host the picture onto a picture hosting site (i.e. photobucket, tiny url, image shack etc.) then take the url and strap on image tags on the front and back of the URL and you're done

7. Mothers Back to Black on the rubber seals and plastic
8. Clean windows w/ eagle f1 20/20
9. Clean interior
10. Shine tires
11. Polish exhaust tips

I just did this whole process today, took me 6 hrs. The 8 feels better than it did brand new. Some advice on drying the car after washing, use a leaf blower starting from the top of the car, down. Oh, and only 100% cotton on every towel that touches the car.

wow! so much for your paint
