Default New grill, wash and a polish!!

Well I've chatted and stuck my nose in to many threads so its about time I posted a pic of my car. This was taken on the saturday after I fitted my new grill and washed/polished the car. Sunday I successfully detangoed but havn't taken a pic yet, and I cant believe how shiny it looks!

Perhaps its the angle of the picture, I really like it! I changed the mesh that came with it for this finer mesh which I prefer .... but hey each to their own I suppose

Ian, lets meet up sometime and I will have a look at the grill and see if its the picture that makes it look a bit out of place.I just put a set of new alloys on my WRX and it looks pretty moody now, gunmetal really goes well with the WR Blue.

yeah some good comments!!

I know its not a pro job and its never going to get on the front cover of Max Power or whatever, and if I told you some of the issues I had first of all you'd all laugh , (I'm new to playing at modyifing big cars) so the end result I am very pleased with. With the detango the front of my car is now all nice silver and smooth, I need to do the lower grill now to complete the look!
