Seen as everyone does this on a Sunday, Thought i may as well do one.

Gave it a clean and a polish using turtle wax shampoo, then Poorboys black hole topped off with some autoglym hi def wax. Looks like new again!

Best way to do it. Get them cheap enough, Do them up then sell on for a bit more (Hopefully!)

The shampoo i use is the one that comes in the big 25litre tubs from costco. Never had it leave any white marks on the car so far!

Couldn't beleive how easy the black hole is to use though, Near enough a wipe on wipe off product. Doesn't leave any white marks either!

Just looking for some sri turbo wheels. Think i know where there is a set of black ones.

Will see if they are still there in a few weeks when I have a bit more cash.
