Removed summer wheels, as tread is getting very low
Fitted the Clubsport red ring caps to the Nogaros
Fitted winters
Quick wash (very quick...rain started lashing down  :smiley: )

Washed, detailed and winter protection.
Used 3 coats of Colinite double wax.

Few reflection shots and beading.

Not much done to be fair other than gave the car a full detail at the weekend ready for winter. Discovered under the dirt that some numpty had scratched the car from the nearside rear door all the way through to the leading edge of the front door  :angry:

Luckily, it was quite light and polished out completely with some Dodo Juice Lime prime on a light cutting pad (sorry no images), then a couple of coats of Gtechniq C2V3.

Anyway, onto the afters - sorry no images before and the light was really dull but I did the best I could in the conditions.

@jdm owner and Sootchucker..

Great work on your cars. Both look fantastic. :cool:

Jdm - looks pristine, love that micro beading.

Sootchucker - amazing shine on your Carbon Grey.

I managed to turn HBA on somehow. I have to say, it was very cool.
I need to find out how I got it to work again now :whistle:
