2003 Orient Blue over dove grey 6spd

[cakM3]

I had the great misfortune of owning two blue cars with grey interior. Definitely the most disgusting interior color.

I have to agree... I found it was way too much inside.

Congrats on your new project Stuart

The grey is def my least fav

Rob, I really would have liked to have had my Pilot in the pretty blue color. But it was only avail w grey. I insisted on black interior. That left me with black, white or silver as the only color choices. Black is also a fav...so, we all know what happened there

Reminds me of my old Orient blue car. Also came with gray, luckily I swapped to alcantara when I had it. Alcantara is definitely my favorite interior on the e46

Washed car. Ran clay bar over every panel and window. Washed car again. They some wax. It’s starting to shine and bead water. Paint no longer feels like a scrubbing pad.

I won’t attempt any real paint correction until everything mechanical is done.

That paint definitely needs a good polish, at the very least. I'm sure you'll have it looking gorgeous when you're done.

I’m not experienced with paint correction. It is one of those things I kinda should know but fear screwing up

So frustrating that they only have those combinations. Our gray interior was pre-trashed by the previous owner... we were ok with that because we knew we'd trash it anyway. So nice to not have to worry about keeping it clean. We use it like a pickup truck

Ditto here, Kristen got me a buffer and all the stuff to do it probably 5 years ago by now. I was going to experiment on the old Honda Accord winter beater we had back then but she sold it before I got a chance. I'll have to hit up the MDX with it one of these days. It's kinda hard to screw up silver... I hope

The other lens came in

I replaced the windshield trim and cleaned under it. It likely was the original. There was a ton of sludge and cosmoline. Also started cleaning engine compartment
