Quick...where are my sunglasses!?! ....ah, that's better!

The light reflecting off ur car is blinding!

I guess with such a dark colored car (and BSP is one of my favorites, I might add) knowing how to detail it yourself is a real plus, and obviously you do! Nice job!

I really need to do this to my car. The detail is superb. How much did the supplies run you, if you don't mind me asking?

sure no problem..

This could get you started:

PC7424 - $105
#80 - $15
8006 Pad - $10
LC orange pad - $8
Meguiar's Ultimate Kit - $25 (includes Nxt 2.0, UQD and 4 more random items)
12 pk Vroom Towels - $10

That is however the MINIMUM things that I would buy to fully detail the exterior...
