My baby's first shoot

after having it for over month and a half i have decided the previous owner did not take care of her as much as i would have, so i spent 3 hours on the detail last week, wash, claybar, seal and wax. everything was done by hand and it felt good. the end results were awesome with the paint being smooth and clean. here are some first pics taken by my good friend Josh Tan.

his flicker and some other pics from that night.

Really nice job and it seems you did it pretty fast. I wouldn't have been able to have the same result in 3h. Well done!
Do you have pics of the inside?
