Someone talk me down!

SOmeone talk me down! I am on cloud nine right now. I just finished detailing my HHR and used some new wax that my better half purchases at Wal-Mart on clearance for $4.00. Mother's Synwax. My car has never looked so good. It even seemed to cover all those tiny scratches that are visible from normal hand washes. I just went back and purchased a whole case of that stuff. That thing looks so good I think I'm going to sleep in the garage with it tonight. Billet grill gets installed next week, then I may be worthy to run for HHR of the month.

I washed mine yesterday in the 50 degree rain. It went from white back to sport red metallic. It needs a wax job sooooo bad right now, but it's only 34 today, and like you, the weather is all downhill from here. Guess we'll just have to move to Texas to get our HHR's all gussied up.

I noticed that after I downloaded them. Aparently my daughter does not know how to set the date on her Christmas camera. They are fresh, just took them a while ago.

Now Angie, Shame was never our intention, we were just trying to help you achieve perfection!

I say when your car is as clean and shiney as that you need to take the pictures fast and submit them for "Featured HHR" before it starts raining. That wax did the job, with plenty of elbow grease too I am sure. Look's Great!
