Hey guys! Man it has been awhile! I have been so busy getting ready for college and graduating from high school I haven't had much time to work on my 924  . Anyways lol, I thought most of you guys would appreciate my new toy/build. For my senior project I decided to paint the car I picked up last fall (89' Civic Si). Well heres some pic's...it was a huge project lol
Before...
(Got in a wreck in the snow cuz I didn't have chains or studded tires...I wrecked the fender and ripped the bumper off)
Bodywork/prep...
Final Result...
Lastly, my Mentor and I after it was all done.

Si
Some say:
S = Sport
i = Injection
Others say (after the original carbureted Civic "S" in the eighties gained sequential efi versus the TBI on many other models):
S = Sequential
i = Injection

looks good!
Nothing special about the car imho, but others say that of our porsches.
A car's a car, and if you manage to make it look clean, it doesn't really matter what kind of car it is.
I like hondas though... good japanese stuff.

This looks good. I have painted manyyy cars in my life and practice and experience is always good especially when it come time to use those skills on a Porsche. Nice job
