1995 Acura Integra Type-R Replica
Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1995 Acura Integra. The owner of this import came to our shop looking for a very particular paint job; Phoenix Yellow from the "Integra Type-R." Since the actual Integra Type-R is a very rare car this ones owner decided to transform his into a replica. The car came to us with nothing remaining of its original paint, an outside source had performed all of the requested bodywork and applied a coat of some sort of primer sealer. We began with a chemical cleaning, removing all road contaminants like bugs, tar, etc. and scuffed the existing primer sealer with an abrasive hand pad. Naturally, most people dont like painted windows too much, so avoid counter that problem we masked off all of the windows to prevent overspray. After masking, the Integra was ready for our own coat of primer sealer and the new coat of Phoenix Yellow paint!

2011 Honda CR-V Accident Repair
Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2011 Honda CR-V. This little SUV came to our shop with parts dangling all over the place! It had an unfortunate encounter with a fence the night before we began working on it! Sadly the front fender and trim moulding were unable to be revived by us, however we were able to obtain the exact same parts directly from Honda! We "refinished" or repainted the front right replacement fender, while blending paint onto the neighboring panels to avoid any obvious differences or "breaks" in color. Once all of the paintwork had been completed we re-assembled the car, washed the exterior and dusted off the dash, and finally returned it to its owner looking like new again!
