NOW TO THE FUN PART! EXTERIOR! Unfortunately, I took all before pictures of the door jambs and forgot to get after shots, but everything I took a picture of was either removed or cleaned

The wheels get the best treatment possible, I swear that wheel wasnt floating when I took the picture! :lol:


Taking the wing off, this enables me to polish the trunk lid the correct way.

Last shots for day 1...Still need to go over again with 106ff/white and put LSP on.






After the wing bottom was polished, we re-installed to do the top. The tape is so that I dont hit the already polished fenders while polishing the wing...


Final Rinse Down..


FINALLY FINISHED!!! This is when everything pays off! :nerd:
