[SilverLexus]

Awesome! :bow



That "during" shot tells the story...

Amazing work. I'm sure you just added thousands to the value of that car.

 

[gav'spurplez]

wow, :bounce



let me ask you how much you charged to make that car look llike new

 

[jamesaurus]

Awesome work. Those hood pics were saved to my HD.

 

[MongooseGA]

Holy ****.



Yeah, I'm gonna have to get together with you sometime and work on wetsanding/rotary usage.

 

[imported_guapsnaman]

wow...just wow.



Betcha made a fortune off of that. It deserves a tip larger than the actual price.

Haha you guys are gonna just scoff at what I charged him. Since he was a co-worker of mine and I reeeaally wanted to bring back the shine I only charged him $130. I know waaaay under priced specially since two of my pads are dead and over 8 hours went into the car! I guess I should have charged around at least $200? I dunno, I guess Im too nice to charge people what I actually deserve since I dont want to hurt their pocket books too bad.

Pics 2 and 4 you can see where I had to wetsand the paint transfer area from his two collision. After wet-sanding and buffing both came out. The only thing I counldny do anything about is the rear bumper where that white paint is, I strip of paint was missing from the car. SO no brainer I couldnt wet sand and polish to remove whats not there. Not too bad for my first time.

[countrysquire]

So which side of the hood was the "before"? Seriously, outstanding work! :up :up :up

 

[ericsscion]

[Gen2]

Holy S**T, that is one hell of a transformation. :xyxthumbs :xyxthumbs Great job.:bow

 

[imported_iceberg]

Unbelieveable. Just plain unbelieveable.



Awesome work. :bow

 

[beastie]

That is pure talent! Great work!

 

[01bluecls]

Wow, everyone comments are making blush. I truely appreciate everyone kind words!! One things is for sure is that I made the owner PROMISE to start taking better care of it from now on.

 

[01bluecls]

I would love to top the Collinite IW845 that I have on there now with P21S or Souveran. Maybe in a month when I give a quick detail/cleanup I will use Souveran. Hopefully he wont induce too many more swirls and defects as the paint is prolly gettin thin.

 

[Crazy Quattro]

wow one of the best bragging threads ever! Im very impressed.

 

[01bluecls]

Still deciding whether to enter it into April's contest or not?? I think I may just pass this month.

Great job!



Your work is one fo the most amazing restorations that i personally have ever seen on this forum. With all the work that has been put into the detail coupled together with the amazing pictures of the process,,,,,,WHY WOULD YOU NOT ENTER THE CONTEST!



Just my humble opinion.

 

[01bluecls]

Well, if others think I should. I just would feel bad if I happen to win again for two months in a row. Im not assuming that I will automatically win over the other entries but I guess I would feel bad if I did. Maybe im just being really modest. If Mods want to or can, they can feel free to move this thread over to the Detail Contest section.
