So purdy...

Looks great man. Did you polish your AC lines? Those are the worst. They look so good polished, but just -one- time using your AC .... and boom - they are oxidized again lol. I used to fight with those on my old Si all the time.

Yes... I polished them. I used a dremel with felt polishing wheels where possible and by hand with a microfiber cloth everywhere else. I use Blue Magic metal polish. I wipe the condensation off after using the A/C when I get home.

Gosh, you are keen and there is nothing basically wrong with having pride in your work. However do not acquire OCD in the process. Could you cover the A/C lines with some sort of insulation to prevent the condensation? I think it would improve the A/C efficiency too.

After my post ( # 13653 ) I noticed the link to your build. It is brilliant and excellence abounds. I am bowing from the ankles in your direction. Please ignore what I said .. it could be considered insulting but was not meant to be so.

So I'm thinking about buying the clear side markers for my oceanic FRS but for some reason I think they just make it look to bland. To me, only on the blue twins do the orange actually add something to the car rather than just look bad. It adds a bit of color to the car, in my opinion. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
