#84095, "My new rims/new wax/ (56k :nono)"

My application to the CBCC...

Here goes:







my partner in crime:


Washed, then claybar, then wash, then pinnacle polishing, then Some really really excellent wax. Just waxed it again today--i've never been happier with a wax on a black car, but it still isn't worth the money I think. Just too expensive.

edit: BTW--they're 18" HP racing Evos

Yeah I know, but I scrape the hell out of it here in nashville as it is...It would be nearly un-drivable if I lowered it. Hopefully VA roads will be better

all roads suck in general, but i guess it depends where in VA you go, im in northern va and there are so many roads with so many potholes and dips and speedbumps, so good luck to you!
