Looks fantastic. I'd hire you in a moment to do my SS and my GN.

As a side note, the TPI motor still has the best looking fuel injection system since 1950's-era Rochester setup.

And I would trade my GN straight=up for a clean C4 like that one!

thanks....i dont think you would want this one...guy has an issue with a rough idle and it cutting out when you give it 3/4 to full throttle...he took it to a shop and they said it was his O2 sensor which was $200...they were wrong cuz it is still runnin like ****

Sounds like fuel pump or filter, or possibly a bad coil.

way off lol....middle 40's single guy with a mullet and he is a truck driver who lives in a motel

it is very nice during the fall...great temps with no humidity and best of all no snow yet

yeah the color has something to be desired.

i put 2 coats of leather conditioner on and it just ate it up...they are beyond any help.

DP 08 GXP, nice work!

Any tips/steps on dealing with the swirls?

Two bucket wash, microfibers only. Waffle weave microfiber to dry. The idea is to minimize contact with the paint when not working with a pad and a polish.

hey he asked me lol....but yeah he nailed it on the head with his statement...avoid car washes that arent touchless also and even if you go through a touchless you will still have dirt left on the car so dont dry it or you will put swirls in the paint....once the paint is fixed its better to keep your hands off unless you are going the proper washing method because you will destroy th work you put into it......along with the 2 bucket getting a grit gaurd is also key when hand washing your car. if you want to get rid of them invest in a buffer and some good polishing products.....i go with Adam's but there are also some other good products out there which im sure Nacho can add a bit more to.

thanks Mike!
