And here's the photo album to see all the pics.

The Alloys are difficult to see in the interior lighting. They basically look either satin silver or gun metal grey depending on the angle you look at them from. With the black optic pack and now these darker alloys I feel it finishes the car off so much better than the standard OEM chrome / silver finish.

Wheels look good, did wonder about having mine done like that but went for all silver in the end (car is Avus) but those look brilliant, especially on black car.

Cheers mate - they look superb "in the flesh" and have turned a few heads already.

It was Kelly at KDS that convinced me to go for the multiple layer paint job to get the finish. Walked me over to Lepsons we had a walk through their shop and showed me some of the various options available. I am pretty chuffed that he convinced me to go with this option.

Car looks fantastic, how long does it last before it needs to be done again?

when a full correction detail has been carried out you are essentially left with a car which has virtually no swirl marks or scratches on it.

now if your wash routine is not up to scratch then you could effectively inflict swirl marks on your first wash! swirl marks are unavoidable however, you can greatly reduce the damage caused by perfecting your wash techniques/routines. thats why i always advise customers to practise and perfect there wash techniques prior to having a full correction detail.

between 4/6 months is the maximum life cycle of any sealant or wax - however even during this period you need to top up the protection every other week.
