love the color!

The OCD gods where smiling on me when I had picked her up at the dealer and there wasn't enough time to have it washed there. So I avoided the "dealer installed" scratches and swirls. With that said, I did it myself and dried her off using Eagle One detailer then added Eagle One spray wax. Considering the paint is barely a month old, I figured it will provide some protection until I do a regular waxing. Finished off by dressing the tires. More pics, including interior, to follow...

I love the color! There is something very gratifying about washing and detailing your car. As for OCD, how about cleaning the lug bolt holes? All my neighbors think I'm nuts.

Just Beautiful!

I couldn't agree more. I do the outside every second weekend and the inside on the ones in between. I find washing/detailing therapeutic. I do the lug bolt holes as well. Fortunately my washing/detailing area is obscured from my neighbors.

Though I appreciate being able to wash and detail in front of and in my own garage, it never fails that while I'm doing it, my next door neighbor has to come outside and make smug and snarky comments about my "hobby".

I have one neighbor that always make a comment about me "washing my car again". The last time she said that I told her that I was and will continue to do every other week for the foreseeable future so there is no need to make the same comment over and over. She hasn't said anything since. I don't get why people feel they should make a comment about someone's personal business and hobbies. I don't make any comments about her pot smoking habit. Just leave me alone.
