I've got a carbon grey, and it does look mean.  A bit like a scuttling beetle ready to strike.

Thought I'd add in my newly cleaned car and try to revive this thread a bit.

I'm still using the same products although I've not added a Farecla Clay Mitt to my kit which is excellent and have used Fusso Soft Coat Dark wax which I'm really impressed with (doesn't seem to attract as much dust as Autoglym HD wax)

Wow. That is a perfect height for a car imo. Unusual for a production car! (Although I guess the R is not your typical production car)

I've not had chance to picture whore ours since I sorted it, so here goes  :smiley:

Dealer only removed the wraps, nothing else, not even a rinse down as asked. Even had the plastic on the GTD bit of the steering wheel. Dealer was great about my "strange" request  :laugh:, anyway, here it is fresh from a light machine to get the gloss up and Wolfs Hardbody



And a close up, just 'cos
