Finally pics of my car

So i decided today to try out this Meguairs nxt generation wax so i double hand washed, claybared, washed again, dried, waxed, cleaned interior, and cleaned the windows also with something new to me which was stoners invisible class, I'm very impressed with both the wax and the window cleaner, the wax came off so easy and shined amazingly, and the window cleaner was self explainatory

heres the products i used, didnt get any interior pics yet though..




Personal favorite with Brent Franker inlays






I'll have more in the next couple weeks, i have some silver vette wagon wheels im throwing on it, some pacesetter headers, a gloss black berger panel with more chrome inlays from Brent, and HOPEFULLY clear corners all around

Give me compliments, critisize, whatever you want to do i want all the comments i can get

Nice! I'd get some new wheels, but other than that it looks great!

Just some tips, next time around, try using a polish in between the claybar and the wax. I use Meguiers Polish. Look up some threads from forum member ZaneO for some tips. You will notice results.

Lake of the woods is a good place to put your ride and take photos for sure! I have taken the same style of photos going over the bridge just like you did. I actually took out some of those reflectors in the center one time w/ the 383 on a dewy morning- but luckily I worked there at the time and fixed it myself.

Your car looks real clean. I would like to see it in person. Man we basically have the same car appearance wise-esp after you put in the berger panel. I almost got a set of those C5 vette rims which it sounds like you got (I was gonna powdercoat mine graphite thou)
If there is a nice day soon we ought get out to LOTW and take some photos of the twins and post em back up on here.
Keep up the good work buddy.

I'm not a fan of the billet grill, but if you're using it to hide some paint damage or protect the foglamps, I can't knock it too hard. In my opinion, it would make the car look 20 times better if you painted the grill black however.

Looks really good other than that! Great condition.

I'm not a fan of that particular glass cleaner, but I'm glad you've found success with it. Personally, I like the clear armor all spray glass cleaner. The foamy stuff is a pain in the butt to me.
