Both worked great. The IronX seemed to really react on the horizontal sections while the vertical section s weren't too bad.


Looks great!

Thank you Coralyn!

So far I washed the car thuroughly and got all that wax in the vinyl thanks to my beautiful wife and Kaizer's advice on how to carefully remove the wax. It took her the entire hour to carefully remove all that wax while I worked around her washing the car and wheels. We both had a blast and were exhausted when we finished. I wanted to try out the buttery wax but the sun was setting so I though pictures would be ok for now.

Afterward, I installed my Mishimoto catch can, upgraded the backup bulbs to LED, installed my weathertech floor mats, and I pulled fuse 51. All thats left on the list is my sto-n-go front license plate, Black lugs/wheel locks, tinted rear lights, change rear license frame (hasn't came in the mail yet) and rear lightbulb LED upgrade. Fun times indeed!

Ok, what is the deal with LEDs? I keep reading everyone post about them. What's the reasoning? And where are you getting the black wheel locks? I got wheel locks but they look so lame with my black wheels!!!

Looking good Tridius. What LEDs did you go with for the backup and tails?

You can get the black Gorilla Locks. See this thread.
