If you have some time, have a watch of these videos. Larry is a legend and knows his stuff.

He also has his own channel (not part of Drive) here which is well worth your time.

+1 on doing it yourself. You'll definitely get that sense of accomplishment. I clean my car weekly and have already clay barred and polished it. Comes out with a showroom finish.

Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille

Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.

I'll have to consult the boss, but to my memory the books are free. Sounds good. Where at?

+1.

I tried it, spent 6 hours buffing my paintwork. Looks pretty sweet after, but then went back to being shit 2 months later. Won't do it again.

You guys should fly Brett over to Sydney (SublimeFoz).
 


I put up with people from amnesty, red cross and now the cancer council almost daily hounding me!! Throw in the greens, green peace, unhcr, save the forking children and I've well and truly hit my limit for the number of fuckstains wanting me to sign something or give money. Seriously cubts,  :fork: right off.

Sweet, I'll let you know if I can make it for sure or not some time this week.

Ha ha, everyone is so against doing it yourself.

I hate detailing my car. I love the results though.

If i could trust somebody else doing it, I would never do it myself and pay cash money :P

I just noticed your new pic in the sig Cam. Looks Posted Image'ing sexy. How much did those rims set you back?

Don't worry about going off topic either; it's only Ricco.

Ho,

flying Brett over is the best option. The nan is a god at detailing, only person that cares more about your car than you!!!

Yeah, I needed bigger tyres for the foz though, So i sold the originals off and it got a bit expensive in the end. I had my heart set on these wheels, It's worth it :)
