My 2008 Honda Civic Si was falling apart and deteriorating day by day. The Honda Civic was suffering from dents, dings, scratches, rust, and worst of all, PEELING CLEAR COAT. So... I decided to paint the car and dully restore the exterior!
These mid 2000's Honda Civics are known for having clear coat issues and mine was no exception. I bought this car with the intentions of vinyl wrapping it, but one thing lead to another and then I ended up fully restoring the little k20 powered 4 cylinder sports car. The restoration and painting process was long, hard and very challenging. I hope you enjoy. Please consider subscribing to my channel! Thank you for your time :)

Hey, it’s Jonathan! I’m the guy that said hi to you when I was riding my bike! I had the black mountain bike, and I said hi to you! If you still don’t know who I am I also said hi to your friend who has a new celica gt4 that he’s putting a new trans in. I love the cars dude! I’m looking for a car myself, maybe a Subaru or a fiesta or something my parents are fine with me buying As my first car! I will now make Sure to go watch the 10 second car vid! Have a great rest of your summer! Sincerely, Jonathan. R

This turned out beautiful, congrats! I especially love how the rear bumper lip entirely transforms the look of the car, looks great with the polished exhaust tip!

I’ve wanted that rear lip on my car since I had my red fg2 back in 2017

@cameronbuttenbusch3922 Год назад

quick question, where do you find most of your flip cars? like what state and also what do u truly look for when finding these flips besides price? im big on finding the cheapest prices but it seems like u are just goated at finding perfect flips (great pricing for a great car that just needs a bit of work)

@manuellopezej1 Год назад

Glaze putty would of been better for the scratches and light dents make sure to use bumper plastic adhesive so the paint can stick 320 grit is the lowest grit you needs for peeling clear coat

@thewraith6360 Год назад

If you didnt use any adhesion promoter on the plastic bumpers it will eventually crack and come off.

I also have a 2008 Si, and last year when someone dinged my passenger door, I got the whole car re-painted by a so called 'professional' shop (Car-Star... I think they suck), and all dents and scuffs cleaned up... Although it looks MILES better than what it was, I have to say... Honestly, I think yours looks better! Awesome job man!!!
