RX-8, no before pics :(

I detailed my dads RX-8 yesterday, unfortunatly I didn't snap any before pics, but here are the afters.




My Process
Washed
Clayed
Spot Swirled on heavily swirled areas (full hood, full drivers side door, random smaller areas around the car) using LC Orange (LC Yellow in tough spots)
Amigo using LC White
Epic using LC Black
Black Wow on the trim
Clarity on all windows (except windshield, owner dosn't like beading water on the windshield)

Not rather ! Think of all the fun you can have for the paltry $100, hours and hours of fun.
