Default Washed/Polished/Waxed-1997 MR GSR

Well Here it is, I changed around a few things, (like mirrors, seats, door panels, etc...) I know I'm gonna hear it about the mirrors, but the old ones were turning Milano PINK

Car looks good.

Milano red=non clearcoated as I'm sure you know. Just polish those mirrors and it should take off the oxidation.

I do all the time, I wax and polish/glaze my car and some parts like the rear molding, tops of door handles and mirrors have a little pink to them.

Maybe you need to bump up to a more agressive product on these parts to get rid of the oxidation?

I don't mind the mirrors. I kinda want to get something similar.

Car looks ok. You need a better camera unless you have some serious nervous twitch going on, then you just need a tripod.

I hadda take the headlights apart to clean the bezels and the chrome began to flake off. So I decided to paint them flat black so it would help with the glare from the HID's.
