Decided I would give the civic it's service yesterday as it was a cloudy day and not raining! I also replaced a faulty Rear lambda sensor and also fitted my new wheels that I picked up on Sunday.
I spent a good 5 hours protecting them for the winter months to come. Wheels were cleaned, De-tarred, clayed, polished twice then 3 coats of Poorboys Pink wheel sealant and then a final coat was applied and left to cure for 16 hours then buffed off ready to be fitted.
The funny thing is, I will be getting rid of them in January for some new wheels, again!
Few snaps of this weekends work, I know the car is filthy, we've had nothing but bad weather this week!
after the treatment, didnt take loads as i had the door open and I was letting the heat out, apparently!
jacked up looking filthy, faulty sensor out and new one fitted, thanks Yella for the replacement!
can tell which is bad and which is good
dont look to bad for 4,800 miles
no metal filings attached
4,800 miles later the Miller oil was out, looked spot on in the pan with no muck in it at all! fresh Millers Nanodrive went straight back in with a new oem honda filter
all finished and back on her new wheels, fitted a Jap import plate a few week ago too.

I am after a facelift rear silencer for my car, I've been thinking the rear silencer doesn't look right so I looked at my old cosmic premier pics, it showed that perhaps i have the Preface-lift silencer fitted?
The silencer fitted below looks different. The tips are further apart and also look rolled in at the ends where as the cosmic tips look smaller , slash cut type and sit lower on the silencer. the below sits fairly high and the whole silencer sits quite far in the back bumper where as the cosmic sits proud a bit.

It's like I have one of these fitted:
But i need one of these:
has any one got a spare facelift silencer kicking around there garage/shed?
