looks nice but as has been said... tyres and trim

out of interest.. how much did the simoiz spray cost and how did use and have left?  will be interested to see how long it lasts

you also need a new rear wiper... I happen to know someone who sells 'aero' style rear wipers  :wink:  pm me for detailz :afro:

simoniz was 4 bar for 1 tin and i ran out in one go, hense the missed bit on the rear bumper  :wink:

can you recommend some good wheel cleaner and tyre dresser please  :smiley:

think i'm going to get a 1 series wiper and vr6 deep chin spoiler soon, then coilovers for summer and maybe a wheel refurb in a slightly darker colour.

i'm thinking about using ag srp would it be benficial to apply it before dodo lime prime, then wax? or would the srp replace the dodo in the process?

cheers dan, maybe i'm a bit confused? i thought the polish would come before the glaze?

so if i do it in your suggested order the srp will add to the finish? all applied by hand btw.

i've just ordered some dodo hard candy to try out as well along with some mellow yellow and tyre gloss so will get some more pics up very soon  :smiley: got the big pre summer wash planned.

also going to do my mates type R soon so will get some pics of that as well.

lime prime is more of a polish really as it has a bit of cut in it and srp has good filling capabiltys so will fill any light swirls or holograming left after lime priming, lime prime lite is a glaze.
