Thanks guys, I'm glad that you agree that it looks good while being original; something not easily accomplished with a 6th generation Civic. It's an ongoing project and if you don't mind, I'll keep you updated as it progresses. There will be a few aesthetic upgrades over the next week or two. Thanks again.

I'm suprised at myself but hey, I like it I think it suits the cars lines quite well and you have got the individuality of a unique colour.

Pretty sharp looking Civic. That seems like a pretty good deal on the paint job, too, at least from the pictures you've posted so far.

It was $1200, done by an individual who works out of his house, though he's in the process of opening his own shop.

The guy said, after the car was done, that a big paint and body shop would probably charge around 4 to 6 thousand dollars for what he did.
