Default Turtle Wax Black Box (Pics)

First off sorry for the crappy iphone pics. The digital camera i was using either showed too much sun and made the pic look like crap or was blurry.

Over the weekend i decided to try the TW Black Box. Its a 3-step process. 1st was a pre wax. 2nd step was the Black carnuba wax. Last step was the detail spray (i actually think your suppose to use the detail spray to get all the wax off after applying but i didnt use it anyways). I used a Dewalt Porter Cable for applications and washed out the pad in between steps. After using a PC i dont beleive ill ever wax by hand again. Only took me about an hour and a half taking my time. Im very happy with the results and would reccomend it to anybody with a black car. Im a meguiars guy and i doubt ill ever use there wax on my car again. Now onto the pics.

Also if you guys have any reccomendations on what i should do to it next please post up. I know a new hood for sure. Im thinking the VFN 3" SS Hood. And the turn signals will be blacked out this weekend.

I dont know why the head lights look funny. They are clear and have the whistler mod.

Hood, grille, and I would do wheels. I would also take the chrome letters out of the berger. Looks tacky to me for some reason.
