Thumbs up Just Got My Car Back From Getting Polished
So last fall for my birthday my girlfriend (well ex girlfriend now) got me a complete polish job for my car as a gift. I waited till now to do it because there was no point to do it before winter I figured. And my sister does photography as a hobby so she did a photoshoot with my car. Here's a few pics. Let me know what you think

Ah it's not 100% perfect. I bought the car a year ago and the paint was in pretty tough shape. It's much better than it was haha

I want to sooooo bad!!! But our roads are absolute **** here. I had an 03 Z24 before this car and it was lowered. It was the worst time ever lol. But without a doubt it needs to be lowered. And with the ss emblem it's just the reflection

Lol! Ya it's damn time consuming! I had to leave my car there all day. But when you are completely exhausted and never wanna see wax ever again, you will look back at your car and smile. It will be worth it!
