Default Bath Night.................................

I have been neglecting her a bit so gave her a scrub tonight. Took a couple of pics with my new Nikon Coolpix L820.

Looking respectable again....

To be honest I dont remember what I used last time I waxed it. It was either Rejex or NXT.

The tips I used Simichrome Polish with a hand drill and buffing wheel and then a coat of Rejex.

Beautiful! even when they are dirty!

Question- did your car come with those chrome rims or did you get them from House of Wheels?

I have been looking at them - how do you like them? I have Daytona Sunset Orange, was thinking about these in chrome or something in black...

keep up the good work!
