    Picked the car up from the detailer's today. Xpel PPF on the whole of the front bumper and headlights and Gyeon ceramic coating on the rest of the paintwork together with coatings on the glass, complete wheels, brake calipers, hood and seats. Well chuffed with the end result. I have been using the same detailer for the last 3 years and his work is superb.
