Simple and good build , really amazing work

[@BenjaminBrooks-Dog]

I watch you’re videos but I don’t know if you only work on Hondas or what but I really am in need with my car it’s an automatic 2008 Chevy Aveo it’s my second cylinder it’s misfiring

[@dontrend5956]

The same thing happened to me. I was walking out to my car and some guy asked if I wanted some free upgrades. I said yes and I gave him my keys. I never saw that car again.

[@SmplBuilds]

🤦‍♂️😂😂😂

[@shogunrai1]

I was like "wow, so many kind people out there.", until I saw the last sentence. 🤣

[@dontrend5956]

It was a joke@@shogunrai1

[@geogmz8277]

Same happened to me, I wonder if it was the same guy.. Was your guy asking politely with a gun in his hand? (Just curious).

[@dontrend5956]

Must have been a different guy.@@geogmz8277

Rumor has it that he crashed after leaving. The new front lip wasn’t enough to help stop the car.

[@evoman44]

First of all it was awesome to have found a struggling car enthusiast that needed help with his project car. For being a cheap make over it turned out pretty decent. However it could had turned out even better with a little more work in sanding down the hood, the fender and priming it. A good prep job will make the cheapest paint job look good. Then spray painting the wiper arms and wheels with black trim paint. Which by the way you should buy a case of black trim paint to keep in stock because it will be useful on all future cars you work on.

[@manasdatta8037]

You beat me to it. I was also going to suggest that a single run with heavy cutting compound after the paintjob would also greatly improve the look of the hood. Wouldn't add much to the money already spent on this fantastic transformation.

[@evoman44]

@@manasdatta8037 Buffing it afterwards would had also greatly improved the finish. However I had noticed the paint on the hood had small cracks which will always show through unless it's sanded down to bare metal. But then it would had needed to be primed with epoxy primer. But it would had looked almost factory fresh.

[@manasdatta8037]

@@evoman44 Agreed. Even if not down to bare metal, smoothening out the hood (for the sake of staying within budget and not spending a lot of time on it) would have improved it. I feel like that fender with the bubbling could be also improved with wet sanding and a cut n polish - again keeping in mind that you don't want to spend money on materials and things.

[@evoman44]

@@manasdatta8037 That's true. Even just a good sanding and a decent affordable rattle can primer would had made a big improvement.

[@viniciusgom.s]

A respectful review. I agree.

[@DannerBanks]

Shame the paint on the hood and fender turned out so wonky. I've seen you guys do awesome spray can paint work before so I wonder what happened

[@Big_____Smoke]

Not enough prep im thinking

[@WadeSuave]

either way it still looks a million times better

[@atombomb6207]

more like no prep at all didnt even primer @@Big_____Smoke

[@BackwoodsGarageLLC.]

⁠@@Big_____Smokeexactly what I was thinking, almost like they didn’t even attempt sanding the hood

[@alejandroasencio5010]

If he just polishes it with a wheel it will buff out

[@tacticalsamurai85]

Thank you for what you do. We need a lot of this in the whole world. Kindness goes a long way.

[@SmplBuilds]

🙏🏼💙

[@kevinarmstrong7469]

Honestly this is a channel I can get behind. I've been turning a wrench most of my life. I've done paint I've done mechanics I've done it all. I've helped all the people at my work for no charge. It's awesome to see a younger crowed getting help and hopefully a lesson in good work ethics and hardwork.

[@jonathansanchez7169]

I wish we could have seen this guy install the brakes and brake lines get fixed. I hope there is a part 2

[@bigjohnson7415]

Too bad you couldn't REALLY help out and get his brakes fixed. Appearance is nice, but safety is far more important. The struts were really helpful I'm sure! Great of you to help others out. 👊👊👊

[@AudieBrownJr]

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe they did it off camera.

