First Clean / First Pics

[JoeF]

Gave the car its first clean today as it was a nice day and sun was out, could only manage to wash it and dry it as didnt have any money to buy some other stuff, when i get some money im gonna get some meguairs gear. But for just a wash and dry i think its not bad at all. Only thing i dont like is the bloody rusty discs and front right headlight misting up and rear slightly

Little white marks?
A good polish over then wax with microfibre towels will bring it up a treat.
Scratch-X is good, a lot of effort involved in getting slight to medium scratches or swirls out but overall its looking awesome!

 

[JoeF]

whats the mod? hopefully i dont have to do any dismantling lol as ill break the things, well the grill when i got the car had a big whole on it where it had cracked, they are just replacing it with the normal FR one, if i had money ide get the newer one put on. Mine is the MK Seat dealer

take it its worth paying for the meguairs ones or is any just as good? dont mind putting effort and time into getting scratches out, pay day end of month so will invest. Think the last pic it looks very shiney for what i did

[gazjones]

[goble]

money for the poor hey?????

 

[Bunnin]

I think the best mod you could do 1st is the suspension coz the ibiza mk4 sits so high!!

But if ur a lil strapped 4 cash right now maybe a Forge strut brace or a cold air feed induction kit

Hey Joe.. looking good there buddy.

Ive got the same car in black too, and polished it after months of just washing it. The paint work went dull and looked naff, but after using Megs step system it came up looking spanky again.. and that was just using the step 1!!!! Didnt get a chance to use step 2 and 3 as it started to rain grrrr. But deffo look after the paintwork and itll gleam all day long.

I got some time free this week so will try to do it again, wanna finish all 3 steps this time!! And poss clay bar it first too.
