Default Freshly Detailed Photoshoot (56K Stay Away!)

My dealer owed me a free detail (long story) so I took advantage of it on Thursday when I took my baby in for an oil change. They did a pretty darn good job, although there are still some spots that need some work. Anyways, here are a few pics:

**Yes I know my Exhaust needs work but I really dont feel like working in a non air conditioned garage when it's 107 outside with a heat index of 112.**

Pics look great!! Black always looks great when it is freshly buffed. I like the B&W pics, reminds me of a brochure shot.

Good lookinn car especially when they are clean and shiny. I also have an 08 IS350 black on black. Have you been harrassed by DPS or the local wannabes especially the Corsicana Flintstones for not having the front plate mounted?