[@TheCaptainPlanett]

Love this one, Seth. You're everything that's right with the car community. Keep doing what you love. 💪🏼

[@cathleen7179]

I have this honda sitting around in front on my house, it is my beloved one that just couldn't take it anymore and now needs help more than ever. sadly I do not have enough car knowledge to give my honda back the life it deserves, but I am so happy to see that there are people like you out there helping the ones that also need a little help and I am so glad for the kindness you give towards the entire community! thank you!

[@ThatHondaGuy2]

That’s awesome, Seth! Liking the videos and what you’re doin, helping folks out. Ya know, it’s selfless to give back to those that need it, expecting nothing in return. That’s a quality more people need to find within themselves and use it for the greater good. Many blessings. Peace.

[@johnc5713]

You guys are sooo freakin awesome!!! Helping someone out like that is what more people should do!!! Car looks amazing besides the running in paint. Probably will last a long time especially Hondas

[@itsvirga7867]

This is absolutely amazing, always wanted to see stuff like this. This is a great example of how A little work can go a very long way

[@SmplBuilds]

Thanks so much!!

[@SirDevious1]

Thays gotta be one of the coolest things I've seen in a while.....helping an everyday guy make his car just a little better than it was and giving him something he wouldn't have had otherwise.....VERY COOL!

did you fix the brakes?

Ppl hating on the lack of fixing or the paint job but man as someone with an old car with damage. This is sweet man. Not many ppl would help this much. You got a new sub here man

[@ep-ou7sc]

I may he commenting to early... but... we did all the pretty stuff. Did we address the fact he said he had no rear brakes?

[@VOTE.AMERICA]

I guess being able to stop wasn't as important as having the oxidation on the hood covered!

I think spraying the wheels to prevent the rust and blacking out all the emblems would have been a nice touch under budget

[@jolladevices]

These build video are very relaxing to see. I have a question on that TURBO paint: there is a similar product to finish it like a transparent/glossy layer?

[@nehemoth]

Loved when you were presenting the suspension and talked about quality on the budget, no everyone has a car for the track, some just use it as a tool to move around (yes, even when we do all the maintenances on time).

[@FrancisD]

I am genuinely suprised those bolts that go into the rear lower control arm didn't seize up in there being how rusty it was 😅😅

You guys should spent a little bit more time on prep work before paint. It costs nothing other than time. A a good degreaser and a tack cloth go a long way

[@rjaybruhh]

*_Bro couldn't have found a better car! The good old Honda EK with the D16 motor averaging 35mpg. Reliable & even nicer with these upgraded goodies. It looks like it has the rare Amethyst Pearl paint that only about 2,000 civics came out with that paint. Mine was the same color until my uncle painted it white smh 🗿_* I personally have a 97 Honda Civic Hatch (same as in the video), but mines white. It's the daily / track car project. Definitely going to do a Type R conversion on it in the future.

Didn't even fix the brakes???

[@marcopoulin475]

What happenned with the rear brakes anyway? Curious to know if Eric had it fixed 😅

[@jsk2276]

These always look great however I think you can still normally find a good wheel solution for most cars for pretty cheap. Normally you can find a set of honda oem, aftermarket, or otherwise wheels for right around a hundred for Hondas. Then it's just a matter of swapping tires

[@BDaDon-n6f]

Anybody that had something to say about brake zelle him the money for rotors and brakes amd sure hell do the free laybor respect he did the most he could for him

[@SmplBuilds]

Haha. Appreciate it bro 🙏🏼

[@SoGood_Racing]

when doing my ZR 160 which is more or less a rebadged EG civic i had paint reactions like that best way to fix that is with either an activator where it dry's before it can react or doing it in weather where it can dry fast or super dry coats basically get it to dry before it has time to react and any reactions just leave it alone let it dry and lightly sand it back with 1 or 2k grit. aint no pro but like that's what i have been taught to do looking foward to seein more vids of this dude and his car

[@JustinH2O]

I own a 2005 Honda civic coupe. I lack the knowledge to do anything to it myself personally so I could only wish I could bump into someone like you to help transform it. Love the work you do bro. Keep it up.
