Thought I show the ample cargo space in the front.

After washing, proceeded to clay entire car including windows, wheels, etc..

Car is clean and prepped for 50/50 shot of the hood. Taped over the edge of the clear bra to prevent fraying the edges while polishing.

50/50 of the hood

Notice the deeper red on the right vs the the unpolished left.

50/50 Rear Lid

50/50 Rear Quarter Panel

Exhaust Before

Exhaust After

Engine cleaned and dressed

Applied DoDo Juice Supernatural and pulled car out in the sun to wipedown to make sure I don't miss any spots

After

Love that carnauba glow

Remember the wheels before?

Here they are after clay and wax

Yes that is 220 MPH

Ready for Take Off!

Got to have an Engine Pic

The car looks great. Too bad you aren't in the Nurnburg area so I could hire you to detail my ride when I am at war. I have a feeling that my wife is going to let our car to to pot over the course of the next year! Which RO polisher are you using?
