It's hot here! Not as hot as towards Jerry's/Bolton's house, but still warm. We may take a ride towards Plymouth, MA later. Need to stay near the coast. The next few days will be warm. Cooling off (I hope) on Thursday. I'm not ready for temps in the 80's and 90's quite yet.

They look great, Patty! One suggestion, though. I just had my NSX ceramic coated last week using Ceramic Pro, and the detailer said I should never use detailing spray on it, as it traps small particles and will cause scratches. This is particularly noticeable in a black car such as mine. You might also want to do a Google search such as this: https://www.google.com/search?q=cera...hrome&ie=UTF-8
There are several videos there that cover methods of cleaning a ceramic coated finish. Worth a look!

It seems like we went from winter to summer, spring is the shortest time of the year now.

Your cars look great Patty I don't know how you keep the rock chips away.
Beautiful here today, put a little over 150 miles on the S today.

The NSX has under 5,000 miles and the S2000 only has around 38,000 miles. Also the S2000 has already been hail damaged and mostly repainted after those repairs. The S2000 has clear bra on the hood, bumper, front sides to the wheels and the mirror backs.


^7-13-2006. Hail at my sister's house in Colorado Springs made a mess of it.


^9-8-2016. New hood and lots of repainting.



^9-9-2016.

I didn't know that had happened to your S. Did they fix your hood or replace it? It's cool seeing the aluminum hood without paint.

New hood and new trunk lid. The only parts not dented were the plastic bumpers. The windshield didn't break but they put in a new one since they had to take the dented molding off. The top wasn't damaged. My Kawasaki dirt bike in the back of the blue truck was damaged, too, as was that truck and the other motorcycle in it. I got a new seat and an new light/front plate for the KLX 300R.
