Default 16 hrs detailing the Green Hunter, and a photoshoot :)
I hate to do polish/wax/detailing. I much rather remove the engine than polishing the car.. But anyway, after the repaint 7 years ago I have never done a proper polish/wax job so it was long overdue.
I got the Meguiars deep crystal system and a cheap twin head machine.





Step 2 of 3 done...




Foto session with some different lenses etc. Unforunately the sun decided to hide behind dark clouds most of the time. So the photos didn't quite turn out as good as I hoped for. Hope you enjoy

That first head on shot is without a doubt the sexiest 951 head on shot I've seen. I ddnt know your car was a sunroof delete. Talk about a rare car. And you seem to be doing the right thing with it!

^ x2!! But I'll add a "damn fine" as well. Those look like the Brembo Gran Turismo brake kit. Very trick.

Must get my car detailed...

I LOVE YOUR CAR!!! It's been constantly raining for like 2 weeks here. Just drizzle, pour, drizzle... My paint looks bad. I'm seriously needing to do this to my car!

Wow. Ok. That looks downright amazing! Fantastic work! that's one of the better detail jobs I've ever seen! (I'm a former pro detailer too...) Your car's color is flat amazing.

stunning pictures, the car looks really great. I love how the wheels look with that body color, and the exhaust looks really nice in that last picture
