Finally posting the HL

Beautiful weather this weekend so I had a chance to do a few things.

Washed and clayed the HL. Busted out the porter cable 7424 and some mezerna polishes and gave it a a full polishing before topping it with some p21S wax. The paint was shining!!! Sprayed the wheel wells with some Adams undercarriage spray, tires with 303 aerospace protectant. Dusted and cleaned up the interior with some 303 on the dash. Looking good now.

Now for the pics. Since buying it i have added the black oem running boards, front window tint, oem mud flaps, oem carpeted mats and rear all weather mat. I also recently installed the alpine pkg-res2 unit for the kiddies. enjoy the pics.

Geez....my jaw dropped when I saw the pics with your neighborhood....houses are almost identical to the styles, materials and colors to the houses in my old neighborhood, down to the railings and wood trim, shutters etc. In fact, I would have swore that the one in the first picture was my previous next door neighbor's house, if it wasn't for the garage doors not having windows/glass panes. Bizarre....

Nice HL BTW!!

I picked up a PC 7424XP last year, and love it. Although, I am a Zaino user...have been using it for almost 11 years now with amazing success. I don't like the Zaino polish. I'm using Optimum polish, and if necessary Optimum compound, with the CSS pads. The buffer comes in really handy on the black. I apply the Zaino and buff by hand though.

Cheers.
