    HEy all





    I am going to be getting a new 07 honda civic si sedan black soon hopefully tomororw and i i cant wait to detail it. I was noticing when i drove it and saw pics it has a factory decal on it.



    I was wondering what i should do about detailing it, should i go over it or go around it. i have a PC and get the jobs i need done well so now i dont have a rotary.



    Any help woould be greatly appreciated!!

    the pic in th warehouse kind of shows it. its just a vtech decal becase the SI is the higer civic model with about 200 horses.

    Yeah, you can polish and wax right over it. Just use a non abrasive polish, light foam pad, and lower Pc speeds. You will be fine.

    Not the U.S. versions. Only the JDM versions add 15 ponies.

    Add Type-R to it? Or go cross-company and add TRD or GT-R on it...



    Joking aside, I`d remove the sticker because I like it clean. I would remove the nissan symbol on the Z if I could.
