Detailed my winning blue 8

Here's some pics from my second attempt at detailing my rx8:

Washed and waxed in the shade.
I did a claybar on the hood but the stupid detailing spray bottle broke so I had to stop there.

let me know what you think

Try taking pictures later in the day when the sun is not so high and bright. It washes out your pictures and doesnt show the true color of the car.

+1 on taking pics when there isn't so much sun and for tire shine to complete the outside detail. Where are the interior pics?? I was a detailer, and a detail usually meant inside and out.
