What I need is for you all to point me towards a South Florida wash and wacko that I can pay to do it for me, lol. Everytime I touch it I end up either adding a swirl mark or leaving water spots lol.
J,

Go hang out in the W&W forum... Those guys will set you straight on care.

Also, check out MikeyC's detailing handbook. I think that's online somewhere.

Thanks for the compliments guys! The car looks aweseome in the light. I'm going to try to get it professionally detailed soon and get some high res pics up.

Prowler Orange, ssshhh let me think I'm the only one. By the way, I was planning on using your guy but things just didn't work out that way. I ended up making good friends with a guy who does custom jobs and started doing work on some s2k's locally with him, so I used him for the work. Thanks for your help though! Your car is beautiful as well!

Thanks for all the compliments. I was looking at the engine bay today with another local S2k owner, I'm really amazed at how much he was able to paint. We pulled most of interior trim pieces for an alarm install . . . there really is no silver left on the car. Anyone except a body shop guy (or someone who knows the factor s2000 color options lol) probably couldn't tell its had a color change.

That's awesome man! I can't wait to see some better pics!
My old integra actually had a similar color black with a blue tint, but it didn't have as much blue as the m3 color.

Jsmply, I didn't read the outcome of your lawsuit until today. I couldn't find it before, then I remembered part of your name and did a search, found it and read the ending. So you must have used the settlement to get your car painted. It looks good.
You have your license plate blacked on your avatar, but there it is huge in your pictures. Think you might want to block it?

That is amazing. If you see my car up close it really has a nice shine and glass like effect, but you have a full blown clean mirror, lol.

I might take you up on that sometime when I go to the dragon next trip =) Are you going to wake the dragon? LoL
Yes, I have to this year. March will be two years of ownership and I've NEVER been to the dragon - I know, blasphemy.

If yours isn't detailed by then, I'd be more than happy to do it for you!
