I got the idea from a friend who done it but then sadly killed his one, think it just makes that subtle difference
Shiny lookin', verry nice.
That looks very nice! Do it yourself? Rotary or DA?
Shiny shiny

My friend at work done it all for me, he used to work in a bodyshop and now valets and details Porsches for a living, it was done with a rotary mop using Autoglym Paint Pro Renovate - Stage 1 and Stage 2 alongside with G6 Rapid Advanced Dry Use Liquid Compound and Advanced G3 Liquid Compound then Autoglym Radiant Wax and finished off with Autoglym Rapid Detailer..
P.S he's available for private bookings
lol

I'll upload some for ya later
you get left with the holes that the bolts go through to secure the roof rails which I intend to fill and smooth over but for the moment I've just put the bolts back in and tightened them up to prevent any water leaks
You can see the bolts in the 3rd pic jamie
I need my china estate looking like this!

Well to be honest I got it as a spares and repairs buy from eBay for £360 and it needed a fair bit of work doing to it.

It needed a new rear axle which I've tried showing in those pics, new front wiper blades, several bulbs, brakes all round, 2 tyres, N/S/F driveshaft seal had perished, MOT, tax and a good loving on the outside because of marks like these

but all in I've roughly spent about £750 including the car so if this one can look so nice I'd bet yours would look amazing

Well it's good to see a proper car in the workshop

ahh so they bolt into the roof rather than studs coming out of the roof.
