Thanks for the comments guys, I also wanted a modded one and a standard one but cant help myself.
I do have a set of wings west sideskirts I might sell as I will probably be getting a lip kit from Fiberworx for the silver lude.
If it was me I would have sprayed the white lude in Honda premium white pearl instead of championship white but I still love it., maybe one day it will get another respray when needed.

The door is not off colour in person and the gap a long the bottom of the door to the side skirt is just the side skirt needed fixing up properly, it has flexed down a bit!

I think I am going to do the rocker cover Ferrari red pearl along with the calipers.

So yesterday I took the seats out and gave it a go of apple snow foaming and scrubbing the seats, then lightly jet blasting them and finally a wet vac.
The interior was quite dirty, to much for my liking.
I left them most of the day to dry.

I think they came up well for 24 year old seats.
I then attacked the carpets inside, the seat back panels and quickly the boot.

Today I pre-washed the engine bay and again snow foamed.
Still needs work to bring it up to a good standard but im looking forward to it.
After I washed the car, used a fallout remover all over, clayed the car then used the snow foam once again for a final wash and microfiber towel to dry.

Next I will get onto the interior dash and panels etc.

Always been worried to do that to an engine. Is it ok to get it that wet?

Got a serious itch for another 4th gen to sit alongside my Type S and this thread isn't helping. Might have to be a fresh import though.

There is some debate about this, it does depend on the engine, I jet blast engines regularly. There is some engines we don't do it to but these preludes are old school. I did cover up air filter, you can also cover fuse box if your worried and our ecu isn't in the engine bay.

So ended up buying these out of the 2 examples I put up on the exterior category.

Think I made the right choice, what do you think.

Nothing much going on at the moment, ordered some new discs and pads for the rear, engine dress up bolts and rocker cover paint.
Other than that I have been messing around with my new phone camera (S20+ 5g)
Feel free to use them, also if anyone wants to make a desktop background etc, I can send the full res photos to you.
