Not the best pics I know...
She's had a fair bit of TLC lately (new clutch, cambelt, interior, underneath all hammerited and waxoiled) so thought I'd give her a wash and a T-Cut, here are a couple of pics before I start so can have a "before and after"

The ports in the front bumper serve a purpose, and I don't think they look out of place but yes I hear you about the exhaust, I still like it but wouldn't have anything similar looking again.

First thing I thought were smoked fronts, would look mean with those on .
I reckon the rear bumper would look better if it was lower, it needs a rear apron or something.

T-Cut is lame, rapes your paintwork.
Ive got a show and shine clay bar kit from mothers. takes of all the deposits on your paintwork without being abrasive and leaving chalk deposits etc. leaves a nice shine too ready for a coat of wax. will leave ur panels like mirrors.
Give me a shout if you want to try a clay bar kit.

one of my mates runs a valetting business for prestige cars and uses mothers products which he imports from the states. You know how obsessed the yanks are with their waxing etc, its really good stuff. I`ll give him a ring if you like and find out prices/availbility?

wheels can be changes, holes arent a big deal, and he could get a new rear bumper and exhaust..hardly destroyed a car

IN all fairness Luke brought the GSI with them exhausts, wheels and holes.
The exhausts don't look too bad in the flesh

Clay bar = white-tac... Spray on some Meguairs Quick Detailer and rub it over with the clay bar, will take off any crap.
