Paint looks good. I'd like to see it in person...if you're Needham...i think that's not too far from where I work in Dedham. Should plan a meetup if you're game.

I've typed, deleted, and retyped like 5 posts, but they all are really dickish. So...

I like the color. Glad you got your car back. Sorry about your accident.

I thought this was a picture thread not a dick measuring competition.

The car looks good in person

i really think wheels could make the kit look a million times better. i will be honest, i hate hate hate body kits, but i think a set of ccw's or aggressive emotion xd-9 could make this entire setup sick!!!!....in short, im with hayseed!!!

youve spent the right amount of money getting the kit to fit right, and a legit paint job, please stop skimping on what matters.

Regardless of what the correct adjective is for your car, good job on putting in the time and effort. I think your "Built, Not Bought" sticker sums up your car well, whether the entire world loves it or hates it. When I start making payments on your car, and I start buying your parts, I'll start giving you my input.

Good work man. I feel your pain of being an early-20s student trying your hardest to make the best car you possibly can on the financial, and time budget that your life allows. For that, I give you a thumbs up. You don't have a single Chrome AutoZone part, so you're already ahead of 99% of the early 20s crowd with 4 cylinders. Lol.

I will get nice wheels, its just a question of when. I'm a fan of Works, so it will be something from them - many choices/options so ill narrow one down eventually. But it will be at least a year or so before i go ahead with that.

I dont understand all the hate from fellow tC1 owners. Your car is sick. Without that body kit, tC1 is as masculine as a curling iron. A freakin sticker doesent make anyone a poser, regardless of the situation. (not in an adults eyes anyway) A poser would have one of those old turbo waste gate sound speakers under the hood......Do they make those anymore? Im'a get one.......... : )

Lol, dident mean to throw gas on the fire, but ____. IMO, your car is sexy as hell. You make the payments, you put the work into it, put whatever dang stickers you want on it.

Jesus, the TC section of this forum of ____ing Hondatech version 2.0. If you don't follow the crowd, you're rice or a poser.

Good job for doing something besides a front lip kit, expensive 19" wheels and slammed on its nuts.

One thing I would like to "suggest" with that color, lighter colored wheels, such as brushed aluminum, white, etc would really pop. But enjoy your car as you made it, and as long as you like it, screw everyone else. :thumbup:

Love the color, but then again, I've always loved British racing green, and am thinking of using it in a paint scheme for a cb750.

PS( I love your semiflush sticker, for the very fact that it ticks super OG flushmasters off :D )
