03 Element

Looks great.

How was all that cladding to work with?
I noticed that the newer Elements have dropped it just like Chevy's Avalanche did. I guess people aren't fond of having a whole bunch of plastic hanging off their cars these days.

It is a pretty sweet defense against shopping carts and such though.

My brother has an 09 Element and even though it has much less trim than that 03 model, it still has quite a bit. Honda likes using trim on their SUV's, it's so annoying.

Really great work, those wheels were nasty in the Before pictures.
 
Great work! I'm in the middle of an Element detail as well and I'm wondering how you dealt with the rubber floors.
 
Got an 04 coming in next week, same green. I've been warned by its new owner that it had been through the wringer and I'll have my work cut out for me. I'm up for the challenge, but yeah, any hints for the interior rubber would be helpful. I don't use Folex on non-porous surfaces, diluted LATA is pennies per quart.
 
I am not positive, but i was working at a Honda dealership when they first came out and I think one of the selling points was that you could hose it out. Never saw it done though.
