Default BLACK - Cleaned and Detailed - Photos

Got the car nice and shiny. Looks like a chameleon.

It's just so hard to keep it in this kind of shape but when it is oh man it's a stunner.

I have a ton of photos but hand picked a few to put up here in low resolution. All I can say is I love black.

Your right, when the car is polished it looks beautiful, and today I was bored and just done polishing the car, just to go out tonight for our local cruise and get caught in the rain. The car is meant to drive, so little rain won't hurt her, and tomorrow another bath and wipe down.

I usually do it myself but I was visiting family (no supplies available) and they swore by this local place. They are the ones who did the whole wax / detail job for me and it cost me under $30. Not a bad deal. Here it was after the wash and before the detail. Only area they slacked (and I had to do after the photoshoot) was the inside of the rims (not outside but deep inside)

Nothing looks better than a clean black car.... for 20 minutes. Then it's tine to start all over again!

I used to keep a Cali car duster in my trunk for that very reason.

We have had so much rain here since I bought mine we can not keep it clean for long but in all honesty about as much fun to clean it up
