ok. yeah. um...this is but PM me a list of parts you have laying around. i may want to buy some of them from you . what motor do you have sitting on your front porch?
They're all EVENTUALLY going on the car... aside from the CF trunklid, which doesn't fit properly... that's about 80% sold to a friend anyway (he owes me a little more, and it's his)
The Prelude parts aren't really good for anything, except maybe the axles, to make hybrid axles. Everything else will find it's way onto one of my cars in time!
The motor is an A20A. A rebuilt, turbo ready (lower compression, but not forged), motor to replace the ninja-house that is currently in the car (ninjas live in there... you can't see them, but you can see their smokescreen as they escape from the tailpipe!)

LMAO. ninja house in the car. lol. almost like the 72nd anuual ninja parade. lmao
wow you just rolled it on? I thought you'd have to use spray. Can't wait to see how it turns out...I might end up re-painting my car if this turns out good.
I was thinking about spray cans...but they glob...then I was thinking about buying a sprayer...but I think a good one that will work ok runs like 500? Not sure...didn't look into it too seriously...after hitting a deer, a dog, and someone backing into me I gave up on fixing the exterior...
I have a friend with a buffer... I'll probably ask him for help when the final coat is done I've read that it's nearly impossible to make it shine by hand.
Maybe I missed it, but why are you using a roller to paint? I would think it to be cheaper to rent a electric paint gun or if you have a air compressor just buy a decent gun.Ive never painted body panels on a car but Ive painted plenty of heavy equipment and its not too difficult.None the less it looks better than rattle canning, either way its going to be uneven with roller or rattlecan.Only con I could see with using a roller is not being able to control the amount of paint you put on, where as spraying you can spray until it just starts to get shiny and move that way your going to get a better gloss.Sorry if you already knew all of this, your still the man Deev! good luck
That's the second coat. Still wet, but MUCH better coverage. The hood is starting to look the proper color now! When this dries, sanding session #1 begins!
I'm not sure what those spots are. They're only in the picture. No spots on the hood (like that, anyway... still some air bubble spots that I'm trying to figure out how to eliminate in future coats)
When I do this for real, I'll probably shave my head. I keep getting hair on the damn thing!
