My car gets dirty just sitting in the garage, it's plain obnoxious. It's only after I've washed it that I don't wish my car was another color. Nice job on the detailing though, and enjoy it while it lasts!

Looks like a clone to mine. I'll be doing the same thing to mine this weekend, after having driven through rain the first time in 4-5 months this past week. Geeze did we ever need the rain, but it sucked at the same time. Looking great
