    Anyone recommend a good claybar?

    I like the Sonus Green or Grey depending in contamination levels. Lube just make from car shampoo and water. Be prepared you car will look worse than before you clay it so maybe look into a more abrasive polish than SRP to use after.

    has any one wired up there flash with their fog lights

    The 106 has driving lights rather than fogs - the glass gives a long direct beam rather than the wide beam of light fogs would give. My 309 GTi had both driving a fog lights, was awesome for late night blast.

    Everybody loves a good hand job!

    I get better results using the SRP in Circular motions and then follow it up with straight lines. If you used that much polish on a Black car it would be covered in dust when you remove it - hence why people slate AG SRP on here for dusting as most use to much. It works as you have done it...
