Default Got Bored, Washed the GS and took Pics (lots) ...

Ok guys so I got out of work early and had some spare time so I washed my car for the first time in 3 weeks (since it's been raining non-stop) and took some pictures.

WARNING:
- I am not a professional photographer
- My front and rear bumpers need to be repainted BADLY
- As you'll see in some pictures, I have the dreaded headlight condensation problem
- I know I need a drop
- The camera used was a Canon Power Shot SD870 IS

Comments both positive and negative are welcome, as well as suggestions, and if you have any questions about anything for any reason ask away

Enjoy the pics:

Thanks man, I actually used the Plastic X on the headlights already and they are almost crystal clear, but because of the condensation right after the wash, it makes them look more dull
