Awesome dude! (Y)
I liked the number plate font aswell!
Do change the right side tyre at the rear

MashaAllah, Paint work is awesome! 50k is very much reasonable as Honda is the most reliable source/vendor as compared..., here in karachi, just a good paint job from a good or wellknown workshop with Japanese(so called) paint cost 17k-18k,
Good luck & this thread is one of the few very detailed thread on PW

really nice work. what about the bumper and the lights? i think after such a nice paint job you should get some work on them as well

[hassanazeem]

Congrats Bro... Money well spent on the denting and Painting i would say... Ride looks lovely... I would suggest get wider tyres for the rear when you get the new rims and lower it 2-3 inches...

@madhouse12 yaar i am searching for a new tail bumber... if a find one i will definatly replace it otherwise i will get it repaired and chromed. and about the tail lights All the lights are geniun soo i didnt feel like replacing them... the car will loose its touch.... unless i find an orignal one...

[haroon_faq]

@hassanazeem yaar i have tried the wider tyres 205/60 R13 but the problem is they touch the Qumanies even after putting the spacers....:(... my orignal idea was putting the 205 on the rear wheel and 185 in front..... the ride will be lower down soon..... now its a one by one things to be done

i keep forgetting that this is a restoration post, not an overhauling post. yes the lights should be kept same though the chrome on the lights should be looked at. also the grill..

Please start a separate thread for your Workshop...

[sardar69]

i have already a thread of my workshop i just want to compare a costly work and a simple low cost work .

[haroon_faq]

@sardar69 yaar you wont feel the difference initially but as the time pass you will start feeling the difference between a high cost and a low cost paint job. please come visit me sometime and see the detailing they have done. if cheaper paint job would have been soo good then people would never have recomended and liked javaid autos and honda so much. jaivaid is the most expensive painter in lahore, but everyone has their own preference...
