Default Detailed & CETA'd: 98 T/A

Just finished detailing the bird and OMG I've never seen it this clean before. I clayed every square inch of it and gave it a Meguiars #7 polish and two #26 layers by hand. I also CETA'd the rear bumper yesterday. WHY did I not do it sooner! ENJOY!







These pic caught the several shades this paint has quite nice




And the CETA





I'm also making an insurance claim for it this week for the shopping cart incident I had and getting my WS6 hood painted along with it.

Now with the CETA, I desperately need a nice set of stainless tips. After I wear out these tires some more I'll be getting some Pro Stars for it too

That car is screaming for some wheels, something nice to spice things up. Sweet ride nonetheless.

A set of 17x9.5/11 TT2s would look killer on that car!

I agree! Can't afford them right now though

For the Ceta I prepped with 3m wax and grease remover, slightly scuffed with a scotch brite pad, medium wet coat of Bulldog adhesion promoter and Duplicolor Semi Gloss Engine Enamel.
