wax your car!!!!

but yours is a 01, so if there´s rust it means that u have NEVER ever washed or waxed it, got some huge rock chips on it, and drive by the sea in crazy weather very day

Rust is my mortal enemy. I do my best to get rid of it as soon as I find it.

Don't want my ITR to look like those Hyundai Pony's I see driving around.

My CRX has rust on the rear fender lips, esp. on the passenger side.
OH! You meant the ITR?

When I had my 97 ITR I got little spots of rust in the winter which may have been caused by road salt, although the rust spots were easily removed by waxing the car. I have seen this on other white cars as well up here in the Northlands.

The R was a blast in the snow!
