She's Alllll Cleaned Up!

03sxt · Post by **03sxt** » Mon Sep 18, 2006 7:28 am

I got out yesterday and spent about 6 hours just washing, clay-barring, and waxing the car... This is the first time I've clay barred the car, and I have to say that I'm not super impressed with how it turned out... Granted, it's better than it was, but the 2 hours it took to clay bar it, I was hoping for a bit more of an improvement. Eh well, she still looks great!

Please give me input on which pics I should use for the calendar submissions...

Warning: A lot of pictures ahead. May take a while to load.

I think they changed ownership...it took me a couple weeks to get mine, but Ive had them for a while now.

Great pictures, wish I could get my new camera to take pictures like that. I dont think I like my new one much. Car looks great!

Screw you guys!

Thank you everyone for the compliments on the pictures! I borrowed my parents 5.1MP camera and fell in love with it. The images at SHQ are 4.1mb each.

I love it, though... I'll be getting a new digital camera, like that one, very soon.

I'll be submitting 2 of the bridge photos for the calendar.

noice! I like those straight on bridge shots - would look good if closer up though - need more car in it, but man they look g00d!

car looks damn good man, I think pics #10 and #14 would make great calender submissions.

Dude, those are all very nicely done. Good job! I just clay barred my car for the first time today also, and was also not that impressed. But like you said, it is better. Calander submission pics, here I come too!

Wow, amazing pictures and an amazing car. I love #22, but I wish your tail lights were on in that pict. All the pictures are worthy for the calendar, the end.

how are the window visors put on the car?

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Tue Sep 19, 2006 3:51 am

extremely gayly. window visors FTL

IMO 03sxts car would look hella better without them

Claybar will not do too much to a almost brand new car. Drive it for a yr or so, and then it will be a better result.

Beautiful shots Mike! The car looks great!

Thanks, man! I believe they are, in fact, from AVS. I love the functionality. They don't look as good as they did on some of my previous vehicles, but the functionality kicks ass.

Yeah, I still have a little bit of that band-aid on that rim, too. Even after attacking it with Goo Gone... Bastards. Hahaha!

3M double-sided tape.

And thank you everyone for the comments and compliments!

The car's nowhere near a show car, but it's come a long way and I love the way it's turned out!
