Can I drop off my car? What products are you using? I have Zaino but it's been a while since I've found the time to detail my car. Might wait till Spring.

Deal!

You need to take some before, during and after pictures of your detailing job.

Tony,

Didn't take many pics at all. I started 3 hours later than I had planned and was racing against the sunlight. Had something come up last night so i didn't make it back home until after midnight so I was tired this am.

Nightime hit and I didn't even get around to cleaning the interior and BARELY finished the exterior.

I'll upload the 2 or 3 pics that i have later. LOL

i did clay. washed twice, clay, and did the whole 3 step thing which took way longer than i originally thought. i had to rush though since it was getting cold and dark and i've been at it from 10am-630pm straight.

Didn't get to spend as much time as I would have liked on the tougher areas, but eh i'm 80% happy.

During

Nice job, you're one of the very few to tape off the edges when detailing.... See you don't need AJs, you get to enjoy the results more when you do it yourself, tiring hells yeah but jet black pays off well. :

Now let's see some Umnitza and all those other 5,000 bulbs that you bought all installed on your car!

LOL when i muster up enough cajones to crack open something to do it. the interior ones no problem, it's the umnitza, fogs and stuff that i don't want to deal with. i pop the hood, look at the headlight and im like 'mmmm yeah no thanks'. shut the hood and call it a day haha

That is exactly what we NorCal guys did too... So take your Umnitza to Darwin at SonicMS for a quick and painless installation

Suck it up

The foggies are super easy, I installed mine in about 20-25min. You just gotta turn your wheel towards you when you're working on each side to get clearance. Just loosen up a few screws and then twist out the bulb, slap in the new one, throw back on the screws and voila!

Or you can just leave your hood closed and dance yo ass on over to Darwins........... But just get it done before the next meet, otherwise you'll never hear the end of it. We let you off the hook the first time haha......
