not a fan of all red tails but it looks like you did a great job. nice lip. also, how is that legacy amp treatin' ya...??

 

[civics4life]

its nice... 2000w and i got 3 10 inch MTX's, they hit real nice. i havent had a problem since i bought the amp off of ebay and it was only like $136 with shipping

They look good, I think the clear reverse light would have been better left clear but they do like good how they are, nice job. You should put your hubcaps back on. What lip is that??

so would it be safe to say that you think its putting out the rms wattage that the specifications say it puts out...?? Im in the market for amps at the moment so just wanted to ask a few questions 8) !

 

[civics4life]

nah 2000 is the max...it probally puts out around 1800 rms through out the music and at peak points of the song it might put out something near 2000 but its still nice tho. if it was a rockford fosgate amp then it probally would but those are just too expensive for me

[radarblips]

Looks pretty good, nice job on that man.

 

[Jibber]

the tails look good, for some reason it reminds me a lot of an accord..and that's a crazy lookin lip you have there, never seen one like it before..

 

[Jezek]

Looks like you did a good job..............but imo that front lip is a lil, eh..."ricey" I dunno, too busy for me. maybe paint the "splitters" black

keep up the good work tho.

Nice DIY

Just wondering where did buy the paint? and did sand it first then paint it

thanks

 

[Stinky]

How did you paint ur taillights. Did you have clear to begin with? or is it a special paint. I wanna do that. Can I get the orange part red??? Thats pimpin.

 

[civics4life]

i got the paint from a local hobby store. The name brand i think was Testors Candy Red Transparent paint. It worked out pretty good. I think im going to buy the same kind of paint but yellow for my fogs when i get them. And i didnt sand anything down i just washed the lenses on top, sprayed light coats, and now im going to use a clear coat.

 

[civics4life]

yeah the orignial taillights were stock, so it had red, orange and a clear part on it. I just taped off the bottom that was already red, and then sprayed over the whole top half that was clear and orange. If you do enough coats it would come out looking line mine depending on how you want yours to look.

 

[Stinky]

thats sweet... Im gonna do mine this week. Are they still bright enuf, and are your blinkies still legal?

 

[civics4life]

yeah it still shines perfect. now since there is red over orange it lights up as a red but has a cool orange glow effect to it. The only thing i think that wont pass inspection is the red over the reverse lights tho
