Sweating the details
Got to detail the beast this weekend, which inluded a chemical guys suds wash, Mazerno Cut and Polish, and sealed it with Jet Seal. After that I polished the trunk reservoir and refinished my drag rims in Brilliant Silver. Overspray on the tires will be removed before they are mounted

Onto the pics:

Per Luis, I needed to get h&r 20mm wheel adapters, so I picked some up from RPMNORTH.

Seriously?

I'm not one to have my car THAT low...but some people really make me wonder what they are doing in an enthusiast forum to begin with.

Car looks fantastic.
