My buddy said he would go ahead and start painting the car today when I'm at work so we can have the car ready for Sat.

And for anyone asking yes the doors were sanded down to the fiberglass so nothing was on the doors to make this **** start peelings.

I sanded down everything to it's bare state.



Hell... I will try a motor to motor run with my Nitrous tune. You know I'm game for it.



This will never be settled with us two ... We have to much fun with it.. As soon as one beats the others its on again. hahah

Like I said Josh your next after him
Im next huh lmao i think u know better. You know what u would have to do to beat me and ur not going to do it lol

Its all in the details, lots of gentle wet sanding and someone that really knows what they are doing polishing.. That car is going to look like a different car when you are done. It was in really bad shape before.

Hey do you think you could get me an estimate on doing the roof of my Camaro?

And I don't mind doing the prep work, or final sanding, I just need some paint and clear laid down, oh and I have no clue what I am doing with a high speed polisher either so I would want someone experienced to do that.

You should have shaved the door handles and put push buttons on the bottom of the door trim that you hit with your toe

Can't wait to see this thing buffed, waxed, and in person
