Clean X
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

RE: Clean X
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.

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.

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

RE: Clean X
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.
