Dang this paint was beautiful! The color is one of my more favored colors on the road. The other is a metalflake Burgundy put out by Toyota.

New car, owner seeking protection. I opted for a white pad with some FS Body shop Light Compound. Minor swirls here and there. Sealed up with UPP. Quite a car I might add! Very nice line and form, wheels are very nice for stock. I cannot emphasize how beautiful the color is on this V-Tech! The flake was popping even when it was a little dirty, but it really has some shimmer now.

Great work on that Civic. Any blue, black, and red are the most rewarding to detail imho.

I-VTEC is a ****ing joke. It literally means nothing whatsoever. I`ll admit it because it`s fact, and I own the following:

They should have stuck with the actual 3-lobe VTEC instead of half-assing it and just wanting to keep people thinking VTEC still exists. I`m afraid to say that next to the S2K, true VTEC has been shown the door. That aside, HONDAS RULE!



Nice paint work man, I love my car, but silver is SO hard to get to glow.

200 horses out of a little 2 liter is pretty nice, matched with a 6 speed? I`d love to have one!

Wow that IS a sexy color!!!



Even though I like some hondas, I keep remembering the same quote I heard a while back:



VTEC: All the lag, none of the turbo; it`s like waiting for bad sex!
