as much as i dislike red cars this is starting to grow on me

wheel fitment look spot on , make sure you get the fronts rolled and you can lower it even more

Finally in for paint 3rd time lucky as the first 2 times it went in we had power cuts grrr but 3rd times the charm all done two coats so red 1 gold pearl and 5 coats of lacquer such a nice deep shine but that's only half the battle now it's wet sanding time

No offence, but why go through all that work, yet not strip it properly.

The roof areal takes about 10mins to get out, and the quarter glasses not much longer.

Because it snowballed it only went in for a few dents removal and mop.
Rear quarters have been wired and I didn't want to risk damaging head lining to remove arial.

Right a lot has been done they have done the first stage of wet sanding and mopping.
They still need to do a second stage yet so ignor marks in paint as it's only had a g6.
But a lot of details have been pained black front rear badges and wing mirrors.
And you can see the gold pearl in the bonnet shot it's looking awsome bring on a weeks time when I get it back

Long time since I've put up a post, but it means I've been busy

the car is finally back from paint and looking awesome.
Even if it did go back in the booth at 1am due to a small blemish in the lacquer 12hrs before I was due to collect it

Once I got it back I could get all the interior professionally detailed to remove all body shop dirt lol

As you can see in pics I got myself some oe darker tint rear lights and went black on the wing mirrors and smoked on the fogs and mirror indicators.

Also got some shiny bits under the bonnet but you going to have to wait for me to detail under there before I get some picks lol
