Looks very very clean that - a credit to you.

But the bodykit looks awful (in my opinion)

Still shiney though

Agreed! Body kit aint to my liking but the rest of it is seriously f,ing impressive.

Well done.

P.S What is your secret to all that shine anyway?

Hi m8's the lights in there where very good and the photo is taken normal it is not a HDR but I use photoshop on all my photos and they are taken in RAW format so you can fix the contrast and more if it is needed

I used scratch remover from dodo juice to get some acid spots of the car

after that I used dodo juice lime prime to get dirt of the paint

and final a use concept teflon wax to get a long lasting shine and protection

hope this helps

I used this a few years ago and was pleased with the results, some of the guys in my area who were/are into detailing slated the stuff for reasons unknown to me.

Is this the stuff in the aerosol tin? If it is I wasn't a fan either. I tried it and found it didn't last that long.

If you've got a white / silver car use an acrylic product on it after polishing to get a great shine. Something like Werkstatt Acrylic is great and will see similar results to the op pics. That Teflon stuff is nice and easy to use though isn't it.

Ah RAW files can be manipulated to similar levels and get the same effects as HDR. With RAW you get to create extra layers that replicate additional exposure levels instead of having to take them like you do with HDR
