1st clay/glaze/wax done today

here's my first attempt at claybar and glaze... i've always waxed my cars, but wanted to see if i could get a significantly better result with clay and glaze... i think the extra time is worth it... the shine is much better than with just wax:

Personally this is one of the best colors i think. Also it makes it even better looking de-badged, By the way how come no one removes the honda logo from the rear? Is it on there for good or something?

I suppose so as long as you aren't causing unnecessary danger to others. I'm sure you know just how strongly I feel about a mod this unsafe. That's it, I've said it.. not going any further as this isn't the topic this thread was started on.

there are two holes in the trunk, the only other option is the JDM badges that cover the holes up
