I didn't get any pics of the interior after it was finished because it got dark and I got pressed for time building a motor, etc. I got about 80 percent of the scratches/swirls out of it. Customer seemed happy.





*note* this was my FIRST time with a rotary, and I must say, I was very scared, but half way through the detail, I became very confident and with just one pass with it, I removed roughly 80 percent of the swirls/scratches. (I know there's still a few left, but customer only paid for 1 step+wax instead of 3 step, so this is what they got) :)
 
I don't like Hondas one bit, but I would definitely daily one of these. It's a very well built, luxurious car for what it is. I liked it.
 
Beautiful Job, I'm sure she was happy with it. Considering how it looked before, they better take care of it. :p
 
thanks bro. let me tell you...a rotary is SOOO much easier than a DA. I'm never looking back. In the beginning, there was steam coming off the pad though because I didn't know how hot it got, but I kept plenty of lube on there and it never happened again lol
 
I was looking at one of those with a 6 spd before I bought my Civic but it ended up being out of my price range. Good turnaround on the black, it looks great!
