Just to give you an idea on how bad the car was (its been sitting for a few years in FL sun, driven seldomly, never washed, it was literally covered in over spray), here's the in-process pictures my friend took as he did the detail:
O.K., Ray brought me his famous Fobra Saturday. It was in rough shape. First, it was covered top to bottom with white over spray. To complicate it, the over spray had been baking on there for a long time. What happens is as the paint is coming off, it acts like 2000 sand paper and mars the paint. So after that, compounding is necessary. In the end, I win the battle!! Here are some before, during, and afters for your viewing pleasure!
Now this is after the paint was removed..
Now after some buffing...
And the results!!
Soooo much better. :drool:
On the list:
Tune up (spark plugs, wires, etc)
New headlights + 6k HIDs
03 Fogs + yellow bulbs
Spacers for the rear (any size suggestions?)
Head unit, still haven't decided what I want.
