Got to giving the car some TLC over the weekend

Rear lights a bit tired so cleaned sealed and laminex to freshen them up.

The car the got a foam bath and a clay bar.
Started with paint correction over 2 stages then a final wax..
The front of the car has complete vps which is aged and marks which we managed to get allot better.

Overall very happy with the outcome.

Got to changing the angel eyes and non xenon bulbs.

What a bitch of a job.Took me 7 hours to do both..
Had to remove front wheels and wheel arch lining.
Then the fun starts trying to remove the torque screws on the angel eyes.
Takes patience and small hands

But very happy with the results..
will take some better picks of the lighting.
