Yeh, and, it seems as if you already knew a black car with a white hood would look awful.
I wouldn't have bothered editing it for you otherwise. :|

When I first got my first Civic, still my current, I went and bought about $150 in spray paint to paint the car. I painted it in the Winter, which was a mistake because it would have come out much nicer if I actually had some heat...but oh well. The paint came out looking flat even though it was some decently expensive metallic glossy spray paint. I was pissed, but I just really wanted a paint job to cover what was on it. Luckily now, all I need is a homemade paint booth, less than $150, and a paint kit that I can get for less than $100 on eBay and I can give the car a REAL paint job :thumb:

I can't wait to get the booth made so I can get my Civic in and out, and then start painting other people's cars. It will cost less than $100 in materials, I can charge even $500 for the paint job, and make enough money for a swap pretty fast :D. I think I'm only going to do Honda's though, that way all of the kids around here with their crappy looking Honda's can laugh at the kids with their little 240SX's. :thumb:
