Default Some More Pics of Cossie after detailing

As people are aware, I have been trying to sell the cossie and make way for my new project.

When i looked at others vehicles, i was blown away by the quality of paintwork and the general conditions of the cars.

I deceided to buy a ultimate detailing machine from Utopia and have a go at cutting back all the swirls and haze on my car. Cant say its perfect but i am impressed for my first attempt.
Let me know what you think

Regards

Gareth

Looks really good. But I`m not a fan of the red Ford oval,and the badges on the back of the car. Apart from that

All i would do it put the standard cloth back in or leather if you can find some and dont mind paying the money, but i would opt for cloth, so comfy and you dont slide about.

and lose the carbon look dash stuff...

looks well tidy after your cleaning though. Impressed.

The wheels look, probably not to every ones taste and the Escort purests, but its your car at the end of the day.

1 thing i will say, it may put a few people of buying the car or looking at car, stupid i know, but im probably right.

id def go for a normal badge on the front too.
