I have 2004 Oxford White Mach 1, which I bought late in 2003. My car is a daily driver and stays outside, which makes it hard to keep clean all the time. I've been entering a few shows lately and doing okay, but my goal is to be the overall winner or Best in Show. My car is mainly stock except for Wheels and tires, exhaust and CAI. I'm looking for edge over the other cars, I would appreciate any help or tips.

Clean and detail every square millimeter of it, inside, outside and even under it to the best of your ability. Remember, when it comes to detailing in general and prepping a car for show or display...

How about posting a picture or two of what you're working on?

Clean stuff that opens or closes in the closed position, in the open position, and in-between. You'll be amazed what you will see, and what you get at if you do that.
Try to make everthing look to the MAX.. "without" changing the way it would normally look if it were brand new and in perfect condition. In other words, if something is supposed to look really shinny (like chrome, paint... Etc) make them shinny to the MAX. If something is supposed to look matte, or stain-like... don't make those things "shinny". It makes them look fake. If something is supposed to be black... make it Jet Black... stuff like that.
Get yourself plenty of good small brushes, plenty of Q-tips and cotton balls... you will need them!
I could go on... and on... and onBoss_429
