Smile MY Detailed IB/B MC **FIXED**

Hello there mini2ers

Just here to post a couple of before and a couple of after pics from this weekend. Had my MINI detailed with scott at Obsessive Car Detailing and she looks amazing I recommend anyone take their MINI

I would have done it myself but I dont have the time at the moment, and I am also short of a PC for removing the unwanted swirls! Iv got a couple more pics on my phone, which I will upload soon as I have downloaded from my phone! Credit to scott for his hardwork, and also these pictures he took during working on it

..::Before::..






..:: After ::..






Isnt she beautiful?

Iv just had the same problem, even though the URL's are correct. Rick click the little red cross thing and click "show picture" then it should work if you do it a couple of times.

Absolutely no idea why they arent working properly, all URL's are fine, when I get home from work if they still arent working then I will resize them to the limit for mini2.com and attrach them rather than linking

Firefox users don't even see the "little red cross thing"

Unless the images are huge, 'Manage Attachments' will downsize them for you.

Thanks in advance for using clickable thumbnails

Nope nothing for me you've exceeded your transfer limit if you paste the URL directly into the browser.

It was acceptable in the 80's

Yeah looks like you sprayed the plastic spray on and forgot to wipe it off.

£150, 11 hours work. The main priority was the swirls, and it is completely swirl free now Was kind of hoping for some positive feed back from mini2ers The engine bay isnt greasy at all, its just very clean. again:

ps sorry about my webspace. Free stuff I hardly ever use. Will move them soon as I get a chance to photobucket or something like that.

Is there anybody out there who likes my MINI?

Shows that I have a long way to go before my engine bay looks that clean. Great looking finish on the after pictures, looks like a new car sat in a showroom.
