Be gentle, I know that she is all stock, but that will change.

I just washed and clay barred her. She goes into the shop tomorrow to fix the TSBs for lag, sunroof, and speaker.

I have lots of plans, but so far, the only upgrade was to the Nokya hyper yellow H10 fogs. They are great by the way. Picked them up on ebay for a steal.

Let me know what you think.

Well the clay isnt going to get rid of the swirl marks. But I would think that if you hand wash it really well, clay bar it to get rid of the grime, then buff it with a high speed buffing wheel, it should get it looking better. That is what I would do anyways.

Maybe someone else has something more to offer?

Have you ever felt how silky smooth it is after clay bar? A few days after we got June's ride, I had just clayed my ride. Then we compared rides, June's was very rough and mine was very smooth. After claying her ride, it was silky smooth like mine. :D Have you heard bad things about doing clay bar so soon? I always figured the new car you buy has probably been sitting somewhere for a while, enough time for the paint to cure.

Hahahah What a punk. My car is almost 2 years old. And it needed it. Even though it has been garage kept the whole time.

You would never know that she is almost 2 though. Next time, think before speaking. :)

Thanks. Yeah, I like the yellow fogs a lot better. Just didnt look right with the white. Still looking for a good deal on wheels and tires. I have the RSB and the front strut tower brace on order.

I like your ride too. Nice mods. Definitely like the green neon interior. Want to do that to mine as well, since all the lights on the dash are green already.

Well, I have on order the FTSB, the RSB, I would like to get the TRD springs. Then it is a matter of wheels, tires, a big break and rotor kit, supercharger (if they ever make it) or the intake talked about on the gen2 aftermarket threads.

Interior, going to put in some green accent courtesy lights (neon), and maybe a dvd player with lcd screen. (that is if the wife lets me) lol

Exterior I would like to do a carbon fiber hood, no graphics though, maybe the clear corners, and tint the windows.

Lots to do, but now that I sold my GP, the wife said that I can do whatever I want to it, as long as it is tasteful. Hence the no graphics. I dont even care about the warrenty anymore. I just want to wrench on it. :)
