Bushell's OEM+ Nine


Nice car mate. Like the attention to detail.

I see what you mean about the tyres. They look OK lowered, imagine rubbish at standard ride height.

Out of interest, are those headlights prefacelight or facelift? As they look extremely clear. I have a prefacelift 9 and my headlights look musty and cloudy. May need a machine polish..
 
Yeah a 50 profile would probably look out of place at standard ride height to be honest.

Its a pre facelift bud, thanks, yeah they are clean as like, not sure if they have been replaced or just been sanded but they look good haha.
 
Fitted the new engine mount last weekend,



Then it was time for the MOT, passed no problem :)





Was bored last Sunday and it was nice weather so found something to clean, polished all round the boot and gave the interior a quick hoover and the plastics a wipe down :)







Then got an alignment today and took it for a wee drive, will take some getting used to after driving my ej for so long haha.

 
Not much new on the project recently, Attended Scottish Car Show with a local group called Outsiders. First time meeting them all and it was a great day. unfortunately I only took one photo and it was of an Eagle.... Prior to the show my brother gave my car a 2 stage machine polish which was then waxed with dodo juice blue velvet which I didn't really like so I put a couple coats of fusso on for the time being.

Still got a rear strut brace to fit courtesy of @Deans96r and a few other bits waiting to be delivered. Of course photos will be to follow once they have been delivered. I had a wee play around with my brothers camera today, not edited any photos so don't be to harsh :)

This ek9 is beautiful such a clean example and really is a credit to yourself

Gorgeous
 
Thanks for the comments people, recently attended a meet for the launch of the new type r, organised by Honda and they wanted a good example of each model in the showroom for a sort of through the ages thing. Some lovely cars there, especially an EF9 which was stunning.

I was delighted to win Car of the Day, thanks to Saqib for the photo's :)

Also fitted my ultra racing strut brace a few weeks ago to, the holes need a bit of fine tuning to get them symmetrical as I only used a drill and a pair of snips o_O
