Default Some random pics after claybar. Silver 97 TA

Just washed and claybar'd the car on a nice sunny day. I got lazy and didn't polish it, but It'll be done very well before G12! Only thing I adjusted in photoshop was the histogram slightly to get rid of some of the white haze.

I've got smoke lens turn signals and rear sidemarkers on the way too. Can't wait to get those on!

Looks like you missed a spot on the front bumper with the clay bar.

Sharp. It sucks how silver doesn't pop as much as darker colors when clay barred and waxed doesn't it?

Yeah, my front bumper has had some peeling paint for awhile, and it definitely needs a polish and a better camera. These pics were taken with a $99 camera. I'm gonna borrow my sister's Rebel XTI and take some real pics!

Yes, i began to remove the side moulding, but the paint doesn't match because my car has been painted before. When I take my car to get my rear quarter panel, front bumper repainted, I'll have them remove the side moulding and blend the paint. It will be done... eventually!

Thanks for all the comments! I'll get more pics up when I get my smoke lenses

Smoke lenses in. Still need rear smoked lenses, some HIDs and some HID fogs.. (one of my fog lights is burnt out, so I've kept them both off)
