those plugs look textbook perfect. if you hadn't said 75k miles i would have thought half that. there is almost no ground strap or electrode erosion and the color shows they are perfectly happy.
Technically not sorted but I'm going to let the delrin adapter wear down and just make sure the damper body doesn't rub on the spring and it will be all good as long as the damper body stays painted so it doesn't rust I'm okay.
Yes, the plugs looked great for 96k miles... This car seems veryyyy well maintained by the previous owners and is a one owner car. No need to really change the plugs but I'm just following the maintenance schedule.

I'll found out soon enough. I'm going to pretty pissed if NGK sent me bad gap on correct iridium plugs but somehow I wouldn't be surprised. Never touched or banged the the electrode side... and slid them in on the coil pack side with some needle nose. I made sure this time on the first two cylinders to pay attention and feel it push against the top of the plug as it was about 3/4 down to make sure it is definitely on the plug. Then tightened to hand tight with a 1/4" drive + a quarter turn.
