L

Laura

Car  AMV8, Mk1 Golf
well it begins tonight...

finishing putting my sub box together and wiring it all in for the comp at trax. o this is going to be amusing to say the least lol,

then tomorow good old clean, got a few bits to do for the show, then checking levels for the drive,

setting off silly early on sunday morning
 
5 :O ok not that silly lol,
think we are going bout 6.30 we set off at 7 from the hotel last year and it wasnt that bad
 
lol i'd begin to prep mine but seems to me its a bit of a lost cause lol
ill give it a wash, polish and a wax tomorow (in the rain:mad:lol) and check levels methinks :)
mines guna be the least impressive there lmao
 
Another coat of wax on mine later and a anti static Quick Detail and the outside is done.

Just the interior plastics and leather to do for an hour tommorrow and she's all ready.
 
Didnt know you were going Rich?
ill have to see how "clean" this car is they rave about ;)
Have to have a chat :)
 
Mine's just gettin a quick wash. It'll be filthy again by the time I get down there. Plus with all the scratches on the damn bonnet it's not worth cleaning well :mad: :mad: :dapprove: :(
 
mine will be filthy by the time we get there, bottle of water, bucket and sponge easly sorted once on the stand :)
 
might do that as well taylor ^^ good idea :D
guna take some qwik detailer as well :) and maybe some tyre gel :P lol

Guna get plastered though if the roads are wet :( and if were on grass :S
 
most of its on concrete, i do that at everyshow, at modded nats i did a ful wash and polish lol
 
haha ^^ good work ;p
soo do we think were guna get some verbal at Trax?
LOL Chav's + Performance & Subtly Mod'd Clio's =
 
Unsure what my car will look like after the early morning cross country Cotswold blast, could come the cleaner boring route but doubt I will bother.

2 buckets and some Quick and Easy wash and Quick Detailer may be neededon arrival I think.
 
mines going to take a good battering tommorow, stupid b*astard tree keeps sapping on me car :( its all over my dads M5 as well lol Bloody stuff dosent come off with out a fight the autoglym stuff isnt that impressive either, but comes off after i work it in.
My dad un-educated in detailing decided to use some Graffiti removal spray to get his off :S luckily i managed to get it all off before the idiot cained his paint lol
 
^ he speaks the truth ;)

clays wonderful stuff, if you havent tried it give it a blast, makes the paint feel like glass, although quite time consuming.

mines gettin a clay, poorboys hand polish, an amigo, and a P21 prob when i get there
 
Have you got the ticket yet Taylor ?? posted it yesterday .. :)

No cheque in this am's post though :(
 
Don't think i'm gonna get the chance to spend much time on mine :( due to the weather, hope its clear enough later and i should be able to wash it at least! :( :(
 
Err do we have to have clean cars I was thinkign best I'd manage is to turn up on time my cars not been washed for some time.
