    402,000 Mile Acura Legend

    Those who have been around for a few years will remember my post from when I turned over 300,000 miles in my 1994 Acura Legend LS coupe. http://www.autopia.org/forum/click-brag/99349-300-000-miles-showroom-clean.html Someone resurrected the thread and asked for an update. Well, here you...

    Update on the 350k Legend

    Thread from a year ago for those who never saw it... http://www.autopia.org/forum/click-brag/99349-300-000-miles-showroom-clean.html This morning I threw a coat of Meguiars NXT wax on the old Acura and drove down the street to Papago Park for a couple of pictures. She's showing some wear...

    Need a carpet detail - Tempe AZ

    Is there anyone in the Phoenix area who could work on the carpets in a car I recently picked up? It's a 94 Acura Legend GS 6-speed, same color as my LS coupe 6-speed, but the carpets have seen better days. I've been working on the paint this week (clay bar, Meguiar's NXT wax, etc) but I...

    1991 Prelude Si 4WS Engine Detail...

    The 1991 Prelude Si 4WS (four-wheel-steering) I recently picked up was very clean -- everywhere except the engine. I'm a perfectionist and an obsessive-compulsive detailer, so there was no way I could stand to leave it looking anything less than showroom fresh! Here's the process I took to...

    High Mileage Acura Legend + Poorboys

    I took my Legend coupe in to my brother's auto accessory shop after hours and gave it a little TLC. The Poorboys Natty's paste was was applied and removed by hand. The car's paint is all original "desert mist" from 1994. Clear coat is fading on the roof and hood, and the front end has small...

    High-Mileage Legend Coupe 6-speed

    Thought I'd share some current pictures of my old Legend. It's a 1994 LS coupe 6-speed. I've had it for almost four years and I've personally put over 140,000 miles on it. The current odometer reading is: The car is still on its original paint and drivetrain. The hood and roof show...

    The Power of Poorboys -- Lots of pics!

    Just wanted to quickly post my story and a few pics. I have been raised on detailing. My dad was always anal about our cars and we would drive them onto the front lawn and wax them up as a family. The tradition has carried on and I'm every bit as bad -- or worse -- with my OCD. I was a...
