After seeing my car, a friend decided to gave his 4runner a TLC of detailing.

Condition of his beast:
Purchased new 6 months ago and never washed since the delivery.

He used following:

1. Meguiars Gold Class Car Wash
2. Meguiars Cleaner Wax - with orbital
3. Meguiars #26 Yellow Wax - Paste (hand applied)

Results was outstanding (pictures doesn't do justice):



Because of FL Sun, he had to use my garage...


My poor beast had to sit out on the driveway for few hours




You guys didn't really think that I would post just 4runner pictures.. did you?

Enjoy

Wow, that is an impressive turnaround. I hate to dissapoint your freind but no matter how much wax he applies, he is not going to turn his 4 runner into the Beast .

You should have posted some pictures of his 4runner before he detailed it so we could have some basis for comparison.

Looks great though...and of course your beast does too.

Jason - yes they are tinted. Lighter on four doors and darker on rear window. They turned out great.

RareM5,
I think you're missing something on your car?
could it be the REAR DIFFUSER?
it's calling your name ...
