love it! by far my favourite colour for the aurion <envious> keep it going mate!!

bump it up, attn Aurion owners!!!---> eyelids available!!! jump in quick see first post for current pricing.

Hey Andrew, i would highly recommend autoglym Super Resin Polish as a all in one product... easy to use, and stunning results.. follow it up with AutoGlym Extra gloss protection and be prepared for some serious gloss. ive recently moved away from meguiars waxes, as ive found that Extra Gloss protection simply outlasts, and outshines Meguiars NXT 2.0, Gold class plus, AND M26... and when used after super resin polish, gives the paint a very very glossy/wet look, even on white! plus the EGP has the advantage of not having any cleaners of any kind, so you can effectivly "layer" it, to satisfy your OCD :P still havent found anything which works as well as M205, and Ultimate compound.. so will be sticking with those for paint correction...

Washed, wiped down with isopropyl, applied auto glym super resin polish, and topped with extra gloss protection. All nice and glossy :) Also booked her in for her next big mod :) :)

yeah i did post on the sidebar on this site but yeah.. its all good, wasnt a huge turn out anyway.. and we're trying to sort out a bigger, more organized cruise in the next few months???

well speaking of having it all black.... again not too sure if i like it...

taken it off to get it painted.. still deciding on colour... thinking all black or white...

Colour coded? yeah colour coded any thoughts??

Fitted eyelids after months of procrastination... 50/50 on the look *sigh*

This may be completly stupid, but have you checked that the wheel spanner and/or tool kit are secure? Ive had mine rattle loose a few times and it made an annoying sound inside the car... Just a thought, ignore this post if its the wrong type of sound.

yeah still going ahead, hope to see some people out there! :)

bump retro: autopro innaloo is on scarb beach road, pretty much opposite the greater union cinemas..

Cleaning ritual, is nowhere near as comprehensive as yours, Dave. All i do is wash and then wax, everytime, I have yet to try Gold Class Wax (Carnauba Plus) I use Soft Wash Gel, Gold Class Wash, Ultimate Wash & Wax interchangeably. The car is usually waxed with Deep Crystal® System Carnauba Wax or Ultimate Quik Wax Sometimes the car is polished with Show Car Glaze, i do use a lot of other Meguiar's products and a few Mother's Products, when needed. This is what i will stick with for now: Soft Wash Gel followed by Deep Crystal System Carnauba Wax OR Gold Class Wash followed by Gold Class Wax OR (time restricted) Ultimate Wash & Wax followed by Ultimate Quik WaxFYI: Ultimate Quik Wax is suprisingly very good for a spray wax. So LSP is usually MDCSCW, but i will intermittently use MGCW, MUQW, MNXT, MDCWL, and will later try MoRSW. I'm waiting to try MULW, and METS. you're on a winner there... ultimate quik wax has a permanent place in my weekly washing ritual. ive started using a few autoglym products of late and i must say im very impressed... im starting to work in autoglym super resin polish and auto glym extra gloss protection into my cleaning schedules.... from what ive found so far, the extra gloss protection is so much more resistant and glossier than nxt 2.0.. althou it is harder to remove if not applied correctly... has a very watery texture and is very much a "pure sealant"... which requires at least 1 hour cure time before buffing off... but id say the results are worth it.. something to keep in mind when you look for a LSP next time anyway ;) keep up the updates mate :) love this car

very nice mate, post a cleaning ritual? what LSP are you using? :)

oops, sorry guys it slipped my mind that it was so close to v-day.. im ok to make it later in the week if that works better? wednesday better for you guys? vick, you gonna be in town??? would be great to meet up!

this is definately NOT a aurion only cruise.. its for anyone who waNTS to rock up. toyota or even non toyotas.. as long as you love your car, and are a friendly personality. you are more than welcome :) for you regulars, make the effort to get out to it. will be great tp catch up after the new years.... lets get some confirmed numbers Date: Tuesday 15th Febuary Time: approx 8pm? Place: TBA, somewhere condusive to good photos. names: 1. -DAvo (white aurion) 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. . . . . . . .

another vote for the mb quart speakers.. running their reference series speakers in my aurion and the sound is amazing. (powered by alpine amps) whatever speaker you go for, make sure you get some dynamat sound deadener

yeah im keen.. see this thread... http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=31420

ok well there has been a bit of interest of late regarding a meet up.. and it all just seems a lot of talk so here we go lets organise a meet up/catch up/photoshoot/possibly drive??? as you perthies are aware.. im pretty ******* at organising acctual "cruises" so i think this will be more of a "park/meet/talk/take some piccies and then maybe drive to another location and do it all over again." please register your interest here im thinking the week after next... tues or wed night. ok so lets get the ball rolling! all toyota models welcome and non toyotas as well. its a social thang!! :)
