Was bored today, So went and tried to sort my bonnet out a bit.. It's got some weird markings, like waters stains i think.. deff no lacquer peel..!

This was all done by hand.. as cant afford a polisher.. :oops:

Pics:

See the water marks...!

50/50 Polished!

After a clay bar, 2 polishes, 2 waxes this is the result:

Dude, your car looks awesome, much better now you lowered it even further. My car is sat higher than yours n have trouble with speed bumps around here, how do you manage it?

Did you weigh your carbon bonnet at all? The stock prelude bonnet weighs in at 20kg dead.
