Default Bored Today, Cleaned my car. Pics!

well i work at a detail shop, so pretty much everytime i wash it, i wax it. and when im at work it's pretty damn convenient with the power washer, air drier and all the stuff i need right there....but we've been kinda slow lately and i had the day off, so i decided to wash my car and wax it in my driveway...and damn. it takes me about twice as long with out the air drier and having to get everything out at home...but it was alright because i've done nothing all day...i took a few pics, hope you like!

i used Wizards Car wash concentrate soap. dried it with "the absorber" hit the tires up with some old armorall i had lying around, cleaned the rims with a microfiber and some "wax enhancer" (the best damn spray wax i've ever found made by Hi-Tech...i get it from my suppliers at work) and then waxed it with a microfiber applicator pad and used Ardex Topaz Wax (another wax i get from my supplier. $7 for a tin and the best wax i've found yet!) and i use nothing buy microfibers on my car....here's my results of the day!

Very nice, I love it with those wheels.

If you don't like the tips I could always take them off your hands

The springs are the stock ones that SLP offered that were made by Eibach...i think they're advertised as an inch drop or maybe less...but they sagged to about an inch. the rear was sagging way worse before, but for some reason when the 9" went in, it lifted the rear up some....



oh and chad....i like my tips just fine broken or not i'll keep 'em around!

Thanks

I cant remember what his name, it is something like ss ls1 or ls1 ss who did that.He is the guy with the black 98 SS with the I forged and 35th anni stripes.


And the springs are not Eibach, SLP put a different bilstein suspension in them not Eibach.
