My Experience with the CAR I Got Here On Nairaland(Total Transformation) by jacobjamie(m): 3:31pm On Jul 25, 2020 |
My Honda Transformation story starts here,pls Try to follow this story cuzz I will keep updating it until it's a 100% fully Transformed into a Beast. I saw an advert of a 2007 Honda Crv green in color a month ago here on nairaland, when I saw it, I knew it got a whole lot of work to be on both paint job, body work, parts changed like Bumper back and front, fender, boot, back and front headlights, sides mirrors are all gone. To cut the story short, we agreed for a price and I picked it up, oboy as I dey drive go house car off for road oh, temperature raised, over heating, managed to fix that. The main reason why I opened this post...is for we all to learn a lot from my experience and also transformation of the car. This are pictures of when I got the car, FINAL TRANSFORMATION PICTURES AND VIDEO ON PAGE 13....100% completed... 7 Likes 1 Share

The whole thing was looking so bad compare to what he advertised on nairaland, he used pictures of when he bought it which made the pics of the car looks clean, on getting there myself, it was this that I saw, so since it's a cheap buy, I decided to buy it, I was told of a guy who Transform anything driven, that he is the best at car transformation, like upholstery work, body work, good paint oven bake jobs, mechanical and upgrades to newer models,so I contacted him, delivered the car for him to inspect and gave me an estimate... 2 Likes

To tell u guys the truth, after buying it, that period I regretted it, cuzz the car even looks worse in person than pictures, the pictures are looking better sef, so I was like OK, make I just spend money get am to Tokunbo Standard which I know it's possible, I love clean cars, I actually was buying it for my babe, so I needed to surprise her with it, but who go give someone this kind thing as gift, she go swear for me na, so I had a budget to bring it back to Tokunbo standard, that's when the guy gave me the list of what was bad and needed to be replaced, na there I know say na scrap I buy oh, my people... Although the Engine and gear is OK.... Apart from that, nothin works, not even the radio or A. C 18 Likes 2 Shares |

That Color was a turn OFF, a big Turn off for me, the color is the worse color a car will ever have, and I needed the best paint job in Nigeria, when I investigated, I was told Sikkens Paint is the best and the most expensive, I love good thing oh, I asked for a black Sikkens paint Oven baked, I asked to be upgraded from a Crv 2007 to 2011 model, that's to say front and back Bumper, bonnet, front light, front grill needs upgrades, not forgetting the much talked about Android / Tesla screen, and upholstery work and interior design.... 4 Likes 1 Share |
