Freshly Washed and Waxed - Dialup beware

It was warm yesterday (a cool 55 degrees), so I decided to give my car a long overdue wash + wax. For the last few weeks I'd been almost regretting my color choice, but now that its all clean, I love it once again







And of course, probably one of my favorite styling points of the car -

Looks amazing! I've got a couple questions...
1. What VW rims are those? They look great.
2. Tell me more about that two tone leather....how'd you get them, how much?

Interestingly enough, it's spelled jamb. I was surprised when I found out, just thought I'd share.
Nice car, love the rims. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Haha, my friends been bugging me about the same thing, my doorjams, and engine bay are filthy. I hang my head in shame

Rnwyjim -
Thanks for the compliments, the Rims are off of an Audi TT, the VW center caps fit perfectly, from a mid-90s Jetta GLX.
The leather I bought during a group buy a few months ago (I actually see theres another one going on). They were around 600 + Shipping, and feel fantastic, better than most OEM leather I've felt. My friends and I did the install over 2 weekends, a major pain to do, but well worth it.

Forgot to mention, I used a different wax then I had been using. I was using meguiars, and was kind of unhappy with the shine, and how long it lasted. This time I picked up some mother's california gold, and am much happier (so far) with the results. Plus, there was an unexpected bonus. With the meguiars, if I hit the black rubber bits around the car (front+rear valance, mirrors, or splash guards) while waxing, it would leave a mark, some of which, as you can see, I STILL can't get out. With the mothers, no marks.
