Thank you very much, it's still a work in progress though. I'm waiting on some new front wheel bearings and hubs to land now.
Then I'm planning on replacing the valve stem oil seals next winter, it's burning some oil in VTEC.

Finally started on a job I've been wanting to tackle for ages.
The orange peel on the body was driving me nuts.
I wet sanded a few panels today and cut and buffed them with a denim pad. Pretty happy with the results so far.

Finally got myself a master poly bush kit. Really looking forward to getting them installed.

I also ordered a Hondash V4 the other day. Has anyone else here ever tried it? Looks like a handy piece of kit.

Got a start on installing my polybush kit today.

Installing the new ones is handy, getting the old ones out isn't!

I also did a repair on one of my side skirts that was rattling and driving me nuts.

I've two small wishbone bushes left and one corner is done.
