Spent 1.5 hours detailing my CarbonEFX Hood last night. Its been on my car for a year and figured it was due for a little TLC.

Nu Finish:





After Nu Finish:

 

The next step was Meguires Show Car Hand Glaze:



After Glaze:

 

Finally I finished with Meguires High Tech Yellow #26 Wax and another once over with the Hand Glaze.

Here is the finished result.





Now I just need to finish off the rest of the car.....

 

Nice. Can't wait to see it in person!

 

Now come do mine Bish!

 

Riiiiiiiiight. It will cost you a jack.

 

Sweet! Looks good Dubbya!

OT, what hood pins are those? Never seen them before.

By hand, or orbital?

You've officially inspired me to get off my lazy a$$ and wax my CF hood.

 

The hood pin idea I borrowed from Flava. I got all the stuff at Summit Racing. Its a bastardized child of 2 differnt hood pin kits.

I did all that by hand. Thanks for the props.

 

Same here, I am lazy though so Im using the orbital for most of it.


Custom Hood pins FTW!

 

lol flava's car looks like a panda bear

He was refering to a Hydraulic Jack that I just purchased from him.
Get those homosexual ideas out of you mind for a couple of minutes, I know its hard for you but you must realize we do not all think as you do.

 

QFT. Save the drama for OT

 

It Looks Good Any Pic Off The Entire Car

 

Wow you really did some hard work on that hood and it shows, looks very nice.
