i want it to look better. im tryn to find cheap paint to paint it the right way. but its like 300-500 a gallon and i need 2 gallons i think.
thinking about putting a 93 lx rear bumper cover on it but i want to retain the 4eyes unless i switch to a 93 cobra front bumper

Looks good, I'd keep it how it is. I really like the 2 tone.

You should only need one gallon of paint and one gallon of clear unless youre doing a single stage paint.
If you plan on keeping it white paint shouldnt be expensive at all. White is the cheapest color to buy.

I bought a gallon of paint for my car and it was less than $200 and my car is wild strawberry (metallic dark red).
