    My attempt towards making my 2011 G37xS shine!

    Firstly, apologies for the iphone pics, camera stolen from the car this past weekend during a daytrip to St. Louis. The sun was being very difficult as well, so I worked with what I had.

    Washed with Megs Gold Class, 2 bucket, chenille wash mitt, 2 grit guards. Mothers VLR on the leather and door/dash plastics, vacuumed with a Rigid portable shopvac.

    GG polisher used, Duragloss 501/601 combo used to clean
    the paint with a white LC pad, removed with MF bonnets. 2 Coats of Duragloss 105/601 combo, applied with an LC blue, removed the same way.

    Tires are Duragloss #253 rubber dressing. I'll try to post some better pics in a day or 3, but I was really excited about how it all came out and wanted to show them.














    Thanks for checking them out!

    Looks great. Do you even sit in those seats? The leather still looks very tight. I didn't realize that they did such a good job on the upholstery. nice car.

    It has about 14k on it now, had it about 15 months now. It's been on one road trip so far, from S. Illinois to the Toronto Ontario area last Fall. Very nice it is a bit firm-riding but I don't mind and it makes it handle quite well. They seem to be really well put together.

    Good looking ride!

    I think there is a warning using VLR on plastics.........I may be thinking of something else tho.

    Still it looks great!

    Have I ever told you Pearlescent White is another one of my favorite colors? This G37 is stunning and by the looks of the interior no one sits in it....

    Look at that finish!!

    Thewy are a genuine infiniti accessory. I bargained for them during the sales deal, along with the clear bra and window tinting.
