Still contemplating the WRAP.

Added this (2010) summer:

New OEM Tie Rods
Megan Header
18x7.5" +30 Volk TE37's.
5% tint all around, 20% front-side windows.

Shifter cut down 2.5"

you can see how much worse the clearcoat has become:

My god fix the peeling hood. Rest of the car looks great tho

 

[ZFreak]

I'm debating on fixing it. I may get a WRAP instead. They last 5-7 years. I won't have this car for that long (it would have another 300,000k on it by then). We shall see.

Looks great besides for the clearcoat in some places man!

The funny thing is there is another 98 5 spd EX 4dr for sale at a lot in a nearby city (for $2500 with 197k)... same color, SAME peeling clearcoat on the roof, hood, and trunk. Sad that Honda doesn't acknowledge there is a problem.

Here's the Link:

EDIT>>> and I'm thinking of picking it up because it's a 5spd.

Whats the problem? 13 year old car, almost 200k miles. Probably seen a lot of sun, road debris and owner probably didnt wax it enough. Id say theres no issue except normal wear and tear.
