Washed the car yesterday.

After work I got the car out and started washing. As I'm drying the car off I notice rain clouds over head so I broke out the leaf blower to speed up the drying process and pulled the car in the garage to finish wiping it down and to do the interior as well.

Here are some pix.

I could never own a black car, too obsessive about dirt/dust. Looks great! What are you tinting?

As am I and right now it's killing me because I was caught in the rain the other day and now there are water spots on the car and I haven't had a chance to wash it again. So it's just sitting in the garage waiting for me to get to it this evening after work.

I'm going to tint the reflectors in the bumper valance as well as the corner markers. Looking at the third brake light but it already has a smoked look to it so may just leave that alone. Humidity here has been

so I'm waiting till I spray everything. Probably looking at September before I can paint them.

I've also been kicking around the idea of tinting the fogs. I've seen that AM sells pre-cut pcs you can cover them with. Just thinking maybe I'd get a roll of tint and try cutting some myself. I've looked around online to see if there are any templates, no such luck.
