well managed to get a bit of cleaning done today once the driveway was in the shade of the house.
steps were foam with Ironx gel soap to remove fallout from the garage over the winter
washed with dawn soap after to make sure i removed all of the Ironx
clayed, then washed once more before i dried it.
first i used some Poorboys SSR1, then some Black hole glaze followed by EX sealant. Tomorrow ill add a few coats of Natty's Paste Wax (BLUE). All applied by hand removed by hand
interior received a good cleaning as well to remove 9 months worth of dust/dirt.
well on to some pics..
roof reflection- after the black hole glaze
hood after the glaze
after the sealant
after everything was finished full car pics
Interior- not finished or everything reinstalled yet after being recovered,

its all function, i raised the coils over 2" from last year.. I was tired of not being able to enjoy my car for what it was designed to do, as well as not be able to get in and out of half the driveways i need to daily..no tire tucking in the wheel wells at all.. Ill snap some pics later

haha ya the trees are great in the yard, not sore at all today its all about using the right products properly..
THANK YOU! I'm glad someone gets it. These cars look pretty good low, but they aren't fast in a straight line. Drop them too low and you take away their awesome maneuverability. I would die if I lost my P5's handling

You'd be surprised at the number of people on the "slammed list" here that have raised their cars.. I have 24" from the ground to the bottom of my fender.. last year i was just over 22" same wheels/tires

Those pics remind me of the birds in the Windex commercials. Good job.
Oh, I've been watching them. "Well, got my number, going back up." I feel like I'm on the verge of losing full function if I go any lower, without doing quite a bit of modding that is. I'm aggressive in corners and the topography of my area consists of lots of hills, turns, banks, flatland, straightaways, etc. You name it, so I have to be ready for it all.
