Thought i would post up some pictures of my sisters EL fairmont Ghia i detailed today.
She didnt wash/polish/wax this car in a very long time and parked it under trees at her work. The result of this was a very dull and dirty EL. The car is a dream to drive with plenty of go, but it was treated rather poorly.. So i cracked it and decided to clean it for her. Washed, clay bar, polish, then wax. Buffer FTW! The start - Picture did it justice..... Bird shiet everywhere... Then after an hour or so's work (ran out of time), the result (Pictures don't do it justice)

It only took you an hour to wash, clay, polish and wax the entire car? Are you Superman??!!
Looks good btw, just needs the usual mods.

EL XR6 - Windows got done after the pics ya picy bugga daniel! haha.
BradensEBxr6 - Yeah i have almost convinced her to lower it and choose a decent set of 17's - 18's oneday, Just she doesnt want to lose the driveability of it.. Soft.. Also i was in a rush as she needed it. I wish i had a full day to do it the way it deserves but its a 1000 times better now hehe. Also i didnt bother covering the plates because it bog stock (unless seat covers and floor mats cause trouble?), but if she starts being a "hoon" or doing crazy mods i might hehe. As for the stang... well yeah... :
