Let me know if you do and how much it'll run you... I'm thinking about getting my front clip repainted next summer too. I'm guessing about $300~500 with labor.

The nice thing is the front bumper is black plastic under the paint, so it doesn't rust. And people with black cars are really lucky because the chips won't show!

I got the tape from an automotive paint store. Go in and tell them you want to tape the front of your car up cause you are going to a show and dont want to get it chipped by stones. Tell them you want a tape that wont leave a residue. I think its painting masking tape automotive grade. The stuff I have is 3 inches wide.

If you had added a smiley, I wouldn't have mentioned anything.

Not sure if you search around a lot on this site, but there has been at least one person that truely cleaned the car with an abbrassive pad and asked how to get rid of the scratches. You'd be surprised what people don't joke about..

I just do to be different...the TSX is still made in Japan before its shipped here. So technically it still is a Japanese Domestic Make.
