Very nice, Phil. I dearly do love white! Those green accented wheels are...different. The owner must be Irish!

"Different." Good choice in words. Beautiful detail. (I'm not sure the car deserves it.) Why no Sonax on the wheels? :) I'm guessing that the Sonax makes less of a difference on black wheels. I was planning to keep using P21s on my black wheels, and the Sonax on the silver wheels on my BMW. You may have reinforced my decision.
