Note how although the orange peel is now fairly evident (it wasn't before the detail), the shine more than makes up for it.

I thought that white pole was a sanded/primered area.. I almost crapped myself.

Looks pretty good for a box.

Edit: now why didn't you do anything about those wheel wells?

Attworth,

Yea, yea, you got me there. Truth be told, that picture was taken after I drove the car about 25 miles home after the detail. Notice the salt spray on the sides? The wheel wells were actually done!

I thought those were scratches/pits... That explains a lot though.
