After 2 weeks of constantly putting my car in and out of workshops my Skyline is finally ready for Autosalon 2006!! Jamal from Current Trendz had ripped off the old tribal design, put on the new design and redid the tint on the windows.

Initially the charcoal vinyl was meant to be a candy red, but they don’t stock the colour that I was after anymore. They sent out a red vinyl with a pink glitter through it… I thought it looked good until I took it out into the sun… it turned PINK so I decided against using that colour!! Instead I stuck with the charcoal grey to tie in the theme with the Rays Engineering Volk Racing rims.

I’ve spent the whole week detailing the inside and outside of the car… but not having a garage to store it in made things hard. The ignition system had a relay switch integrated so you can turn on the sound system without having the keys in the car. *safety precaution for the show*

This young grasshopper has definitely had enough of the “wax on… wax off” experience getting the car ready for the show…
