what color is it?

What kind of car is it?

Its the easiest to paint it the same color tbqh.

Go to a car meet. Find someone with a flawless paint job and ask where he got it done. Repeat several times so you have several options.

>>16585646
>How do you go about deciding what color
You gotta do some sould searching and let your heart guide you
>finding a good paint shop?
shop around your area and check prices, ask friends and family. every shop is different.

Well if you changed the coolant that long ago it's time for another change. Could be thermostat stuck closed or there might be a broken valve that allows water into the heater core.

>Could be thermostat stuck closed
my CEL would have came on if it was

>broken valve that allows water into the heater core

explain please

> coolant that long ago it's time for another change

okay! i thought coolant lasted for 100,000 miles or so. my honda only has 65,000. i think i changed it when it had around 40,000

>>16585491
coolant should last 30-50k miles
if it's still bright green it's good
old bad fluid will be piss yellow

>broken valve
he means that if the valve that lets hot coolant into the heater core isn't working you won't get heat
some vehicles have strange proprietary core designs that don't use valves or have integrated thermostats however
volvo and ford come to mind

it could also be a broken blend door or actuator

pre 98's aint worth shit son

Fat guy can't get in and out of his car like a normal person but doesn't have the mental strength to criticise himself. That's all that's happening here but yet again society says that you an't be mean, even if you're right.

>>16583755
>who was in the wrong here
They offered a bumper-to-bumper warranty and didn't anticipate everything so its their fault. Super bad public relations move. The bad press they'll get from this will cost a lot more than the repair itself. Now poor fatties will have to buy kia.

Low displacement, high compression and a lack of an exhaust usually makes that stereotypical raspy ricey noise. Honda makes the worst ricey-ist sounding engine.

High strung fourbanger with a huge volume muffler for extra deep fart reverb.

cheap straight through mufflers and open exhausts are what make the sound

even something like an Iron Dookie can sound like a ricer if you do the exhaust like that

No credit, you're fucked. It's overpriced anyways.

5 seconds on craigslist.

You don't make enough to finance a car. Don't do it. Save your money to buy something if you want. It won't take that long and you'll save yourself a dick load of headache.

HOWEVER

Take $500, go to a credit union in the seattle area. No idea who the fuck is up there, I'm on the east side. Get a secured credit card. Use this to put gas in car then pay it off immediately. In a year, you'll have good enough credit to buy whatever you want.

>>16581246
lmao

save money and buy something that's less of a shitbox

>>16581255
Yeah I figured it was overpriced but it's got everything I want in a car so I'm willing to make the difference (if I was able anyway lol)

And that is what I figured

I don't make enough you're right
But I also only have $200 in expenses per month

So I got money to spend.
Wouldn't be willing to do a loan if I didn't think I'd have the cash to pay it off every month

I like not having debt

But I also like the car lol

And thanks for the secured credit card advice

I'll look into that

Might be worth it


I guess saving up it is

>>16581257
Shitboxes are the best m8

Why do people always ask retarded ass questions like this?

>>16585383
steam clean it?
the steam should open the pores in the carpet to release hairs

how about the carpet cleaners auto zone sells? that usually foam up and you brush afterwards

>>16585402
>steam clean
That's what I was thinking.

Should I just try a steamer and scrubbing by hand or actually go rent an upholstery steam cleaner?

>>16585425
mayeb you should just pay somebody to do it. i looked up the price of a steam cleaner and they are quite expensive

nice choice on the v8 m8

hope you get a nice exhaust for it

pic related is mine

>>16584627
Noice. Trying to decide on that, got everything for a steal but I'm still tight on my budget. Id love to get Some jhm headers and their fast intentions exhaust for it

Lol check the laws again dweeb

>>16584382
What's the logic behind prohibiting turbos? There's plenty of cars with only modest power even with a turbo.
Why not make legislation based on horsepower?

>>16584382
