With the way theMAG maintains this black beauty, I doubt this would happen!

Maggie's taken a liking for the bare bottom (look) of the Swift ..

Still waiting for pics pal. Whats the status?

zaks · 16th July 2009, 11:26

A really well cared for car, it is lucky more than you!

theMAG · 16th July 2009, 11:43

Sorry gents - last weekend was a goner; I barely had time to take a bath. I promise I will take pics this weekend and post them.

srikant · 17th July 2009, 13:11

If I remember right, I was charged ~ Rs. 1300 for the job, for my Swift.

Sai Colorium - JP Nagar/Sarakki.

Without doubt!

OK, some pics taken today, including debadge. Car is not as clean as she normally would be, due to an annoying renovation going on in a neighboring house.

Gandhi · 19th July 2009, 17:11

Awesome dude. What a beauty she is. The pictures speak for themselves how deep you love her. Great job.

greenhorn · 19th July 2009, 17:31

if this is what she looks like 'not clean' I wonder what it would be like when clean !

gpa · 19th July 2009, 22:51

theMAG,

Absolutely brilliant pics! Love the pic of the rear end that so glossy after the debadge. I thought Sai Colorium did only accident repairs and painting jobs and didn't know they were into detailing.

Just curious, why did you leave that K&N sticker on when you removed everything else?

Like greenhorn, I too wonder what the car will look like when fully clean. Thanks for uploading the pics and making us drool.

Cheers,
gpa

Oh my god, I am truly jealous. Damn I need to rush to wash my car. Thats is absolutely beautiful, how can you make it cleaner?

srikant · 20th July 2009, 21:43

She surely looks gorgeous and a treat to eyes. But was that price of 1300 inclusive of all those minor touch up you mentioned and polishing?

roadie_swift · 20th July 2009, 23:23

Maan, that's one awsome looking car - Guess she was an Aphrodite to begin with, and you have made her into a Venus with your love!!

Here's wishing you loads of fun with your Black Beauty!!
