Try drinking a cup of coffee or two next time.

Looks great, but 8 hrs is waaay toooo long for wash and wax.

I don't see any tire dressing.

I had to clean the trim...and door handles and all other areas where I had wax dry up...That took a while..

I also did the interior...Didn't take pics because of me still having the stock headunit...Gonna take some pics of the sucker after the upgrade!

I don't drink coffee.

O.K. I see, our cars are never really done, huh? It will look beautifull after you do polish 'em. You'll have to post up more pics after.

Thanks for the compliments guys
No, no, no!!! Buy a REAL Camera. Camera phone photos suck no matter what the brand. Descent point and shoot Digi Cams are down to insane prices... like $129 for 7.1 megapixels. Do your car and hard work right by taking descent photos!

Compliments on the hard work... too bad we can't tell the difference because of the camera used.

Can't really tell due to the picture quality, but I might be able to see it in person at the mini meet... I'll bring my camera and we'll repost for other members.

Don't let the nay-sayers get to you bro, 8 hours washing and waxing is an accomplishment. The car looks great.
