Default EM1: 3-step detailed

so i called in sick from work this morning and decided it was time to detail the Si.

NOTE: i didn't spend a lot of time with these pics. they are aiiite. I just quickly took them using flash while working in the garage.

anyways...

i went to the local kragen and bought all this crap:


the car was already washed and just needed a wax. this is during step 3, i didn't remove the wax yet:


after a few hours, i finally finished:






pic of my new CTR gauge bezel


I also detailed my motor. sorry, no pics of that. my bad...

full photoshoot will come when i feel like doing it haha

well that was my day. peace.

I just did 8 hours of detailing on my hooptie this past Friday. Clayed and waxed it.....OMG soooooooooo smooth. And the water beads are beautiful!

Looks good. I demand pics of the engine since I see that boost guage peaking.
