Nice work as usual!

Small detail, car has cross plane, not flat (your description at the beginning)

Nice work on that good looking GT-500. So all of those imperfections (or most of them) came from the factory?

Thanks everyone!

black92: Man! So tempting!!! (then to add to this, I had a quote to give on a H/C/I ZO6-sounded sick!)

specracer: Thank you! Corrected!


I'm going to say 50/50 on the defects. Factory but, most likely, a bigger % from poor dealer prep.

One problem, now it looks too good to drive. As a matter of fact get it back inside before any dust can get on it. The car is stunning sir, great job as usual.

I can't believe all of the minor scratches with so few miles and age. Unreal.

Your work is amazing. Very well done!

That's makes sense. Crappy, though, being it's basically a new car.
