[QUOTE="Lanter, post: 1367950, member: 20552"] I have a couple pictures but with the car being black it is hard to see everything clearly. Is there any certain pictures you'd like to see? [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/cowlwlfux/IMG_00441.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/v9pfheqo9/IMG_00431.jpg[/IMG] Bottom of the hood, it just has a hole large enough for the pin to go through the hood and be latched. [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/ghjff0ux5/image.jpg [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/lwh4j0byh/IMG_0327.jpg[/IMG] Over the weekend I tried my hand at a paint correction on the car. Followed a 5 step process that yielded great results in my opinion. 1. Washed the entire car 2. Clay bar 3. Cut with meguiars 105 using a harbor freight polisher 4. Polish with meguiars 205 using the same polisher 5. Carnauba wax to seal everything up Rear bumper before: [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/4ns7uuufd/IMG_0314.jpg[/IMG] After: [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/tfru23bm1/IMG_0315.jpg[/IMG] Also polished and sealed my LeMan's [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/5amj6n1xl/IMG_0321.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/snkkp5i15/IMG_0322.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/jpcvv36o9/IMG_0330.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/yzcr2a26h/IMG_0329.jpg[/IMG] A couple of weeks ago I took the car for it's maiden voyage. I was lucky to get it in before winter sets in. Next spring I should finish the trans, clutch, rear end, and get the car tuned. Hopefully I can still get it finished and all the quirks worked out before MW2016. [video=youtube;mhlw9xBTdcU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhlw9xBTdcU[/video] Last real update is on my 2009 BMW 335i that got some new wheels!
