Rare 02 Blaze Yellow WRX Detailed

Got the call to detail his stock 02 Blaze WRX (with 142k on original motor/ 5 spd!) again. I've done his car a handful of times over the last few years.

Blaze Yellow was only available in 02 as a Sedan, according to the owner they only made/imported about 450 Blaze Yellow's.

Car got the standard:

Washed with Foaming Gun
DACP, Meguiars Red Cutting Pad, PC7424
Topped with NXT
Tires got Meguiars HyperDressing 3:1, buffed dry
Glass cleaned with Stoners


Pics:

No full car befores:

Hood before:


After:


Like in almost all WRX's, the hood scoop, mirrors and F/R bumpers are a little faded/off in color. The yellow especially fades quite a bit. No worries.

Headlight (not in too bad shape) before:

Re: Rare 02 Blaze Yellow WRX Detailed

huge turnaround on the scoop especially. You really don't notice the lack of reflection on light colored cars until they are polished up. Nice job

I think you are missing your headlight before picture though.

Long live the bugeye! When you say rare you're right, I think I've only seen one before. Nice work.
