      The car looks amazing!! I'm probably the only one sitting here mainly because I'm a Honda fanatic. I'm lovin' the S2k steering wheel and seats!

      On the topic of white paint... you might make it a little more glossy by experimenting with a few different polishes (M80, M83) and LSP's (M21) but overall you're pretty close to as good as it'll get. Keep in mind, white will not or cannot shine and have depth like a darker color can. Your car DOES have depth and gloss, just not as much as a darker colored car does and thats okay. It's part of owning a white car. You want to be able to use your car's hood as a mirror? Buy a black car lol. Once again, the car looks awesome!!!

        If your swirl free and want more gloss, try NXT.....

        For what it's worth, for white, it really pops and you did a great job on that car.

          The Lude looks good! I have a white 4th Gen. I really like 5th Gens with the OEM skirts on them. Nice to see you've modded the car with good taste. I really like the wheels too, they look good on it.

          I always use #80 on my car and I find it makes white look nice and glossy, you may want to give it a try.

          Great job on the detail!

              it looks great, the reflections can be seen and if its swirl free. I have never used #2 or #26. when i had a white car, i found #80 followed by Gold Class Liquid Wax (but Nxt Gen 2.0 maybe better now) (its not completely swirl free as my products were limited and the paint is solid)
