Paint Correction done, lots of pictures!
I want to start off by saying a huge THANK YOU to slickooz a member here who detailed my TL. It took him 2 full days to do the entire car. Just amazing work, and I wanted to share with you guys what was done. Gary can chime in and post what was used on my car as I forgot what type of compound, wax, sealer, wheel cleaner ect was used. Enjoy the pictures, all comments welcomed. 
Started with the wheels, spray action breaking down all the crap on the wheels.
The TL getting a real bubble bath
After that a 2 bucket hand wash process.
After blow drying, we clayed the car and got it ready for polishing, Tape it up baby!
Next we decided to clean up those calipers, Wheels off.
Look at the swirls, it's hard to see on white but my car was loaded. Some before and after shots. BEFORE
After
Time to clean up that exhaust and wheels. Wax, clay, seal and polish.
Some Finished shots taken on Sunday once the job was done.
Parked inside my job to show how glossy the paint looks
Outside day light shots
Some of his products he brought to finish my car
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING!

. If you haven't already, I recommend you also try the Meguiar's Ultimate compound. Show car, wet paint like finish I promise, it's no secret to why my car is always clean lol. I polish/wax mines whenever I get the chance to.

I was looking at the bottle and saying to myself that, that's got to be it lol. I use mostly Meguiar's products since buying their Dual action buffer and that wax right there is amazing .

I polish/wax mines whenever I get the chance to.

Don't mean to thread jack or anything but...
Is that the direction the rotors supposed to go?
I bought my rotors from someone on the forum, and I finally installed them... But mine are reversed from what I see you have.
And after doing a quick search I noticed there's a handful of 3Gers who have it your way--and some my way.
Looking at other cars I notice the slots go the opposite way.
And on topic:
That's some great detailing. I always was fond of your car!

Looks amazing!!! Now THATS a detail job!!! At first I thought your car was for sure a 07 or 08 Type S with the chrome grill and all the other accents including the mirrors, but then I saw the older style tail lights. Looks like you got a lot of work into that car! Nice job!!!
Cool cat you got there, out there chillin with you by the car :-)
