Default Detoxx move and detail

Almost done with my move back to Michigan. Before I had the car transported my friend owns a detail shop and did a badass job on it. Full paint correction and ceramic coating. Also added a clear bra on the front bumper and a Alpine in-dash headunit.

It is lowered. It was lower but raised it a little so the M&H's would fit and not rub when it squats. Gotta be able to hook 900rwhp. These pics were taken after the car was jacked up though so the suspension wasn't settled yet. Here's a couple with the suspension settled.

Great looking car! Some day I'll own one. maybe even the same color so my Skylark matches.


On a side note, I've never heard of ceramic coating the paint. That must be the white wash that is going on in the one picture? Could you visibly see the difference before and after?

Naw the white stuff is just a soap they use before polishing the car. It's a long process but the actual coating is applied last and a few times. Even dried with a heat lamp. It's a very noticeable difference. Also has a 5 year warranty and comes with a kit of cleaning products. Water hits the paint and it just rolls off. It's worth every penny cause I was tired of cleaning it often and waxing. He also coated the wheels so I don't have to worry about brake dust.
