It's my missus that put me off the colour initially, she wanted me to spray it black... So far-

That OBX exhaust is a nice bit of kit. I approached them to be a UK dealer for them and they weren't interested in having a UK/ European dealer.

New exhaust is on, sounds beefy with a rasp when vtec kicks in... I had 2.5" straight through, decat.. Loud but not intrusive... Car def feels happier and quicker..
My mate was there in his yellow nsx having some bits done too.... Took a snap for you honda lovers.. It a beautiful facelift model..

Thanks Merlin, next job is the wheels in white. I bought a set of Atr rims to have refurbed and prof powder coated in gloss white. Then I'll sell of the current motegis, which are in good shape, Barr a bit of discolouration on the centre caps. Which can be sorted cheaply. If anybody is interested or wants first dibs, let me know..... £150 with tyres
