Great job, and beautiful Shelby! Yours is probably my favorite color combination on those, it looks sick on those cars.

Yep. After much discussion about "love touches" on AG, I decided after a long drive to a show I am not wiping my car down with WW and a MF towel.

I personally feel that I am lightly scratching the paint and would rather wait and wash with hose and dry with leaf blower.

Car looked very clean after 2.5 hr drive. Nothing stuck to the paint.

Nice!!

Thanx.

I don't have crazy mods, but whatever is done is tastefull and looks factory and very clean. I feel that the detailing knowledge makes the car stand out.

One persone said to me I see other Grabber Blue Shelby's and Mustangs here but your paint looks different, almost like a different color :props:

So big thanx to AG and AGO members for all the tips, tricks, posts, threads, customer serivce, knowledge and great detailing community :dblthumb2:.
