this car was completely trashed when i got to it.... already having 30 thousand miles, and not being taken car of what so ever. i will list the steps that i used to detail it later on. sorry the interior pics have some dirt on the mats, since the pics were taken a day later... too bad the car is already gettin dirty within 12 hours of being clean... such a nice car...

has he been maintaning it at all? What products did ou use and how? What did you do to the interior? Who is that guy with the head band? I personally would get the jap. spec tailights, can't stand the clear.4 Evo's are great, 4g63 power!!
 
Lets hear the products used and do ya have any before pics? Maybe some "before headband" pics? :):) Just kiddin man !!!
 
I can vouge for this car. It is always a mess. Very sad to see :(



Did you end up doing any intense swirl removal?



He's definately gotta lose the "WWW.MRGPIZZA.COM" windshield sticker :D
 
lol... no i dont have any before headband pics or before pics of the car... first of all, i did the car on the same day that i did a benz e55 amg, and a bmw 325ci, so i was exhausted... i could barely lift my arms to wash the evo, let alone polish and wax it. the kid with the headband is the driver of the evo. to give u an idea of how bad the car is, he drives it like how its supposed to be driven (90-100 on the highway tailgating people, always slamming on the brakes, tracking dirt inside the car) also, he never cleaned the wheels, just the car itself, and when he did, he used turtle wax on it. poor evo... but yeah, i hate the tail lights on it now... i think their ugly... i def like the other ones which are all red. as for the process of bringing this car back from hell.... i washed with mothers, then clayed the entire car, followed by meguiars #83, the meguiars #82. after that i used sonus paint cleanser (i always thought u had to use the paint cleanser before polishing, but after talking to peggy on the phone, she says to use it after polishing). as far as wax goes i just put on a coat of nxt for now because it was gettin really late and he had to go out... im gonna klasse it later on and put p21s on top. as far as the interior, i used 303 carpet cleaner, 1z glass cleaner, 1z cockpit premium, and some other 1z products which i dont remember the names... (really long w/ lots of letters)... oh yeah.. on the tires i put 303 rubber/vinyl protectant on it. yeah he should lose the sticker on the front of the car... looks kinda stupid...
 
lol... i kinda like it... it has a carbon fiber blade... which i think is a nice touch... especially for something that is oem
 
I was kinda surprised at how much "rice" Mitsu put on the evo also. what are those litle white specks on the carpet? How exactly did you clean the wheels and apply 303 on them?
 
those white specs are from dirt... the pics were taken a day after due to the fact that the day before, i didnt finish until 1030, so it was too dark to take pics... inbetween that time my friend (works for his dads pizza shop) has to make multiple deliveries, including @ the beach... so there goes the clean nice mats... i cleaned the wheels with meguiars hot rims cleaner, and then waxed them... i put 303 on the tires by spraying it on the tires, and then wiping it completely around the tire with foam app. after that i left it sit for about 3 minutes, then wiped away the excess with a towel... this makes the tire have a nice dark black matte finish... im not really into the glossy look... unless thats what a customer specifies...

Same here, I like the matte of 303 on tires, it makes them just look new, the point of tire dressings right? Well, thats what I look for at least. Anyway, very nice job on the Evo, give him some MF and QD and make him love his car! lol
 
lol... thats exactly what i did... (meguiars quik detailer and a microfiber towel).. after seeing his car covered in a layer of dirt 3 days after it was detailed, i had to give him that stuff.. lol... some people just cant grasp the concept of taking care of their car...
