Default Just used the Turtle Wax Black Box....badass

Picked up the Black Box this weekend. Took about four hours but was definitely worth it after seeing the results. Got rid of all blemishes and looks amazing in person, like a black mirror. Looks so good I had to snap a few pics and show it off, not the best light though. Now I need black lug nuts.

the car looks great, honestly one of the best looking lt1's ive ever seen. i've been considering switching the rims on my trans am to the camaro for a black on black look, and you've definitely convinced me it would look good...only things is that i dont think the chrome would look good on the bird

I think it looks great but dont get black lug nuts, the car looks good as it is. Im not a fan of ALL black but your car looks DAMN good and you did a great job on keeping it clean.

Much appreciated crimson bird. You're lucky you have two! Can always switch for a while, I know the Camaro would look badass

the car looks incredible man!

i'd say you do need the black lugs too, and get some 18"x10.5" out back with a 315/35's and you'd be set! that would be sick.

Do you think the wax it comes with is good, because I read where someone else used the black box and then used a different wax at the end. Just wondering how you like it.

Just use the wax it comes with. It's great and lasts a couple of months. On a side note; the spray detailer that comes with it (the 2 bottles) can be used in between waxes and works awesome. I black box'd my ZR1's too.
