I think the problem is that all the money was spent on paint, and none on a nice set of photographs that actually capture and do justice to the paintwork.

C!

I don't think that the money spent is important to viewers. You should leave that out next time you start a thread so people will look at your work with a different perspective. I don't see the 40K either but I do know that some paint and interior jobs can be expensive.

what did you do other than an Xbox, fiberglass dash, and custom paint and wheels?

It's nice to see you spend that much to do such a job to have unique car, but is it isn't worth "I think", but again, you have the resource from your old man. At the end you still get a CIVIC.
With that much money, I would get a brand spanking new IS, 3 series, A4, TL/TSX, or any entry luxury car in the 30K range. A chance to get laid is higher in any of those lux car than a fixup rice civic.

Having the resources and having the money are different things. But I tend to agree... I would rather have an acura.

Trust me, I own a C-class Mercedes, almost every car becomes boring and common after awhile and you want to personalize it. I have considered buying a cheaper car next time cause I enjoy personalizing it more than owning a unique car to begin with.

someone spending their money differently than you would have is a pointless topic

as i said, would be nice for more pics, maybe of sound system or install
