Thx all. NEPOC is New England Protege Owners Club that started years ago when all of us owned a version of the Mazda Protege. I had a Protege 5 before my 8. So the name of the club just stuck with us.

 

thanks guys for the compliments. Took us seemingly forever but like Josh said, about 5 hours. Good times.

 

Some really nice pictures.

I happened to like one very much in particular but I had to PS out the lamp post and overhead wires... Here's the editted picture - I think it's a bit cleaner and more focused on the car.

BEFORE


AFTER

 

Heh, I would have done the same to many photos but just did not feel like editing them all to that degree. thx though, looks great.

One more at the end of the night.

 

Great work - that was pretty brave... it certainly paid off!

 

...and i thought this thread was going to be one of those regular wax picture threads, great shots!

 

Nice edit there 416. :x Definitely helps the picture out big time. Thanks again guys. Some point I'll stray away from the completely stock look. At least the wide tires and springs help.. :x

 

Nice pictures. Appearance Package FTW!!

 

you know its hot when you cant even wash the car in direct sunlight... tried at 3pm on a july afternoon in FL.
about 95 and 2000% humidity. as soon as the water hit the car, it was gone. i was literally spraying water spots onto the car.
re-washing at 9pm probably looked pretty weird. but then i saw some guy washing his camaro too.

 

Good thing was that we had some overcast cloud cover from time to time.

Some adjusted Lomo effect photos.

 

Regular pics?.......not from me. hehe

 

Not from me either...

Excellent pics!!

 

Oh you naughty girl you.

 

Both looks great..
the 5 hour polish worth the effort.. It shines like mirror..

 

Yeah but with all the rain for the past couple days... can't really tell ..well..anything. lol

 

wow the paint on the black looks deep!

 

Photoshop skillz. hehe

 

Bring on the heat! I can't wait to start detailing again.

 

Same here altspace; I'm really tired of this bitter cold winter already!
