Not the greatest pics but we haven't had the greatest weather here so here's a few of how it is at the moment polish/wax free.













Just need some constant sun now so I can get it looking shiney and get some decent pics. Cheers for looking

Update

Few little bits and bobs added to me baby here:

New filter fitted:




Did some Sean-B style handy work on my clocks. Painted needles red, surround Smoke Grey and did a dummy fit to take pic:





Got a new Tyvek car cover to use as my car rarely gets used! Just to try and keep the paint as perfect as poss. This one's fully breathable, waterproof etc. so should help the car breath.



...and now I'm starting to build a little car care product army! Not as much as the proper detailing dudes I know but heres an obligatory pic:



Thats it for now......and a while. I'm skint.
