Anyone getting lots of dirt/debris of the scooped sections on the side of your Integra?
Everytime I wash it this section requires extra work. I've never experienced this with another car. Our Macan has side blades which are another issue, but don't seem to get as dirty.

Haven't had issues with this yet, despite very dusty car (neighbour is putting a pool in). The only issue I've had so far with washing is the ever-present soap/water on the top inside of the hatch (not inside the seal, so no leaks), as well as the classic water dripping out of the side mirror housings, which leaves streaks on the drive home after a wash.

I think a monthly touchless carwash package might be the best bet for the upkeep. I subscribed to one through and app called EverWash. Less than $30 a month for their Ultimate which runs $17 for each wash normally. Figure I'd go 2 or 3 times a week.

I also use the touchless washes when in a rush, but I found that they really don't do anything to the wheels, which end up building up a pretty thick layer of grime after 1000-2000 miles.

Yeah it is just for up keep. When it's 90+ outside I don't want to wash the car if I don't have to. Also the only shade I get is when it's dark out.

It's not uncommon for certain areas of a car, such as the side scoops or blades, to accumulate more dirt and debris compared to other parts. These areas are often designed to enhance the vehicle's aerodynamics or provide a specific aesthetic appeal, but they can also act as collection points for dirt, dust, and road grime.
The design and positioning of these scooped sections on your Integra may be such that they are exposed to more airflow and turbulence, which can result in a greater buildup of dirt and debris. Additionally, the shape and contours of the scoops may make it difficult for water and cleaning agents to effectively rinse away the accumulated dirt during a standard car wash.
