Black SS 2 stage paint correction detail

Sorry to say the Jetta is NOT my car. But i'm trying to work to that standard with mine FWIW.

My '89 Supercoupe with a little over 30 coats. Cheers.

A shiny Jetta as a beater?! Wow.... :D

Guitarman, that is probably the best looking Thunderbird I saw! The "all-black" appearance with the addition of the chrome Cobra wheels is just excellent. Incredible...

If my memory serves me correctly, you painted it <strong class='bbc'>all[/b] yourself to black from silver... and also colorsanded it, right?

:bow

<strong class='bbc'>William,

I'm not so sure about that. You've got an awesome car with a killer shine IMO. What mods have you done? [/b]</blockquote>
Hey, Thanks! The mods are only cosmetics. Basically Exterior: body kit, 19" wheels, exhaust all by Brabus. Interior: Brabus steering wheel, Eclipse Head Unit & DVD, Alpine Navigation & TV tuner. Diamond speakers & 3x10" subs. No engine mods and not planning to since I drive so slowwwww ;)

I have my eyes on the new E class coming out fall this year, but unfortunatelly I won't be able to make my move for at least few more years because I decide to buy a house this year. I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but I beleive I saw you posted before that you were also in the market for buying a house. I hope everything has been going very well for you. I first started looking at houses here in L.A. 2-3 years ago and wasn't very serious, and now I''m more serious and looking at them again and WOWWW can't believe the prices have gone up so much!! And even with these rediculous prices the houses are sold FAST. Can't believe it. Oh well, It will be my first time buying a house so I guess I'll just start something small and work my way up in future. :)
 
They just built some 2 bedroom townhouses down the street from work in NJ, I went to look at them during lunch and drove away as I saw a big sign over the sales office model "....starting in the mid 400's......" DAMN! For a townhouse?! Prices went up about 100K or so over the past 3-5 years.........sucks!
 
Hey guys, thought I'd post up another one for ya. Haven't posted a lot since I sold the camaro, lots of stuff going on in life right now. But the show must go on right? Well as I've been busy, pics have been stacking up!

Here is a SS I've done twice before. Been caring for this car for about 4 years I think. Been over a year since the last time I saw it though. Since then, its been through a move and lots of mods, and needed some attention. I was happy to make it look as good as it sounds.

Process:

-Foamed with Dawn
-Dawn wash
-Zaino Claybar (Z18)
-ONR as clay lube
-Mothers Chrome Polish on tips
-Gloss-It Signature Tire Gloss
-Menzerna SIP x2
-PCXP LC orange 5.5"
-IPA wipedown
-Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant
