Looks great !! you got that deep dark shine going on the meteor mica.
My felt the stock Dueler H/L 400 tires were absolutely horrible in the snow and ice though, CX-9 slid even at the slightest snow
I swapped them out for CrossContact LX20 with EcoPlus Technology, so much better

I sound like a billboard for Meguiar's, but I've been using their stuff since the early 2000's and have always been impressed by the quality and results Sounds like a ton of work for a brand new car, but I figured if i start out right (fully protected, contaminants removed) it will just make my life easier in the future.
Thats some good stuff right there, I am a Meguiars junky myself, Just washed mine yesterday with megs stuff and added a coat of Meguiars Ultimate Paste Wax. good stuff.
Ha! I just never wash my cars! With frequent enough rainfall, the car actually doesnt look too dirty most of the time.Woot! Good on you @Reggie Watts for throwing up some "real life pictures"... I guess you're getting closer to converting your car to that "Titanium Flash Mica" from the other thread (naughty)
Voldsom, that looks sweet, love the color, same color I have, did you take a wide angle shot of the whole car, I would like to see how well the Mequiar's 7 Mirror Glaze works. I'm assuming it's a extremely fine grit polish that removes the swirls from the clearcoat ? what kind of pad do you use with it ?

DoubleJ96, that looks awesome, nothing like a black car just washed and waxed.
Are the rims Plasti-dipped ?
