My 09 PMM coupe with hfp susp. and tint

Hey guys, finally got around to taking some pics of my new 09 ppm coupe with hfp susp. and tint.

Car has around 200 miles on it now. Just did a detail last night. claybar, polish with einzette 1z, wax with collinite IW 845.

excuse the pics, just a p&s, i'm no photographer.

It's funny. The more I look at the new Si wheels, the more I like them. THat's not to say I wouldn't switch them out for a set of aftermarkets ASAP though.

don't you mean PMM?

as in Polished Metal Metallic aka, the '08 Accord's newest color. i worked @ my local Honda dealer for 18 months as a lot porter. i know colors

looks good tho.. i do prefer the '09 sedans to the coupes; just my opinion no offense & congrats on owning newness. i miss 'new car scent' even tho its semi-toxic to be honest. lol!!

p.s.- on topic: suspension looks good!! wait a couple months for everything to settle & you'll be extremely pleased i think. i <3 my HFP suspension!!

thanks for the replies. and yes i mean PMM, lol.

when I was going to purchase an SI, was going to get an 08, but could only find black (too much to maintain). I decided to see what was new for 09, and originally was kind of iffy about the new front end and wheels.

but they look great in person, and it has really grown on me.

future plans, probably a set of black traklites when the tires wear out. motor is staying stock for now, maybe a shortshifter. haven't even vtec'd yet!

Good on no VTEC. Wait til' 600. That color, as weird as it may sound, looks good stock. I thought GG did also. Just throw some red emblems on that bitch and debadge the 'Civic'

Nice choice, even though I'm the '08 body style fan.
