I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

i used 1 can of black chalkboard paint on the hood... i did the underside too.

and 2 1/2 cans for the fenders and doors.

the green goes on soo nice, it really has to be seen in person to appreciate how "un-spray-can-like" it looks.

i want to sell the car, im only doing this to pass the time untill my crx gets here in july, but who knows.. i may have to keep this car too, its growing on me. :D

if i were you, id do this to your car too.

ive copied someone, you should too :)

and yeah.. there is alot of dust in the paint... but the paint itself has a textured feel to it anyhow.. its rough, but still looks okay !

any one have tips for when it comes time to paint my front and rear bumpers?
