[drewski59]

Looks like a classic with a real pricey paint job.



Where's the rest of the car??

 

[imported_guapsnaman]

That's really nice...NOW TELL ME YOUR SECRET!!

 

[C. Charles Hahn]

Wow.... what kind of car is that?

 

[Rolla]

Nice! Is it a Rolls Royce?

 

[z400]

Sadly, these are the only pictures I have of the car. I didn't detail it, I wish!



It's an old rolls of some sort...Had a new paint job that was pretty much flaw less! The guy said it didn't have any wax on it and gets washed every week. As you can see in the first picture, theres some swirls.



But man, what a shine!!! The Carrera GT (same owner as the rolls) was getting its bumper repainted.

Why the heck is a Carrera GT getting its bumper repainted?!

 

[z400]

He was getting it repainted because a rock had hit his back bumper and went straight down to the plastic.



He didnt get the whole bumper repainted, just this section. The guys were using some special kind of paint. They just applied it with a small hobby air brush, tried it with a UV light, buffed, applied clear and done! Couldn't even tell!



here's more pics:



The setup:

All done! Couldn't tell. The guy said he ran out of clear so he's going to come back and do it again.

 

[imported_Axe]

[JeffM]

Where can i find someone to fix scratches like that??????



I have a bad one about 3 inches long, drives me crazy

 

[SilverLexus]

Photographing Rolls Royce black paint is like cheating.

 

[2000firebird]

wooo i wanna see more of the GT

 

[roughrider]

wooo i wanna see more of the GT

Yeah, screw the Rolls, lets see more of the GT.

MAN those are some sexy cars. The paint on the Rolls is simply unbelievable, but I question the location of the painting hobby brush or not. If I owned those two cars neither one would EVER be parked on the street.
