    It`s just a normal grocery getter.. but I love it either way. 2000 Impala LS. GM "Bright White" paint, etc etc.











    Just a little basic wash, clay, wash, wax yesterday.



    I`ll be learning a lot about polishes, waxes, chemicals in the next few coming months from this forum. I`ve been a member for awhile.



    Anyhow, thanks for looking

    Meguiar`s gold class paste wax. I would`ve used meguiar`s smooth surface clay kit clay, but my s*** was dirty. I used my brother`s clay bar, mother`s cali gold. Shh!

    Thanks ! I`m a pontiac nut too. Previously I had a 1995 Bonneville SE, which I found out later was an SLE by the RPO Code. I bought it with crosslace rims, ended up getting torque stars from a 1994 SSEi in august of `06, put those on til i wore the tires down in feb. `07, sold it in september of `07.. the last nail in the coffin was when the security module went bad and the pass key system wouldn`t let the car start, and it was a nightmare. $400 later, it worked. I put a tranny rebuild in, a motor from a 1999 Grand Prix GT, and some other stuff. I was hard on it, so it was mostly my fault. Was a quick little 3450 pound car with the 3.06 FD and a 3800 with the first year of the 3.8 series 2 , with very little PCM Restriction. 0-60 clicked off in less than 7.4 from the factory.



    Here`s pics from between march 6, 2006 to February of `07 when I put the stock rims back on. This is what got me into keeping cars clean.





    .







    Basically after different tails in the next shots..from a 1994 SSEi.



    some hood reflection, tail pics, and front end with fixed lamps.











    after new rims, some various shots from between august 06/february 07.















    what you are about to see might make you sh** bricks. I know I did.









    All better.









    And a few reflection shots on snow and at lake michigan, lake michigan was taken before the salt and clean pics above by a week and a half. Unbelievable, right ?













    One last shot taken FEB. 22, 2007, day after I put the crosslaces back on. The torque stars and goodyear RSA`s were worn from what I was doing
