    Looks great! I like how you got everything including the wheel wells.

    I find myself spending more time on the wheels and wheel wells during the wash then on the paint. To me those really stick out on a detail, and as much time as possible should be spent on those areas.

    I can understand that... when you`ve got about 13 feet between the top of the tire and the top of the wheel well, they`re a bit more visible than on say, my S2000

    Very nice... the paint really pops.

    Absolutely. And to "Average Joe" the customer, most of the time when they see clean, shiny wheels, nicely dressed tires, and clean black wheel wells, they automatically equate that to being a clean vehicle overall. It`s like the indicator of true quality to those types of people.

    I agree and if you dont clean them up they stick out like crazy cuz everything else is so clean and shinny.
