I like how the mud guards compliment the AE kit.

Nice

My last three cars were white so this time I tried something different...Black.

I noticed your "Mods I want" section. You will love the RSB and FSTB, that combination makes the car feel so much better. I'll be installing the Stillen short-throw shifter next week along with a Y-pipe. I'll let you know how it goes.

Yeah thanks...that was a pleasant surprise for me.
I didn't even want 'em cause I had never seen 'em.
Plus I was thinking they were black rubber flaps just hanging off the car. They gave 'em to me free and
"Ah loik it alot"

Thanks annimax. I have a couple more non-digital pics (analog?) that I want to put up. There was a double rainbow and I took a pic so that my Max looks like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. It is sweeet, but I have to scan it when I get around to it.

i still dont get how much better zaino can be compared to other polishes/waxes you can find at ur local autoparts store. ive heard so many people praise it, but can it really be that much better? would u even be able to tell the difference on a white car?

I have had six black cars and each one needed constant attention. I found that wet-sanding the finish when purchased, and then keeping it up with the Mother's 3-step process made it look like glass. At custom car shows I would buy a bottle of the famous no-name stuff and never found it to work!!! I tried Zaino and followed the directions exactly and found it to look better and was much easier to do. (You don't even wipe of the precleaner, but add wax over it) Try it.....you will honestly like it but you must follow all directions exactly even using dishwashing liquid to remove all old waxes and polishes.

Thanks for the kudos.....I've been detailing cars for close to 16 years (got my 1st car at 15) and my father works for Buick so cars were always clean and ready to sell in case the offer came in.

I like Zainos leather cleaner, precleaner, z-2, and instant detailer.

I like www.griotsgarage.com for wheel cleaner, and undercarriage detailer. (use it for wheelwells and they look brand new again )

and truthfully I use some purple aresol can of tire dressing from pepboys. I like it because its shiny and it stays put, not all over the paint. Glass cleaner and Mequirs Scratch Remover work well when needed and don't need the additional expense that bigger names add. Good luck and download your finished pictures.

Hey Ludacris, Is your car lowered? That image makes your car look dropped.

I don't really have a true album yet. I try an take a photo or two once car is detailed weekly and then delete the old ones. Photopoint has even decided my account is worthless unless I pay and will soon stop any link ability. Thanks though....
