, boor trim, and that window trim that flakes off and is chrome underneath! It looks so good! I'm so excited! I hope it holds up like the other stuff did! I had to wash, clay bar the overspray, and wax it. Oh Btw it was about 3 cans for what I did today, but when I did the grill and wiper trim it was 2 cans. I layed that on thick!


Before.....







After....

Looks pretty good! But from the last picture it looks like the front is darker then the back but that's about all i could find that was wrong!

It was. It was the fastest crv in the country. I got it from Inline Pro.

Everyone on the crv forums was messing with different cleaners and polishes to get the old oem look with the faded plastic, so I figured i'd do what I always do, and just repaint. Worked well, better than their tire shine, penut butter, back to black stuff.

sold that a while ago. Got this right after. All I have been doing is fixing it since I got it. I have already sunk thousands in it, and I just dont know where it went!

I still have a list of mnor mods to come on it. I have a almost 3 year old now, so i needed a 4 door, and wanted to be able to drive on the beach in the summer, but of course I had to have something different, at least a piece of history. I really wanted a rhd though. Maybe I'll convert this
