Below is how the engine currently looks after a small tidy up and nice freshly redone rocker cover in crinkle red. Oil cap in pic is just off an old civic coupe I used to own and will be replaced before engine goes back into car.

As I mentioned in original post, inside the chassis and any space that could take it really has been sprayed in a wax coating (also done by MVB). Pic below shows the wax coating inside the rear quarter panel.

I am getting the oem ek9 alloys ceramic coated this week. Getting them done now so they can go straight onto the car once the car has its fresh respray in championship white. Below is some pictures I took of one of the alloys today but all of the alloys are in a similar condition and fairly mint. Will put up pictures again once they have been ceramic coated. Once the car itself has been resprayed, I will have to wait a month before the car itself can also receive a ceramic coating.
