Some pics of 97 #421

After taking possession of the R for a week, i managed to do most of the reg maintenance on the car including a Meguairs 3 step on the car. Here is a few pics of the car that i snapped today.

awesome pics.... car looks great!

Try Meguiars new Tech Wax sometime. I just went over my whole with it and couldn't believe the results. Its a synthetic polymer which means you are basically putting a very thin coat of liquid plastic on your paint. Anyhow...it came out great. I have done the Meguiars 3 step and it does wonders too

Re: Some pics of 97 #421 (Petah)

pretty nice

it's just like perfect

gotta have mine taken soon

I used the Meguiars Gold Class Liquid Wax. It turns out so good for me. I have never had a wax turns out that good

I was going to get the 3 steps in the beginning but the step 2 were out of stock.
So I ended up with purchasing the Gold Class Shampoo and wax

The car has 98 up rear bumper and taillight conversion. Front is JDM so you cannot really tell that the car is 97.

I see.

Nice caR none-the-less, but IMHO Id have liked to see it with its original bumper/tailights due to the rarity of the 97 R.

A 97 R in stock form just looks RaW!
