Will get some pics done once detailed and new front indicators added etc etc.

A couple for now.
It's been washed for the first time today and i've detailed the black bit's as they desperately needed it which has thrown up a couple things that need rectifying. The car still needs a good detail in that the paint needs some fine polishing to remove swirls that showed up when the sun came out. I'll need 2 whole perfect days to apply some 3M Finesse-it then some 3M Ultrafina SE followed by a sealant and wax which i'm looking forward to doing if the weather plays ball.

I know it's your car, but.........
If it was me I'd definitely leave all the badges off the boot.
Refresh the black powder coat on the exhaust tips, and maybe respray the towbar a darker shade of anthracite so as it is not quite so 'bright'.
Notwithstanding any of the above, it obviously looks fabulous.
Enjoy, won't be hard.

Thanks David, always appreciate good ideas, was just thinking the same thing about the exhaust tips and thanks for the idea on darker shade of anthracite for the tow bar! I'm going to take you up on that as the tow bar is standing out like a sore thumb, great idea!
David, could you by any chance measure carefully your S6 rear badge and the 4 rings please? i'm keeping her standard looks wise.96 URS6 plus speck saloon

Others should be able to make you a paper template and post it to you.

Cheers Anthony, it seams there's quite a few of us now who are showing the love to our cars and i'm sure you'll agree it's so satisfying as you'll know with your car.

Just a couple of weekends ago I parked up to get a sandwich and a couple shouted me over and they were amazed by my S2 asking questions and asking how it stays so clean and looking good and I replied cause am sad and insist on the car looking good most of the time and takes as you know alot of money time and effort in maintaining!! They were also gobsmacked when i said I had the car for 18 years lol!!!96 URS6 plus speck saloon
