Gotta love my Accord in the reflection:​

My poor ride got rained on while I was working on the Trailblazer so I decided to add a few pics of the beading waiting for me on my Accord....​

Thanks for looking

Nice job in regards to the Detailing and summary. How many hours invested to get the final product?

Yeah I wish I could have had some sun shots since I actually finished while it was out ( a rarity these days) but of course the one time I finish at a decent hour it is raining
