hey guys!

ok some of you have been bugging me to post pics of my new front bar and i finally got around to taking the pics. the rear bar and side skirts will be fitted on sunday so will have pics of those later. mesh will go on next week, along with cooler.

the car has been out of action for nearly 2 months now due to silly drivers in brissie. after getting the car back from panel beaters, i noticed that the car was filthy and had rough patches all over the paint work due. so decided to go all out and get some advice from dave from www.waxit.com.au. he recommended gear very similar to brendans225 detail so i'm expecting some great results. i've only just finished washing the car and clay bar the bonnet, and DAMN is it so smooth....

anyway back to it, i'll update with pics of my progress.

Where's your front grill and your interfooler??


edit: ahhh next week....

LOL@ Franky


God dang Fish, you got some stuff ...........and nearly the same stuff as me .....i mean down to the bucket, pressure washer and watering can LOL..............noticed u got the zaino ........oh and u got the p21s, i've heard nothing but praise for them ...............and you even have the spotlights .......i expect to see every swirl and scratch removed ........oh and not sure if dave told u this, but the pads can get quite dusty and clogged up when using the poorboys swirl removers, best to give them a rinse or something every panel or two.... .........and cranking that bosch up past 4 is really lol have fun

Cheers,
Brendan

Sounds like someone got bitten with a car wash bug! you guys must be pros.

I know im immune to that one, just looking at it gives me a headache - NFI what to do with it all.
Here's fishy fishy fishy come clean my car.

how much them spotlights cost fish? and where from?

are u gonna put new fog lights in?

got those spotlights at bunnings. had them for a few years now, so cant remember how much they cost. had the spotlights on before and crap swirls everywhere. will take a pic of them tomorrow. just finished claying and a bit late to use the pressure gun at the moment.

those buckets weren't meant to be in the shot. was just too lazy to move themi got a 3000L watertank in my backyard and its a pain in the ass to go fetch water. handy having the pressure gun though, only 3/4 of that white bucket to totally rinse the car clean.

ah, no wonder, i was wondering why u had a few buckets full of water, cos isn't QLD having a big water restriction atm where u aren't even allowed to use a bucket to wash the car?......no probs u have a big ass water tank ........and btw, your garage looks massive

yeah helps having a water tank up here. water so scarce up here ppl go out and steal water tanks.

nah garage is tiny. can barely fit 2 cars in there.

i hope your only joking about ppl stealing water tanks .......imagine trying to flog a water tank from someone's backyard .............be a slow get away, ...............your garage is bigger than our one car garage bullcrud

I want to know how much it all cost so I can do mine.

After:
