Warning: shine may hurt your eyes!

I just did the ole wash, clay bar, wax today. I am more than pleased, I have never seen my car look this good (shine wise...nothing beats the first time you see it knowing you are going to own it). The camera doesn't even do it justice I had to use my old Olympus 4MP.

It was the Meguiars Box kit that had two clar bars, the quick detailer, and a small liquid wax. I used the whole thing because I figured I'd use finish off that wax before going back to the NXT

But thank you guys for the nice words

These cars have some beautifully-shaped bodywork that really shows off a nice shine. Just did my black mica today and it looks spectacular.

The 8 looks so good in a lot of colors. I think the blue is great because it is bright while still maintaining the contrast.

But thanks everyone for the nice words.
