Can this shine anymore?
Hello friends! :itsme:

I was back from KL, meeting KC. I had to start my first detail after the trip.


This was my baby, a 2004 Honda Civic V-tec. (Not anymore! She’s someone else’s now. But I still love her.)
Obviously, being a house member, she expected more attention from me. So, I couldn't choose any other ride. I remember KC saying take care of the family first!

(I’ve lost a lot of pictures of her due to a data transfer gone wrong. What’s remaining is from mobile phone).

This was her state - a wild black stallion that deserved to be tamed and pampered.







I started off early dawn, before the rays of the sun warmed our small island. I set myself a target of finishing it early. Washed, clayed and the “hard-work-fun” comes into play.
No fillers, No waxes, just the usual Menz stuff and the rotary.



Under the sun



Needs refining

Under light gun





Refined further with a little and plenty of passion

Buffing out polish residue



I was exhausted in the end. 2 days of hard work, non-stop. Painful back, goldfish eyes, popeye’s arms! I went out early morning the following day with all the pain. And my baby was there, so sweet, so cute, it smiled. The pain disappeared, I felt blessed by Almighty, reignited.



The door




My next victim




Which is which?




The hood during the day




The reflections




Can this shine anymore?





Water pebbles on paint




Upside down ... more impressive



When others envy your ride’s shine, it’s BeyondShine.

Thanking God again and again for making yet another detailing dream come true!


Thanks for viewing

Cheers and happy Independence Day (to all Mauritians around the world and in Malaysia, and to everyone esp. zth members) :driver:

Cheers :itsme:

First impressions driving out of BMW Malaysia HQ, the 320i Sport felt surprisingly poised. Base model, excellent G20 platform, almost like a no frills, lite version of the 330i that rides superbly well on the new-ish township roads of Cyberjaya.

Drive

The 320i Sport runs on a pure mechanical suspension, conventional springs and hydraulic shocks, just like the more premium 330i, but...
