Well good luck with yours.

I put mine into a Car Detailing company, and this is how it came back.

Polished Bliss did a good job on mine. I think Gareth had his done by them too and recommended them.

It's just so easy to see everything that's wrong with black paint though :(

They did offer the mobile service, however I have no access to my garage, and with the weather being so unpredictable, would be a nightmare to organise. Besides, I need all the practise I can get :)
