I finally cleaned my car!

After washing and waxing my car I have finally taken pics! And yes, I know it needs a drop. I know it needs one. I haven't gotten around to that part yet.

I am also well aware that the exhaust isn't straight where it should be. I'll be fixing that very soon.

Looks good, I like the headlights and the tails are great besides that they look dull...I'm guessing because the tint is on the outside instead of the inside?

If you look close enough you can see some slight swirl marks, but the glaze I used seemed to take most out. I tried clay baring it but I just couldn't get the hang of it and it didn't seem to do anything but make my hood streaky. I used Mother's Phase 2 Glaze and Swirl remover then I used Zymol Carbon for the wax. I must say that Carbon stuff is expensive but a dream to work with.

With the tails I went to my local hobby shop and got Tamiya PS-31(I think) Smoke coloured Polycarbonate safe spray. I am planning on clearcoating them to match though. Altough, it looks a bit nicer in person.

And yes, the exhaust is sitting a bit weird. I haven't had a chance to see what they did at the shop but I think if I just heat up the hangers and bend them the right way it will atleast look straight.

I think it's due to the person that owned the system before. They had it bent to accomidate their body kit.

Thanks for all your comments/praise/criticisms!

Yeah. I really need to fix that. I'm not sure if I can get the tip to be more towards the front of the car. Wouldn't I have to bend the pipe so it made it look shorter?
