Nice job!
I dig that black grill. Did you paint it or did you/she buy it that way?

Dj, looks very nice! I like the de-badged rear end on that MB.
Hey, know you really know why the g/f gave you the Orbital Buffer before your birthday! The women in our lives are very-very smart!

Nicely done! Black is a workout. I like the Benzs sporty look blacked out and no badges. You did a super job with the wheels... those are tough. I had a similar set on my BMW and it took me hours to clean those babies!

Hi DJ, Nice job on the black, I had 1 black truck and let me tell you never again will i buy black.
On a more serious note did you get compensated before the job or after or are you just a nice guy and got a rain check
Married for 20 years and I'm just wondering if anything has changed or are we all in this vicious game together. Please answer yes or I'll feel like a fool

Now you need to teach her that putting her purse down on the rear deck while she searches through it is a NO-NO!

lol, its not from that.
we both think that its from one o those snow scraper/brush things from cleaning the snow off the car.
but earlier that day she was washing her car, and i showed her how to do the 2 bucket method, and to clean from top to bottom, and not to miss washing parts of the car, so hopefully now it will look like this for a long time
