    Got ready for the Greenwood Car Show next week. Stripped the wax, clay bar, three coats of wax, set with 5-minute detailer, cleaned the engine bay, polished all bright work with wadding compound, leather conditioned, carpets cleaned, all interior surfaces treated, rims hand cleaned and hand waxed. Now sitting under a car cover until next Saturday morning.

    Also discovered that my Volant is missing one of its screws (grrrr) need to find a suitable replacement before the show as it looks like ass without it.

    Got my fenders rolled only to find out the clowns who did it didn't put my CTS-V caliper back on correctly and left every single lug finger tight. I had a grinding/dragging noise coming from the right rear.

    Lifted her up got the caliper and Squash brackets mounted correctly and torqued down the lugs.

    Everything all good now. Hard to find people who know what they're doing.
