That's a lot of glitter! Were you constantly finding glitter on your clothing? Thats one thing about it. Glitter is a permanent thing. You use it once in preschool and you keep finding it on your hands 15 years later.

what is up with that glitter paint? pretty much a show car, all show and completely no go.
prob gained 1000lbs doing all that. hope your maxima doesn't turn out like that but whatever its your car, don't give a crap

Seeing as though you did all the work yourself I commend you for the time, effort, and money you put into it... looks like it was a non stop project. On the other hand it's not my style at all and I'm not a fan of how it looks.
Maybe having a VQ35 will sway you a little away from cosmetic mods to performance

The max will be NO WHERE like the accord was. I'm just going to drop it, and do a stereo... that should be it. I have to keep it drivable in the winter plus i want to save for a house.
Thanks. The 90-93 body style has always been my favorite. For being an older car it's styling is still up to date today.

im not a honda fan, but your car definitely looks well done, IMO little too much on the flakes, but the design it was done in looks really good. Im sure it was hard to part with the car after all the time, effort, money and work invested into it. Congrats on the sale though. Dont see too many folks modding out their rides to that extreme anymore, not even the old school east coast car clubs are doing that. Only a few clubs here local in NYC still exist but not in the numbers compared to back in the day.

as everyone said the flake is pretty tacky imo.
this is more my syle build than what you'll see on the .org. not so much in the details (the car is pretty ugly imho) but in the type of work done. i would love to see you put in some work on the 5g in the same way, but keep it cleaner.
welcome.

In the two months that you had the car painted did the prizmatique fade at all? I was looking around for other people with prizmatique paint jobs to see how theres looked.I just bought all globel paint products and 2 bottles of dx78 prizmatiqe to coat the whole car so you cant even see the silver base coat. car will be getting sprayed next week.Hoping to have the crazyest paint on the block...
