Well my friend Wes and I decided to do some griddy work and clean the cars....
The process: (I don't have a buffer so it could've been much better but I think we did good for what we had)

1. Washed car with Dawn Detergeant
2. Dried car to reduce water spots
3. Used Zaino show car wash & water as lubricant for zaino claybar
4. Hand buffed the car
5. Zaino Polish & Buffed
6. Nufinish wax & buffed
7. Black Magic Tire shine

Here we go....... What you guys think? Like I said, not able to do much, we're both 17 years old and supplies are limited. Mine is the SS and he has a Nissan 300zx.

I'll never understand how kids so young can afford these street machines. They should make the legal limit like 21 for anything over 285 hp. It's no offense to you or your friend, but too many young kids are getting these cars and seriously ******* alot of **** up.

Looks good though.

Understandable. You're right, there's alot of people my age that give some of us a bad reputation because they want to look cool and show-off.. But what seperates people like my friend and I, is the respect for the car, and actually having to work for what we have. Sadly, and unfortunately, we're given a bad rep. because of ignorant people... Btw, with 285hp for only people under 21, there'd be too many mustangs on the road

Well I've always loved the camaro's. But living in the south you know how rednecks make the cars have a bad name and look like trash... So, I do the best I can to keep my car up and keep the good american name that the car has and not let it follow the road that most people have given it. And as far as my friend, he's like me, he takes care of his car because it's what he loves.

Btw, Where in alabama is that located? Kinda ignorant that I live in alabama and don't know where it is, but I just can't think right now.

Exactly. I bought my SS 1 week after I turned 18. I had to work for every last dime to get it. I wasn't handed anything. I have a supreme respect for the car and what it can do just because I had to pay for it. If something happens to it, thats coming out of my pocket. All these kids who haven't ever had a decent hp rwd car before are getting ls1's handed to them. They create a stereotype of the teenage driver because they have no respect and self control. It isn't fair, but thats just how thing are. Owell. Sorry, had to rant a bit.

Very nice car though. Amazing shine.
