Red face Photoshop Request

Can anybody photoshop this wheel in a white pearl TL, I'm thinking about trading in my black TL? I'm tired of trying to keep up with it, no matter what I do the swirl marks still come back and I'm going nuts over it. Don't get me wrong I love the color but my sanity is worth more. I still don't know how much it would cost me but it might be what I need to do, at this point it's just an idea we'll see what happens. I wonder if I'm the only one that feels like this?

VINI: Those rims will look sweet on a WDP TL as they do on your NBP right now. I have similiar color rims on my NBP.

Swirl marks are a pain if you don't take the right steps to prevent them. What are the method/steps you use to wash & dry your car? Most swirl marks come from washing & drying your car.

I was thinking about doing the same of trading in my NBP for a WDP w/ black interior after some moron backed into my hood & bumper. Well I just picked up my car from the shop & now know that I want to keep my car. I learned to prevent swirl marks & avoid static from attracting dust on my black car. Good luck with your chioce becuase there's no wrong decision in keeping your car or trading it in.

I wash the car at home, cause the towels they were using at the car wash was making it worse. I also just bought some 3M products that I'm gonna try out and see what happens. By the way how do you avoid static from attracting dust to your car?

I use this QUICK SHINE DETAILER to avoid static & have been using the same 1 gallon size for the past year. I use it after washing the car when it's dry to get rid of any waterspots & give the paint a shine.

I always rinse my wash mitt before dipping it back in the soap bucket to get rid of dirt. I use quality microfibre towels to dry & wipe my car down. They have several uses to detail your car & are safe on the paint if used & maintained right.

I know the 3M swirl remover is good, but you might need 2 reapply depending on the first outcome. Then, follow up with a sealant or wax that you prefer. I hope it works out. Good luck!

Amen to that! I had a black MDX, you had to work for 2-3 days to make it look good, and as soon as you drove it, the dirt was back...


Black wheels on the WDP look hot....Get'm...I have similar wheels on mine with graphite color, love the contrast
