Thanks! haha, it's static. I get asked if it's bagged all the time. I'm actually in NC right now. Originally from Long Beach, and moving back in about 2 months. Complicated. NC roads suck and I constantly scrape and rub. I had a front lip for like 1 week and tore it off. It's a struggle sometimes, but you've gotta pay to play.

Good looking ride!

You say that's because it just got washed... haha


thanks but I don't think my car looks 1000x better.. In fact I have a long way to go Simple, If I feel something was done properly I give credit. I don't judge based on whose car looks better, everyone has their own style. That's the beauty of modding, you do whatever you like. Every build is equally special to its owner and I like the way you accomplished yours that's all ...

Nearly all the cars in this thread are spotless. You either don't drive them and keep them in a Ziploc bag, or washed them right before snapping the pic. I drive mine daily, year round and it looks it. I have a thousand trees in the parking area where I work, and I live on a busy street, so my car is NEVER clean much more than an hour, after I wash it...

I was thinking the same thing but I believe part of it is also the magic of photography since I know that in my one pic the car is actually covered in dust, pollen and tree buds. They just don't show up well in the pic and unless you know where to look would think it was freshly washed. Look close at the flat horizontal part of the bumper under the plate and behind each wheel well and you will realize that it is not as clean as it first appears.



Or worst case how it spent most of 4 months:

Well in Florida I would expect the worst case scenario to be a sunscreen hand print on a window anyway!
