Here goes my first attempt at giving a 'real' clean to the vtr. I know about as much as a gibbon when it comes to cleaning cars so go easy with the lingo lol
Searching about on here helps alot btw
process:
- washed 2 bucket method
- AG Super resin polish
- AG Extra gloss protection sealant
- Meguirs wax
- megs back to black for trim
- AG tyre shine
- AG chrome polish for exhaust
results:
reflection!
what do you think?

I agree with the mk2 lights, will suit the car and the clean look, even tho i prefer the darker ones normally.
Love the car tho

Alsooo...
Aero wipers fitted
a very common sticker fitted
and i dont believe iv ever shown my boot. Tis a 12' jbl sub with 600 watt pyramid amplifier. As i have many theiving arabs in my area, the Sub has been drilled down onto a thick bit of carpetted mdf which covers the whole floor of the boot, which has also been chained to a seatbelt mount lol. The amps padlocked to a seatbelt mount also.
(i also have jbl 300watt 6x9's on a stealth shelf which i fitted before i bought a sub to improve standard rears, havent felt a need to replace them yet as there not that bad tbh)
