Nice job and clay barred too! must have taken some time but looks great especially considering 80k miles. Don’t forget to check torque setting in a week or two 👍

Looks good but next time add a spray on fallout remover to your regime. Wheels get a lot of fallout that even the clay bar does not remove.
