Shiny hood reflection...

For those wondering, I washed the car with Dawn from top to bottom, then used Mother's Clay Bar kit, then washed it again with Dawn, then Mother's Sealer and Glaze applied with my variable speed drill and the Mother's Power Ball, removed by hand with microfiber towels, followed by Mother's Syn Wax in the same manner. I think the results are pretty good. All these pictures were taken at dusk so some of them are a bit grainy.

New painted mirrors:

New Ford Racing "Bullitt" style strut tower brace powdercoated to match my cam covers and other stuff:

Clearance of the brace with the intake cover:

New MRT hood struts: (will be getting the brackets coated soon)

And finally new hood blanket (liner) for strut brace clearance:

if you are talking about Dawn, like the dish detergant, i wouldnt use it... washing detergants eat away at your paint and wax....but otherwise looks gorgeous

I don't recommend using dish soap. I've used it once, and what I did was this.
Washed with Dish Soap(VERY SMALL AMOUNT)
Claybarred
Washed with Zaino car wash
Used Zaino Paint Polish

called it a day.

Trust me using Zaino you can get amazing results out of it, and your car will thank you. It may be a little more expensive, but it's great.

Looks great. Is the car black or alloy?
