speaking of caliper paint, mine are black on my PY. how do you get the paint off and restore them to OEM?

Aircraft stripper.... or more ideally.... Sandblast them, just protect the innards of the piston area.

Is the hood faded or was the front bumper/nose re-painted?

Very nice R man!

I must still be a ricer to this day because I actually like the red caliper look. I think it draws attention to the wheels more, and I consider that a good thing because hte OEM wheels look great!

You may want to blur your plates out though next time.

Edit..Looks like your missing the cig lighter too!

Sounds like a great deal, low miles and great price because of an accident yet it was fixed up
Enjoy and keep her safe!

Probably had the Key replaced, ALL 2001 Integras came with the white logo on the keys. 2000 they had the Red Acura Logo, hence your questioning I assume?
