Got her all cleaned up!

[StormtrooperTK421]

Finally got the chance to wash and detail the Integra after getting the black sideskirts, blacked out front Acura emblem, blacked out A Spec emblems, blacked out rear emblem (with black vinyl removed - looks WAY better IMO), protective film and tint installed. I love the contrast of the pearl white and the black.

I've also wrapped the trim around the shifter with carbon fiber vinyl, but it's already starting to come off, so I am going to redo it and then post later.

I'm thinking about upgrading to the 19" glint black wheels, but I do love the shark gray wheels. What do you guys think?

White looks great on the Teg! Have you considered wrapping the roof and side mirrors in Gloss Black?

 

[StormtrooperTK421]

I actually have considered the roof. In fact, I traded in a 2022 Civic Sport Touring in pearl white for the Integra and I had wanted to wrap the roof of that as well.

I am in contact with a local shop about wrapping specific trim pieces inside of the car and I will discuss with them the prospect of wrapping the roof and the side mirrors as well. I have seen the plastic covers for the mirrors, but I think a wrap would just look cleaner.

Thanks for the suggestion!

She looks fantastic. I have been thinking about getting 19"s as well, but I am not sure that I want to pay $2700 for them. I might see what Tire Rack has.

Yeah, I hear ya...They're very expensive. I think the dealership wanted $3,700 with tires included. Also, I 'm not even sure yet if I like them. I can't tell from any pics or videos I've found if they're black with machined faces or if they're just a gloss black and I'm just seeing a reflection on the surface.

I'll chime in that the "shark grey" looks quite complete on a PWP integra. I may be biased though

Upgrading the mirror caps 100% recommended.

I think they look better on the white than they do on my LCM, because of the contrast. I'm struggling with the decision to get new wheels. One of the decisions I can't seem to make is whether to go completely black, or a much lighter silver or machined/raw.

That looks great. Does it cover all of the white well? Does any peek through?

You have to remove the oem one and install this one. They don’t go on top of the other ones.

Oh really? That's different than the OEM covers. Can you post a link?

Was getting the rear emblem off pretty straight forward? I want to do it but afraid of the retainer clips like the 10th gen COVID had

I actually had the dealership do it for me, but I'm sure there's an easy way to do it at home. I've seen people use dental floss, but the rear emblem sits in an emblem "indent" rather than on a flat part of the vehicle so it might be tricky.

Ok sweet thanks man!
