Shelby-

It took me about 2 hours and 20 minutes. Not bad in my book.


However, I did not detail the interior.


I am going in it tonight with a slightly damp microfiber to get the dust off.


Thanks for all the comments everybody!

So to do your brakes did you use the jack that came with the car and do one wheel at a time?

love the red calipers
like on my 03 cobra 10th ann
but why do the calipers make little weird rings instead of a smooth finish on the rotor?

You mean on the disc how there are little rings?


If that is what you mean, I am taking the car in soon anyway so the brakes will stop squeeling.

Congratulations on a nice detailng job on your car you don,t know how lucky you are weather wise! My car hasn,t been washed in about two months it,s silver so i guess i can get away wiyh it more. I hope the next dry day is soon but it rains a lot in British Columbia at this time of the year.

Yup. Southern California is great for washing cars. Hardly ever rains but is sometimes too sunny to wax. Luckily I was behind some trees
