    can do. I've only done harleys/honda shadows/bike's with tons of chrome in the past, but if you're still interested, shoot me a pm!

    Will do, When it becomes mine. Just looking to unswirl a little paint and whatnot to give it that fresh and new feeling without doing the work myself.

    My pleasure buddy! I've said it a million times but I love jbp. Really unique color. Hit me up later this week or next and I'll get a second coat of wax as well as take care of that spot on the driver's side carpet for you too.

    Wow, that looks fantastic. I think I just saw this car a couple days ago... hmmmm.


    Edit... you know... there are a lot of Evo's that have the same fading on the spoiler. You should post up over there.

    Thanks for the tip!

    Now that you mention it, I can't recall a single evo where I haven't thought "wow, that CF looks like ass" lol
    Some of them are worn all the way through the clear even.

    Well, I lied. I ended up spending 2 full days working on a couple cars. Took before pics, but forgot to take after pics. Perhaps after next weekend.

    Just finished a sweeeeeeeet VW r32.

    It had white spray paint overspray on EVERY panel including all the glass and plastic. It looked like it had a months worth of dust on it and the paint felt like 100 grit sandpaper when you ran your fingers over it.

    After 8 or so hours I got 99% of the overspray off and it shines like a mirror.

    Great job sheen -- the pics are awesome. I haven't driven the car yet b/c I'm afraid to get it dirty. Even my wife commented on how good it looked and generally doesn't care about that sort of thing.

    I've got a white 09 wrx sedan, would just like to get a good wax/exterior detail, maybe a quick interior detail as well. Nothing to major, how long do you think it would be to get that in?

    ^Depends on a few things including how often it is exposed to the elements and how you're washing and drying it. I could go 6 months on my daily driven OBP wrx before you'd start seeing minor swirls in the right lighting. With the Porsche, I'll lightly polish it once a year at most.

    I detail cars. Subaru paint is incredibly soft. Great for buffing but horrible for getting scratches and RIDs. In general with proper washing (two bucket method)/drying (quality microfibers/and waxing (quality wax).. you should only have to legitimately polish your car yearly. Buffing takes off clear coat. Is that a bottle of Optimum Hyper Polish I see in the pic of the 350z?
