Default Washed and shined her up today.

It was a beautiful afternoon today in Dallas. So I took the oppurtunity to give the car her first hand bath today. After the wash I used some Meguiars Gold Class High Gloss Premium Quik Detailer for dark cars which really gave it a wet, dark, and glossy appearance. I promise some day I will use a better camera but here are some iPhone pics of the mirror reflections off of Obsidian after wash and shine. I'm planning to install the headlight protection films tomorrow. Will post up and let you guys know hot it goes. ~Tu

Yeah, I'm Viet by hereditary but still consider myself a natural born American by blood

Wow, I've gotta say that is some impressive observation or is it because of the awesome shine and reflection?

Beautiful shine and beautiful car! You will soon have a fellow Dallasonian with a Nebula Gray F-Sport. I'm expecting it to arrive this week at Sewell. I also saw a really sharp-looking white F-Sport at Eatzi's today while picking up Saturday night dinner. They are all over the place!

Been driving around for a day since I washed her and there are already some bug splatters. Who no what else is also hitting the clear bra that does not stick like dead bugs. For some reason they only hit the clear bra areas, ie back of mirrors and front bumper so I'm guessing clear bra is doing it's job well.
