hmmmm, wheels/tires and system not with standing, I've only spent maybe $500 on the truck. Sometimes it takes finding a deal, or just small things that can make a big difference, like interior painting/recovering. If you do the work yourself, you can save a whole lot of cash.

But with the others, get a drop before doing a lot of other stuff.

yeah i think that ill just start, for the winter, on painting up some interior pieces. ive got a heated garage and paint booth so it might just owrk out for now. give me some ideas about the things to paint. ive seen it before where guys painted the cover on the door handles and the trim around the dash board. and what kind of paint should i use. because my dad said that like regular spray paint will crack.

the spray paitn wont crack as long as you clean the surface really well and lay down a primer first

and dont let the paint freeze.. once the paint freezez you will never get it to stop crinckling.. (im talking before you spray it.. ) keep the paint in your room or at room temp..

i was just wondering what i could do for a cold air intake. like what brand sells a 3.0L V-6 intake? i looked up k&N, air raid and a few other, but cant find anything.

thats what i do.. primer spray paint.. if you want it to really stick well.. before you spray the primer on.. spray on some adhesion promoter.. you can get that at any automotive paint store.. and as for the spray paint.. you can use damn near any kinda you want..

I just went to meijer and got some automotive paint, sanded the pieces smooth primed it then sprayed it ive also got some clear coat that i plan on spraying on when i get time. For the intake i think you can just use a civic one, there bent about the same but im not sure. Anyone else know anything about using a civic intake?
