Default Washed her today - pics

Well I washed her today for a show coming up. I just had her painted so its ashame I cant throw some wax on there yet, but man she is shining.

Dont you just love the certain time of the day when your car sparkles !

It was shining so nice tonight. I am usually a fan of pics from the rear end !

I do love the look of a clean, shiny C4!! Nice paint job BTW.

I wish I could put the vette plate cover on the front of mine, but Texas requires an actual license plate. Kinda throws the look off a bit.

Default Good luck

Car looks great. If the show is a participant vote, hope you have many friends there. If not enjoy the other vettes, because how good yours looks it means nothing for this type of voting. Learned the hard way this year. Good luck
