Default Some new pics

Here's some pics of my S after I waxed it. Took me awhile cause I still don't have a porter cable so everything was done w/ my good ol hands. I used Meguiars Deep Crystal System (the 3 step). Also got some blue muteki lugs for now cause I can't afford the works lugs lol

Nice work dude. I like the rims & lugs (no one can tell what brand they are when you're rolling).

Yea. Do the works/ray lugs chip? Cause when I first put my lugs on I was trying to be as gentle as possible and it still chipped a little. You can notice it unless you look right at it.

Put electrical tape inside your wrench (or on the lug itself) and it wont chip.

Looks great. How did you get the swirl marks out? I had to order a PC, hopefully it'll get here soon.

Apply a little bit of pressure and do it a two to three times. And before I go on to step three I do an overview to make sure I didn't miss any spots or if you have someone else there have them look. Then I go on to step three. I started at 8:30am and finished around 2:45pm. I'm sure the porter will cut that time in half tho.
