Just thought I would share:

My detailer posted it up on bimmerforums so here's his post. The car looks great and I'm ashamed it got so bad. I was in the hospital for a month after wrecking my bike and my roomates hit it with sprinklers and it had a layer of dirt on it. Anyway, if anyone is interested in contacting him you can PM me.

I was really excited to detail this car. This is my first time working with Fiberglass and my First Corvette!!!

This Owner contacted me Via Local Car forum. Has needed alot of TLC. Car had DEEP swirl. I gave this car my all and it REALLY tired me out. The car had BAD waterspots and had some damaged clear.

Sorry, I'll try and get some full sun pics. The clearcoat on vettes is VERY hard so it's hard to cut, so there still is some swirls. I didn't notice until later because I picked it up in the evening. I left my camera at my buddies and I gotta go pick it up so I won't have better pics until next week.

BTW, screw having a black car.

Mercedes, BMW's and GM's Vette are very hard, so when I saw you detailers list of products I already figured he didn't get them all out. It does look good. If you really want to see how he did take some full strength Isopropyl Alcohol and wipe it down

They aren't all out. Actually I was disappointed when I saw it in the sun because it looks so good in not direct sunlight. I'll get pics when I can.
