With respect to being sore and using the PC, you could avoid both by using less Zaino. To give you an idea, I can easily apply 2 coats of Zaino on my TSX w/ less than 1 oz. I usually mix 1 oz and end up w/ about .2 oz. The thinner amt you lay down, the easier it is to get off.
To make the Zaino spread better, I spritz the applicator pad with some Z6 quick detailer. The Z2 or Z5 should be put on so thin that you can barely see the haze. If the haze is very obviously visible, you've used way too much and it becomes a big PITA to remove.
Still, your hardwork speaks for itself. The car looks FANTASTIC.

LOL @ missing the spot with the tire shine!

The screws are underneath the plate holder itself. You will need a socket set or at least the correct socket to get those off.

I started washing the car around 5:30 pm on Saturday night and didn't finish wiping off the first coat until 10pm, by then I gave up because the bugs started landing on my car and was bugging the crap out of me (that's what sucks about living in the country I guess) and then I started back up on the second coat around 9:00am the next day and finished up by 11am. This was my first time so thats probably why it took so damn long, I clayed the car too before applying the polish.

A friend of mine did this the next day after he got rolled and took the plate off at the next building over from the PD... lol

yeah, I live in CA too. There's so many cars here that don't have front plates, esp the higher end cars. For me, as long as a ticket isn't a moving violation, I really don't care.

Around my city they just added a bunch of those damn red light cameras, so they've been cracking down on people with no front license plates like crazy. I agree that it doesn't look as good with it on, but I put mine on because I just don't wanna give the cops any reason to unnecessarily pull me over. There are a lot of cops around a lot of the bars we hit on the weekends and they like to look for young people to pull over all the time.

yeah I better leave it on, in my city cops don't have anything better to do! Since I'm young and tend to look even younger (I get carded all the damn time) and not white, they already have enough reasons to pull me over in my neck of the woods.
