What'd you do to your accord today?

It must have been painted. From my understanding only the silver and black coupes got the dark grey interior

It's Canada though... you never know what kind of strange things go on there

the retro doesn't look too bad, those are the morimoto mini h1's? what shrouds were you trying to use with them?

Yep. MH1. Mini graphite. the translucent ones. It's functional. and thats what matters..

Didn't using newspapers mix ink in with the cleaning solution when they got wet? I've never heard of that...

Well, there was one guy at the car detailing shop once told me that it works the best in order to get rid of those oil films on a windshield. And it has been doing it's job pretty amazingly. Idk if it's the ink or the texture of a news paper that does the job. U should.try it one day.

Having worked with newsprint as a daily job. That stuff is baked into the paint then flash frozen to make it stick. Sometimes doesnt work. Anything alcohol or ether based will eat the ink. We used to clean the print rollers with diesel fuel

We'll keep the heated seats/mirrors as well.

Aimed the retro's up a little bit, and set all the tires at 35psi.

Hmm I might look into that then, thanks.

I have always used newspapers to clean the windows, BUT, I would suggest using just the black and white pages, nothing with colour in it, because the colour does bleed out.

I helped my 8thgen friend picked up a 2001 accord V6 coupe EX-L yesterday for his winter project. Interior is 10/10 like day 1 and seems like nobody ever sat in it before, exterior is 9/10 with few nicks. Tranny is smooth and the car has low mileage at 140,000kms / 87,000miles on it. Car is fully loaded from 6disc cd changer to black leather heated seats and silver interior trim.

thanks for the help james!! im enjoying the 6th gen.
