derek, looks like we’re going to need a bigger and more perminant paint booth than the one we were planning on in the spring.

btw you’re welcome about the POS, we both know you love it, i gave you a great deal, and it looks hot now.

i love to look at it, as soon as i have to drive the thing im gonna want to buy another s13 for winter. Paint does not change the fact that its a 1.5L civic.

am i the only one that does not like how it looks. The paint does not complement the lines of the car at all. The colors don’t really match either.

The workmanship is VERY good though, i applaud you on that.

The job looks very nice man, looks really professional.

I wonder though, would Foose be mad at you considering it’s a honda?
