I use Meguiars Ultimate wash for soap, and their line of Ultimate Liquid Wax for protection finish. I pressure washed head to toe, then applied foam cannon 95% soap with brand new micro fiber mits. Blow dried with a corded blower 210mph blow speed. Finished drying with two big Chemical Guys microfiber towels, then applied heavy Ultimate Liquid Wax (as it is the first coat).

Removed wax with new microfiber towels, and that's where it stands
Very nice. Hard to go wrong with Meguiars. Widely available and produces very nice results. The LE looks amazing. Great job.

I would highly recommend doing a full decontamination as when my PPF guys were doing their prep, they found a lot of iron imbedded on the paint. They said it was one of the worst they've seen from a new car but overall my paint was free of defects as well too.

Yep, I always do a full chemical and mechanical decontamination before any protection application. It’s well worth the effort, IMO.

These do not hold a candle to the original ITR.
In much the same way as the apple i'm eating now doesnt compare to the orange I had for lunch.... ?

Ugh I would’ve shot someone if they installed that front plate mount!
You'll need an ICBM aimed at Swindon then ?

And apologies for the quality of the pic but surprisingly we also get rear console vents. Perhaps to make up for the front drilled bumper?

Loving my LE so much!! It's really insane how much attention it gets on the road. Feels like driving a bright orange Lambo ?. People constantly stop me at lights and ask about the car. One of the reasons I went with the tints.

I went with 20% Ceramic tint. I got the whole front end PPF'd but did not get the windshield done. Also had the rear wheel side flares done.
