I thought I would start a journal as no doubt I will be doing a few bits and pieces to the car over the following months.
A few pictures as the car stands at the moment, totally standard and untouched from new. It even had the plastic wrapping on the sill protectors and the original date stamped conti m3 tyres.
So far since owning the car I have detailed it inside and out and did the following:
Paintwork/exterior
Snow foamed exterior
Iron x applied to paintwork and alloys
Snow foamed again
Washed with two bucket method with dodo juice sour power
Rinsed and towel dried
Clayed all over with bilt hamber regular clay
Polished with menzerna 203s
Sealed with dodo juice supernatural hybrid
Tyres dressed with Meg's endurance gel
Interior
Leather cleaned with Dr leather cleaner
Leather protected with ltt ultra
Plastics dressed with Poorboy's natural look trim dressing
Engine bay
Engine cleaned with bilt hamber surfex hd
Plastics dressed with Aerospace 303
Fitted some new side repeaters and oem cup holders.
The car is then going to have 3m venture shield paint protection film applied to the front end and other vulnerable areas prone to stone chipping as the paintwork is original and wanted to try to protect it as best as possible.
Then perhaps a repaint of the calipers in satin black and and new oem disks and pads all round at a later date (these ones have hardly any lip just slightly corroded)
