Sorry guys, just read your posts properly:

The rear spoiler was also from CNAutofans $211USD delivered to Brisbane. It comes with adhesive strip and was really easy to install. Just make sure you clean the spoiler and your car well before attaching the adhesive to remove any grease and dirt. I used a rubbing alcohol and then sprayed Windex on the side of the adhesive that was going to sit on the car. This allowed the spoiler to be moved into final position without it sticking to the car. Finally I held the spoiler in place with painters tape while the Windex dried. The tape was pulled off the next day.

Thanks for the kind words Harlequin. Booked my car in with Rencal to get the CF splitter attached. Unfortunately they are flat out until 17th August.

Ok just got the car back from being fitted with the CF splitter. Gotta say that I really love the way the sun shows up the CF.

Not sure why I have multiple copies of the pics :

I like the angle of this photo, just a shame that the sun isn't showing up the CF weave.

Thanks Angus, really happy with it. Just want to add some CF side blades and the M Performance diffuser to finish it off.

That will finish it off nicely.

Nice sunny day in Brisvegas, so I got up early and washed the car before it got too hot. Car washed with Snow Foam (high pressure), chamoised and then Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax. Last time I cleaned the wheels with Bowden's Wheely Clean and then applied Armour All Wheel Protector as per Harlequin's recommendation. Interestingly I found that the brake dust build up was a little more obvious than normal, but it came off so easily with the Wheely Clean and the gernie. This time I have used the Quik Wax on the rims to see if it makes any difference. Have managed to dodge a few hail storms in the past week

Nice work! Car looks gorgeous. Being as OCD and anal as I am I use a blower to dry to my car. I find this a great way to reduce scratches and to shock my neighbors!

I've been considering this. What do you use?

Did you wait til the wheels were perfectly dry before applying the Armorall?

I just use my old 5hp shopvac which I can arrange to blow air. This works fine as it does not blow out too much air. I know others use leaf blowers as well but I like how with one device I can dry and vacuum my car. Some of newer shop vacs have a detachable blower which is more convenient than dragging around the entire thing.

Here is what I will get after mine dies:

That's hilarious, I can just visualise it now. How long does it take to "Blow dry" your car? Do you use any styling products after its dry - instant detail or spray wax?

There may have been a few spots of water, but I left them until last and applied the Armourall about 2 hours after washing. Maybe you need to hand dry ,no wait (blow dry) first?

Santa brought me new grills. I tried for about 15 minutes to release the clips on the old ones by putting my hands through the grills to no avail. I relented and loosened the top of the front bumper and was able to undo them from behind.

[Felosenco]

The old and the new together.

The car is really looking good.

Why thank you. I would like to lower it, but I'm already scraping the underside of the front spoiler on the terrible driveways here in Oz ?
