Default Inspiration by Fraz (aka bufty boy) and others......

With the wife out shopping and gaining inspiration from Fraz and others, i changed, no not into the wife's underwear, but into a bufty!!

a few buckets of water and some clay bar, quick detailer and mequiers gold glass wax later = one very happy matt. i even broke open my cuban cigars afterwards.

if you've not used one before make sure you use plenty of detailer. don't be tight with it. otherwise it sticks to the car and leaves clay behind instead of removing the dirt that you're aiming for.

it's a bugger for wind resistance. this ferrari that i had for a few days had the same ariel as well.



i let the wife shop. she went with the mother in law. she's nearly 7 months pregnant. i thought it'd be a bit unfair to ask her to help.

just picked the wife up from the in-laws. after not even noticing how clean the car is, i told her that i'd spent several hours cleaning it and had taken some new pics. her response was "god you're sad" i just felt like
