Hi, in the past i've always had brighter cars, like orange or light blue, or something with a bit of contast.
Now i've got this Gunmetal 350, with the 19inch wheels. i'm really struggleing to find a good colour to change the wheels to. Anyone got any pics of GM cars with different alloys / colours ?
cheers
-
he got owned there.
-
i got it, but u cant transfer it,
-
certainly is very nice, a really nice looking 350 as well, from the day after i brought my gunmetal one i wish i got a white one.
-
yeah, i brought all the dyno apps for the iphone, they are very good. As long as it doesnt move around atall, ( needs to be in a phone windscreen holder) then it will give pretty accurate 0-60 times and quater mile times, with g force readings.

this is my momo wheel, still official nissan tho.
-
cheers guys , a day later and 100 miles its a little dirty, but i'm sure with the amount of wax on it it'll just wash off.
-
yeah, i think it was washed a couple of times, ( sometimes we forgot to take pics )
-
nice cars, that dc2 looks tidy in the bottom pic

i got the jobs done at mates rates, so what it cost me wouldnt matter too much, all i can say is after 12hours of work, its awesome. There were major cracks on my leather, after about 10 mins of work, differnt creams and brushes, mostly gone ! the dashboard has been treated as well, looks like factory, i wouldnt mind a new dashboard tho, out of a 07 or 08 model as they are really nice.
his normal rates are 120 to 150 i think, that would be a full day, but the car is generally brought to him.

Hi Guys, my friend Jim came round on Sat to valet my car and my mates 172, here is his report thing. This got posted on Detailing World as well, everyone thought my exausts were a bit poo, saying they didnt look right, theres one shot of them, and its the 5zigen pro racer, what do you think.
Today’s task was to tidy up the 350Z, and turnaround the Clio 172. I knew I had my work cut out, and probably being a bit optimistic but hell, who doesn’t like a challenge.
Arriving an hour early I got on the case straight away.. The forecast said rain, yet through till lunch it was just windy and cold!! (very overcast however..)

Pictures & Process.
Starting with the wheels..

- Tyres scrubbed with stiff brush and Megs APC
- Megs WB worked with SV Wheel Brush
- EZ Detail to get in on the inner rims
- Cotton Wool buds to reach smaller/tight areas

Engine bay..
- Underside sprayed with 3:1 mix of G101, worked with MF cloth

No after photos I’m afraid.
Wash stage..

- Once foamed, work detail areas. (IE, Petrol filler housing, window jams, panel edges, badges etc)
- Rinse
- TBM with Ultimit and Maxi Suds
Bit close on this one me thinks!
Brew.
Clayed with Sonus Green and LastTouch as lube:
Rinsing as I go..
Rewashed > Rinsed > Dried
At this point the Cotton Wool buds came out again to tidy up some difficult areas.. Now I did say it was windy, I had to make several runs out to the road to prevent products/crates and clothes blowing away, but I wasn’t expecting this!!
GAH!
Car polished with MF applicator pad & AIO Prime. Acrylic Trigger followed shortly after with several sprites of GLOS.
Tyres dressed. Wheels protected. Leather fed. Exhausts polished. Interior hoover/wipe clean.
350Z finished @ 1:20pm.
