I had been promising Geoff for a while that I would try and put some sparkle back into them.

They had gone really flat and looked grey rather than black, a lack of polish over the years is to blame.

Several hours of deep cleaning and a couple of coats of polish has given them a new lease of life. :happy7:

The pic was to show the contrast of the rears I had cleaned against the front which needed doing.

Your Speedster is looking good, mate. Should sound better as well when you've got the exhaust swopped over.

Is this detailing lark a service that you offer Sean?

If so, you are quite welcome to come up to the North East and clean the 968 :D

Just so I can see how it should be done...... :wink:

At the minute I'm just doing favours for mates, maybe I'll set up in the spring.
