Freshly washed and waxed Evo

Just thought I'd like to share. Here are some pics of my Evo, freshly washed, vacuumed, and waxed with Meguair's Gold Class (wheels too):















In case you're wondering, I took these pics using Canon's Powershot G2.

I used Meguair's Hot Shine (tire shine), but the sun wasn't shining on the sides, so you can't tell.

I don't see why the carbon fiber needs special care to wash it, so yes, just soap and water is fine. I use Meguair's Deep Crystal car wash for the soap. Hehe, I am a Meguair's fan .

I actually live in the Kingwood area, north of Houston. Houston really isn't that bad with smog, even though we're one of the worse cities for that. Maybe if I lived in downtown, I'd complain more, but in Kingwood, the air is nice.

Thanx!! Hehe...took me 3 damn days! 3 days which I did not drive it ! Well, first day, I took my time spending about 4hrs washing, waxing, vacuuming the whole car, except the wheels. The next two days, I spent jacking up the car and taking the wheels off to individually clean and wax those, an hour each day. This is the first time I've ever done something like this, so hopefully the times will speed up.

I added multiple pics in one post because I hosted the pics on my own web server.
