Nice 'n' Shiney
So last Friday I finally got the chance to fully detail the exterior of my car which is the first time I detailed it since I bought it in December. 
So I got down and dirty and went the whole 9 yards in detailing the exterior. Started with a wash, then claybar, then another wash, dry, prewax cleaner, prewax glaze, wax. Six long hours and it was finally complete!
Hope you guys enjoy!!! Nothing fancy here but just a nice clean LS430.

I saw the Gordon Biersch sign and thought the area it looked familiar. Yeah that fountain is pretty cool, but traffic can be an issue. I work very close to there, well I work from home but once a week I go into the office at Bank of America at Corporate/Legacy.

Thanks for the compliments guys!! It was alot of hard work but there's nothing better than to baby your own ride rather than trust it in the hands of others which in most cases, don't really care to pick out the details that you, yourself can.

It looks great. Makes me wish I held out for white myself. I have a question. What is in the area of the front emblem...looks like a rectangular outline. Is that part of the laser cruise control?
