Car looks great!

Btw, if you want a bit more permanent solution to the bleached trim, try black trim dye (or Kiwi black shoe dye if you can't find trim dye).

I've used both and never buy Back to Black anymore. It's just too temporary. I might as well use baby oil.

Dye can get messy. I practiced on a part over the sink first and then keep a cotton towel in my other hand just in case of drips.

it is a Canadian car so in km's it has 130,000 or around 65,000 miles, aswell the mothers back to black worked great on the exterior trim, for the engine bay I also used mothers back to black for the plastic and used turtle wax tire shine for the rubber parts

love the stock look, few suggestions though. I small drop would really set it off, scrape the dealer stickers off, and get rid of that blue Si badge and get an OEM replacement.
