Accord

Thanks to all you guys, Tony, CpWerks, Brasher for the help and pointers.
The chop still has many errors, and maybe a second version to come.
It was mostly brushed atleast over 75% of it was. The whole body was rebrushed.
Reflections, interior, exhaust, and rims, were donored.
edit:this was also my first stab at brushing.

Org.

Chop.

excellent work! props to you for the amount of brushing you did. the original looks like my car

except i've got the OEM kit and an exhaust on it.

the things that i noticed are that the bottom sides of the rear bumper dont look like they're the same shape on both sides. the right side is much rounder than the left side.
the door looks like it's a little too reflective.

and a detail that only a few will really care about is that the USDM accord style was never made in Right hand drive

i really like those rims too!

The plaque is a nice touch. Love the brushing and reflections. There's just enough and they're not too apparent/opaque.

One beef: Who shows off their ride at the edge of a cliff?! Just kidding! Good one Richie.

Nice, very nice. The only thing they didnt mention imo, is the sketchy arches. I think they should appear as a smoother curve. But really great job dude.

one word.

sexy.

that thing is awesome and screams class, the interior and door are perfict and nice exhaust.

As previously said at our 4am MSN chit chat. The shaving is really very nice. Your choices for donors is equally as good. There are still just a couple of things that bug me. Because you have rebrushed alot of the car, some of the reflectivity turns into smudginess in areas. I know its difficult to maintain sharpness, but believe me its possible. Also as said previously by Prototype, the arches look sketchy. The rear is vastly larger than the front one. Aside from these Id say you are improving

so keep it up dude.

Easily your best chop by a mile!

I think you have done really well with this chop, like tony said, you couldnt have found better donors, and the shaving is smooth.

No real probs here, class work all round.

Keep it up
