Spent a whole day cleaning the exterior, long old process to get it where I wanted it but worth the effort!

Hope you like

Still not 100% on the wheel colour but looks better than I remembered. Paintwork has come up lovely. What products do you use? I spent 8 hours on mine over the weekend a cracked out my favourite polish, Blackfire. Lots of people at the wife's work commented on how deep the shine is this week.

Looks great, two years ago I was set to buy this before I was offered my sprint one, looked even better in the flesh. Milltek a bit quiet though.

Mmm. Shiny pretty things. She looks gorgeous (and for the record the wheels are the right colour and the ride height looks perfect while she's stood still).
