Hi all
Gave my car a proper buftying last friday, Used snowfoam, poorboys shampoo, meguiars quick clay, poorboys polish, then a couple of coats of AG Extra gloss protection. Came up alright I think!




Then today took it over my mates garage and stuck a set of Eibach springs on it, only 20/25mm springs, but has made such a difference to how it looks! Yet to give it a hammering to see how it handles as the radiator cap seal had broken so was loosing coolant, just dropped by at Ford on the way home so its all fixed now though!

Very easy to clay the car, took me about an hour I guess. Best method I found is to use some cheap car shampoo (I've got a gallon drum of turtle wax), make it really really strong in a bucket (about half an inch of shampoo in bottom of bucket), then use a bottle or something, fill from bucket, then keep paintwork really wet and soapy as you use the clay on it.
Black headlights are on the list, but can't get these ones apart to paint so would need to buy replacements, and they aren't cheap!!!
