Default Winter Detail Pics

Yesterday was nice as hell out and in the 50's so i decided i would wash and detail my car since it was in winter mode and went through 3 snow storms and was covered in salt. I used adam's car wash, foam cannon and adam's clay bar to start off with. I bought my self a craftsman 6 1/2' orbital buffer/polisher that was on sale for $39.99 at sears along with some pads. I did the swissvax paint treatment and then I hit the car three times with the buffer using adam's swirl and haze remover, revive polish, and finished it off with the buttery wax and detail spray. I'm really impressed by how well the buffer worked on the car and suggest buying one if you don't have $$ to spend on a PC I also cleaned and rinsed the engine bay down using adam's all purpose cleaner.

Looks awesome - I can't wait until the weather allows me to detail my car and get it back the way it should look. It's a mess right now. Did you smoke your taillights a little bit? They look slightly darker than normal - I like it.

You can get that lip spoiler on eBay for around $50 shipped and painted. I may get one - the look is growing on me. The bumper is an OEM S4 bumper. Suspension - I'll leave that to him to explain
