Looks nice, bby ;) But this would've been a lot easier if it were WARM (so that my hands and tits could've stayed attached to my body) and if I didn't have to squeeze around your garage to get shots. *Sigh*
For the record, you are the most anal person in the world about detailing..but I guess it pays off I was truly impressed to watch cause you def changed my perception on what cleaning a car involves, ha

Just to let you know your frame rails don't have undercoating. Looks good otherwise, clean.
P.S. Who uses a brush on wheels? Be a man and use your tooth brush.

must be nice to be able to wash your car inside your garage. Mine is used for storage mostly and i can pull my car half way in if i need light at night or trying to work on it in the rain or something.
Nice detail also!!
