So fresh and so clean [Pics]

Just got the car detailed. It had severe swirls and webbing on pretty much the entire car. They are no longer there thanks to Joe @ Superiorshine. If any of you live in the 626 area I'd recommend Joe. Check out their work at www.superiorshine.com

He just needs some nice tips welded on since the stockers look to have ejected themselves.

I love the way your car looks, very clean and nice -- the missing tips do detract from the rear end a bit though.

rx7newb, the car looks great. I've always loved black FD's and yours is nice and clean. Great job.

Great choice on exhausts too.

Looks great! I can't keep my FD clean for more than 24 hours unless parked in the garage with the cover over it.

I have a stock touring!, minus intake and catback exhaust!

I spent like 2500 on body damage, trying to keep as much original paint as possible! ours look very similar cept yours has a spoiler/no sunroof! rock on man! it looks sweet!

also I wash my car every 2 days, whether it be washing it w/ soap or spraying it down w/ water and squeeejeeeing off the soil! rock on and keep it up!

VERY clean looking car, my only suggestion would be to clean up/refinish that R1 lip

Is it just me or are the "Mazda" and "RX-7" emblems switched (RX-7 should be on top and Mazda on the bottom), or has it just been too long since I switched to Efini emblems?

You're correct. Mazda is still in the same place, but the RX-7 was moved below it. I had to look at old pictures of my car to confirm this.

Yea... only time will tell as I'm restoring the car what other lil surprises the previous owner left me. As for anyone interested in Joe's service, the price depends on condition of paint, etc.. He charged me 275 I guess because my car is black and the condition of the paint was HORRIBLE. Pricey but I'm glad I wasn't the one washing and buffing in 90 degree weather.
