Awesome job indeed, love the reflections you got going on....
Do you have any problems with yellowing on the headlights? I see a few around my area that has that problem. I have one that I polish the yellow out about every 4 months? Just wondering....

The tailpipe pic priceless!

My G needs to have the headlights polished every 3-4 months to. I would guess that is why the 07 went to regular headlights and not the tear drop.

The door handles are plastic, so I taped them off completely to void any potential damage. Once I took the tape off, I polished them by hand. Te A Pillars should be not problem with the PC.

I polished them out as I did the car, and didin't really notice any particular yellowing, but then I usually do the HL when I do the cars anyway. Just part of my system.

I love it! Tell him its a hobby, not a sickness! But we will take another geeker into the family!
You did a great job on your son's car, I am sure it meant a lot to him since his dad took the time to detail it for him.

Maybe Infinity needs to have a recall on them.

you did a great job on his new car. looks really nice.
easy on the QD...easy to ruin that nice polish job on a black car. i know it is tempting but a wash is much safer.
