thats awesome mate the paint makes quite a big difference, still nice and subtle coding tho.

you'll need to invest in a shammy, makes it even shinier :D

whats next for it?

I washed mine too, but as soon as i'd finished i had to head out to the hospital and it's all dead flies now. :cry:

Yours is looking lovely though. Good leather shammy will add an extra sparkle to it.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

A leather is a cars worst enemy. It causes loads of very fine swirls in the Clear coat and if it picks up the tiniest bit of grit say goodbye to the shine. Next you will be telling me you use a spounge!!!!

A microfibre all the way and give it a pat to dry. Then a good quality polish followed by a wax and finally something like nattys liquid mirror shine (or something like that) for that mirror, see your face in it shine.

Looking spic and span there.

I use Autoglym Aqua Wax, excellent product for those of us who have better things to do.........................like driving it soon after cleaning! :thumbsup:

Dunno not really thought about it all mods need to be cheap, maybe putting my open cone in the wing but will need someone to do a how to first cause i am hopeless at stuff like that
