You too, huh? When I picked up my Santa Fe last Saturday it rained like it never rains here and it did it for HOURS.
Hopefully yours won't need to be towed to the dealer within the next seven days like mine. Best of luck to you.

I'm just cleaning up the car now. It's washed, now needs polish and then I'll get to the pics.
This thing takes longer to clean than my TSX. I was so used to the lines and panels and everything. And now I have to get up on a ladder to clean the roof.

Ok, here are some pics. This is just after a wash and a coat of Zaino ZPC. I'm applying polish now and still have to do the interior. I didn't really want to do all this today, but being that fall weather is quickly approaching, I need to get a coat of protection on before the inevitable rain, sleet, and snow attack it.

The front is growing on me a little bit. I guess I'm getting desensitized to the large beak.

My dealer doesn't tag their cars but my Santa Fe was a dealer trade and the dealer it came from did badge it. Thankfully it was a vinyl badge and it gave up after just ten seconds of persuasion from the hairdryer. I didn't even need dental floss; once the glue softened I picked up an edge and it came right off. Some isopropyl alcohol took care of the little residue that remained.
