2005 Subaru Impreza WRX

My first show and shine! Here are some before's and after's of the engine compartment detail I did tonight. Tomorrow, she's getting the whole enchilada, my gameplan:

Wheels and tires cleaned with DP Gel wheel cleaner
Wash with a strong mix of NXT wash
Clay with Sonus green
Polish with LC orange pad and Opt polish
I still haven't decided on an LSP yet.

Anyways, here are the photos I took today....

Hope you liked it, I'll get some pics up tomorrow after I'm done!

its actually an SPT intake system (Subaru Performance Tuning), and since its made by Subaru, its warranty friendly, too! It doesn't come on the car stock, though. My CarDomain page in my sig has all my mods so far, if anyone is interested...
