Thought I show the ample cargo space in the front.


After washing, proceeded to clay entire car including windows, wheels, etc..





Car is clean and prepped for 50/50 shot of the hood. Taped over the edge of the clear bra to prevent fraying the edges while polishing.


50/50 of the hood


Notice the deeper red on the right vs the the unpolished left.


50/50 Rear Lid



50/50 Rear Quarter Panel


Exhaust Before


Exhaust After




Engine cleaned and dressed




Applied DoDo Juice Supernatural and pulled car out in the sun to wipedown to make sure I don't miss any spots




After














Love that carnauba glow




Remember the wheels before?
