    well, this car wasnt too bad. i did it about a month ago. the owner didnt want perfection and i didnt have nearly enough time for it anyway.

    the entire car got one pass of hi-temp 357 magnum on a white lc. never used the magnum before and am definitely using it again! then it got poli-seal on a green lc. (all on the pc) the door jams were poli-sealed as well. tires got optimum`s dressing. wheels got klasse. windows polished with one grand and cleaned with sprayway. i dont remember what i used on the trim! interior was apc`d. all the carpet was vac`d and extracted. painted trim pieces got poli-seal by hand. all other trim got 303. seats received the lexol treatment. i cleaned up the engine too, dressed it with tire foam after a power wash, but didnt grab any photos of it.



    all in all i was pretty pleased. i was surprised how beat up all the lights were, but they look a bit better now:chuckle:







    well i forgot to take befores so they are all of just one area...











    the rest of the car was comparable, but the hood was a little worse.



    now for the afters!!

    thanks for the kind words everyone! the car has about 70000 miles on it now. it was bought new by the current owner, but it was a floor model though, so it wasn`t in tiptop shape when she received the car. when she saw it after i finished, she didnt even go home, she went straight to the dealer where she bought it to show them what a "new car should look like"!! every one there was apologizing to her and they offered her a complimentary first checkup... she was really confused as the car was 3 years old with 70000 miles on it... they thought she just bought it! they even checked the odo because they didnt believe her! that just made me feel so good!
