Default Fresh detail pics

Got the car clayed and waxed today. Used Mother's clay kit and Meguir's Gold Class wax. Turned out pretty well. Let's see if I can get this thing to upload these! Nothing special just some quick shots after I got finished.



















The next plan is to get a front plate insert (though they are illegal in Nebraska...) and get the side stripes going up the side of the scoops. But I'm having trouble finding them...

Looks good, are you planning on getting different wheels? What about a CETA mod?

Thanks for the compliments! And yeah that was always nice growing up. Hardly ever had to stop games in the streets for cars!

Yeah I want to do the CETA mod and have it done in the dark charcoal metallic that everything else will be done in. And Further down the road I'm going to do new wheels. I just got these tires and will play around on these and forcus on the speed stuff for now with a few minor appearance things dabbled in. Lowering is on the list as well. I just need to ge ta new daily driver!

Yeah I thought about removing the side moldings but I dunno. Kinda follows the flow of the car. I haven't seen enough pics to make my choice there. Now the big question is, where do I find the blackbird stripes? I've been looking but coming up empty handed. And what is the average cost of having a shop paint the CETA mod? I need to budget here!
