Don't forget to zinc coat to help prevent more rust.

Indifferent about the pink, but the two tone black has to be there. All pink may cause a bird flu epidemic.

Eric and I had talked about the pink SVX w. pink interior idea before. (if i remember correctly)

I think it has the potential to look very good or look very horrid.

oh, just randomly:

That Pepto-Bismol pink is not a good idea.



























Then again, a lot of people don't like Penny.............

If you had some insane body mods, you might be able to pull it off, but stock (or close to it)... I don't think pink would look right.

I don't have a problem with pink, but I think you should go flourescent pink rather than pepto pink.

On another note, you my want to just get the scoop for your stock hood as apossed to the fiberglass hood from Dayle. I have one of his hoods. The quality isnt great. The body shop I went to quoted me 20+ hours to clean it up and fix the lines. The hood alone would be more work then the entire rest of the car I was told.

I agree. For me, mild nausea cancels out mild enthusiasm for originality. Even if it doesnt look terrible, do you really want to drive a pink car? Painting a honda pink is one thing, but I think the SVX itself would be embarrassed.

Lol, thanks. At first I was just trying to horrify myself with photochop, but some of the colors ended up looking not so bad.
