Had a day of detailing the other day thought I'd put up the pictures. My car can hardly hold a clean exterior so I love wiping the wax off and admiring the shine. As always though a day or two after washing it, it rained for about 15 minutes and was clear again. Luckily my wax held up and getting the water spots off wasn't too big of a problem.

When I get rims I'm going to be getting some blue Rays lugs to match my upcoming theme. My car isn't staying black on black for long

Thanks guys.

Ya Ricky I got the hood in early October, have had headers soon after.

Phenom, ya it'll be sick. I'm having my fascia repainted, having the rims (still trying to decide between two) powdercoated and having some mesh put in behind the fascia. It'll be looking good I can't wait

Ya I was just going to wash real quick, then saw all the chips in my bumper and decided to polish it. Figured why not polish the hood while I'm at it, and that led to the whole car. Had my wax with me so hell, if I'm already putting that much time might as well wax it as well.

Only spent about 3 1/2 hours for the whole thing, including vacuuming everything except the trunk
