Suspicious trace of someone removing the hose band in the past.
No big drama as I will be replacing the radiator with Koyo Racing Rad and all of the coolant hoses any way.









Windshield lower cowl looked to be removed in the past.
I can see some of the yellow clips not installed properly and the cowl is just flapping.








Probably for the same reason, the rubber parts on the upper retainer was dislocated and just hanging there.















While I like the idea of all these aero wiper blades and the aftermarket ones, I don’t like the design and height of the universal locking mechanism.
Too high for NSX bonnet/hood and as sure enough, scratching the back side of the bonnet.
Metallic Yellow paint is not easy to colour match without painting the whole panel or the entire body......

Placed order for the JDM spec wiper blades with proper ‘wing/spoiler’ on the driver side.
For some reason, much cheaper than ordering from Japan.

Message to the owner;
Unfortunately, they are on back order until around 07/Oct so if they don't arrive in time,
please order the following from your local Honda dealer.
About GBP13 each.
76620-SL0-309 x 1 and 76630-SL0-309 x 1
The last 3 digits have to be 309 otherwise, you won't get the JDM spec with proper spoiler at the driver side.
UK spec is shorter and already superseded that both the driver and passenger side use the same one without the spoiler at the driver one.











Windshield upper faster/retainer looked to be touched in the past.
They were not securely installed at several places.
