Thanks! I knew it would be a little different but it was the closest match I could find to my NGK, calipers, and other blue items under the hood and in the trunk, Plus I think it is the flash of the camera making it really really stand out
Those skirts needed a clear coat bad. The coat that paint scratch sent me sucked. it needed so many buffs and didnt shine right. I bought some Spray Max 2k Catalyzed clear coat and it is amazing, no buffing needed and dried in a few hours. LOVE IT. only 20 a can too

hows yours looking?
im 16 and unfortunately dont have a lude yet but i really really want one and deff see myself with one in the not too distant future drove my cuz's once and fell in love with it. Before i drove it i was never really into honda's and called em ricers and all that, but after i felt that beast of a V-tec i realized why people do what they do to them and i feel like you can never go wrong with a honda now.

that is awesome man, you gotta get yourself one! i was 14 when i saw a 2001 sitting at a honda dealership brand new and wanted it soooo bad. When i grew up and got some money I found mine in west virginia about 350 miles away, talked the dealer down 3 grand and got it for only 11,000 with 48k on it! I got really lucky. you cant go wrong with a honda. This is my second one and no matter how rich I get I will always have one. my sister has a new civic, ive got the prelude, my dad has the new accord, and my moms got the new crv. can never have too many hondas

i definitely see myself getting one, if i can get the money for one. its hard to get a good one with low miles for under like 8k where i live in jersey. but im willing to pay every penny for one, its kinda my affordable dream car now

thanks! Yea I would definitely get three man. There is no harm on applying it and sanding, then making sure you have a good even coat over all the pieces. there is no need to waxer and degreaser. and dont buy their clear coat. get the spray max 2k then you wont need to buff or anything bro. let me know how it turns out!! make sure you use the adhesion promoter and flexible primer though!! and take your time!!
