Spent a few hours on my baby today. When finished I took a few pics as I thought she was lookin good.
Washed n dried, windows cleaned, door sills taken care of, tyres dressed and pipes shined. Full valet of the interior as well, all carpets vacuumed and dash shined too.
Finished off with a nice lemon fragrance to freshen her up inside too

Looking good Jim

 

what a sweet lookin jag

 

Great stuff dear mod
The thread title sounded like a cleaning product .
Clean X cleans and removes dirty from anything lol

 

Almost looks as clean as my car, lol.

J/p yours probably cleaner. What that yellow thing where the jag emblem usually is, in front of the front door.

Is that what the spoiler on an X looks like, cuz that looks better than I thought a spoiler would look on an X. i imagined a real ugly looking like mustang type spoiler that would look all outta place.

 

the yellow thing is an arden badge

 

It is the Arden badge 93.....I haven't actually added any Arden mods to be honest, just the badge. Don't think it looks to outta place though!
The spoiler is just nice, quite discreet, not too OTT and compliments the rear nicely.
Re the finish on the car........The paintwork is in really pretty good shape for its age with no dings or marks to speak of and does look pretty good when all cleaned up.
It'd still benefit from a session with Mathew at " Off your Marks" though.
I'm still considering whether or not wer'e gonna keep her though as the wife has a bee in her bonnet about a convertible. Audi A4, Saab 93 or Merc looking fav at the moment.
If we keep her, I think for sure I need to at least add the redstuff pads, possibly the rotors ( check the originals to see what lifes left in them) mesh grill and maybe the detail from Mathew.
There's no real point in spending all those bucks if its gonna go.

Anyone else got pics of their baby recently clean X'd and lookin good?

Jim

 

I'll get back to you on the picture part...looking good mate but sad to hear you might be letting her go
Talk her into an xk convertible!

 

Look forward to it Aquill..........I'm sure you've got more than a few good pics tucked away somewhere!
Don't really wanna let her go to be honest, but, she's really bustin my *** for a convertible. The fuel is a killer too, not that she does that many miles but just drinks the stuff.
XK convertible would be nice.......you gonna help with the payments?...lol
Even if she does go, I don't think I'd ever leave this site......Its been way too much fun

Jim

 

Well thats good to hear! Although I've heard that lately and still haven't seen the people around here! Get a used xk they are quite a bit cheaper than the new ones!

 

Yeah.....seem to be a few people went AWOL recently.........maybe its holiday time? Who knows?
I haven't really kept up my posting on the Audi site though, they seem a different breed altogether[&:]
Nowhere near as "friendly" and not so much banter either[&:]

Yeah I bet...German aholes!

 

Looking good Jim. I just waxed my X Type this weekend. It looks like a mac daddy.... I used the New Turtle Wax Ice. That thing is wicked.... I loved it. You can get in on the plastic and it doesn't leave any white residue. Makes the plastic nice and shiny....

 

It rained yesterday, so when i went outside today the car was filthy! it was a 100 degrees outside so i didnt really feel up to washin the car. I knew if i left it the water marks wud have become permanant on the new paint so i had to take it to get it washed. Looking real clean now, will post pic a pic in just a bit after i take one.

 

How much of the car did they paint 04?

 

the hood , bumper, left fender as all these parts were replaced.

 

They all match up pretty good or are those three nice and shiny and the rest of the car kind of dull? I'd imagine they'd have to buff, polish and wax the whole car though wouldn't they?

 

04 / Dunhill!!!!!
No pics? Especially you 04.........jeez, just got it all sorted after the accident, should be lookin real nice.
Dunhill.....yours alllll waxed n lookin good.....no pics?
An nuthin from Aquill either?
