Default Detailed Mark III Supra

Got a chance to do a friend's car for next to nothing so that my work could get some views by other people and hopefully some business. Car is a Mark III supra. He has a few things done to it, including an upgraded ct-26 turbo. It should trap around 117mph or so in the 1/4 mile. Anyways, it was originally a red car and had a repaint done a few years ago to black with blue pearl. Well he was busy putting the engine together and a few other things and never really took care of the exterior. I offered my services in return for some word of mouth advertising. Only worked on exterior paint and put in about 7 hours with a few breaks here and there. Used a LC CCS orange and white pads, meguiars #83, 3m finesse it II, mother's clay bar, off brand rotary, and Zaino Z2 (need to order some Z5 for these black cars!). Here are the pics in a somewhat chronological order.

Like a Mirror... I may be gettin a hold of you after the T/A goes back to the paint place for them to fix there Runs and a few fkd up spots... i think it may need a good wet sand and polish... i used to detail when i was in highschool but im a little scared of the wetsanding...
