Back to Black!

[Az636]

Hi All,

Just wanted to share some pictures now that the car ACTUALLY looks Black. We all know how hard it is to keep a black car clean, but my this thing was just down right beaten up. I wish I had an accurate picture to show BEFORE but I don't :/

None the less previous owner had a vacay home about 200 miles out that they kept going too, so road debris & rocks chipped away at it. Got a local friend who's detailer here and he brought this thing back to LIFE. I have some plans which I can finally get under way, but that's another story for another day. Wanted to share the pics so here it is!

And it will look filthy after one rain and or 3 days later.

VERY nice job though! I'll still take white any day of the week. I hated my black vehicles!

Haha I hear ya. Granted, it was sprayed down w/ opti-seal so the rain actually flies right off and doesn't leave stains (yet)

You made me want to ditch work and go home detail my 4runner.

Optiseal works pretty well. Just make sure you 'freshen' it up with the OPT QD or ONR. I noticed that if you don't use OPT products (wash, QD) it doesn't last nearly as long.

Nice work, I can't wait until my back is up to doing this on my truck

I love the white Talon! I had a white Talon TSi AWD back in college many years ago, and to this day that's still my favorite car of all time.

Oh, and nice detail on the black 4Runner, too!

I've had (1) first gen GSX, a couple of 2nd gen GSXs ( Nothing like the first gen GSX though.) , and an EVO.. .. So yes, the 4G63 is something I fell in love with a while ago
