Wetsanded Malibu, Ford GT LeMans edition, Candy SRT8 *56K* NO

[EBPcivicsi]

Most of these cars were done for the DUB show a few weeks back. It was my biggest two weeks ever, but I didn’t have time to take pics of every car�I tried to get the highlights.



First up was a Malibu that was painted by a local body shop. They sanded it (unfortunately) and I buffed it out/detailed it. There were horrible sanding marks, finger marks, DA pig tails, etc. I did what I could…

This Ford GT was a real challenge. The paint was in very good condition, but detailing the engine was a nightmare—my hands are still healing.



After the detail, we installed paint protection film.

This Charger was quite an ordeal. I received the car at 7p on Friday evening (fresh from the booth) and it had to leave my shop by noon on Saturday. Did I mention that I also had to do 7 wash and waxes by noon on Saturday? Yeah, I buffed all night and basically slept at the shop. Don’t worry�I charged “emergency fees.�



The car is crazy, supercharged, full custom interior, etc.



The was after about 14 hours of work.

The interior was filthy, the glass had to be polished, and there was compound in *every* crack and crevice.



She swept her category as well.

I also did this Lambo, but this is the only pic that you guys will be interested in.

[David703]

great job!!! That malibu was um..turned out fantastic!!

 

[Diesel1]

Amazing work! I don't those DUNKS or whatever they call those hoopties. I can't see dumping all that money into a POS car and then spend 10K in wheels and body work to make them fit.



To each his own I guess.



Everything came out great!

 

[P1et]

Very very very nice! Oh, and a job well done on the cars too!

 

[mblgjr]

They all look outstanding!



As a side note; the Ford GT is actually a Heritage Edition. I've drooled over one for many hours...

 

[Autofan]

Holy crap that Malibu is stunning your work is unbeleivable!

I agree they look so stupid IMO and everyone I see they throw some 30" wheels on them but never bother to upgrade the brakes. He was still running drums in the Malibu.

 

[kleraudio]

Very good work man! I hope to achieve those results one day!
