  • Casper Update thread

    I'm starting this thread to keep up with upgrades to casper. Since the car is already swapped it's not a build thread. Opinions are welcome.....

    It started like this when I got it from Tom.






    I painted the wheels orange, then red...................................







    Then a red stripe, which I didn't like.............................................. ...........





    And I've wanted a white on white car for a long time.....................................


    So i painted the front bumper.........................................and wheels.......................








    And widened the stripe...........................also painted the wipers and removed the pinstripes

                          Thanks. My method was just scrub it down with lacquer thinner. Then cheap spray paint. I usually do it in the evening so i can use the light to get it smooth. The rear fender look like were rolled with a hammer. they are rough.

                              Looks much better already Greg! I liked the red wheels but the white ones look nice too. BTW, I bought those Civic VX wheels with tires for $150, specifically to put on Casper when I sold him, since I have $800 in my Estrellas and tires, which were on Casper. They will now go onto Kittystiva.
