Looks great; you done an amazing job on those alloys, they look brand new.

Have you painted the bumper tops and trim gloss black?

Tell me about it. I just finished washing mine, walked outside to put my battery back in the car and a bird flew over me and shits on the car.

Cleaned it all again

I might go down to halfrauds and get some cleaning products, since it's 3 for 2. Not sure what to get though.

I always clean my car, but I want it too look a nice deep red
