why would you buy a body kit if you couldnt afford to have it professionally painted?!?! you dont own a damn civic!! But now it looks like one with the mismatched body parts. and 11" monitors... cmon, why dont you put a 42" plasma in it like the guys on pimp my ride?? Underbody neons... civic as well. Sorry man, you did pretty much everything wrong on an entry level luxury car. maybe a little harsh, but it's the truth, sorry.

I am taking classes to be a car paint on the body shop (soon to be professional ), so this was just a project and practice. The only mismatch was the color of front bumper since the damn paint shop gave me wrong color but too late to fix it. The rest of the kits I got it all match and that's the
Extreme Dimension Duraflex GT Competition Complete Body Kit http://www.extremedimensions.com/5705.html (is not a mismatched body part). I got an extra front bumper will be paint soon to match the car . I Spent $1100 total to paint the kits. 4 layer Prime, 5 layer Paint, 7 Layer Clear Coat Urethane and that's more than the cost of professional Paint shop! . My wife want to have that stupid tv for our trip to SF last month. I hate it. The headrest is not confy at all. Will be remove soon. The Neon is just been sitting in the garage (bought it for my RSX but sold the car and got this G) for a while so why not put in there rather than a waste.

by mismatched body parts i meant the color, you see civics and other ricers rolling around with unpainted body kits. I know what kit it is, that is kind of a shame that you spent all that money to paint it and it's still not even a close match.

Learn from a mistake that's all I can keep saying to my self man. To think about it after your comments maybe I should just paint the whole car. I'm Thinking Orange ... hmmmm I gotta see that ....
