Looks great. Sometimes I miss my old LS1 SS.

Nice numbers. My old LS1 SS made 405 at the wheels and was lots of fun to drive.

Oh and the car looks very nice (cute kid too!).

I typically pick up M205 from Advance Auto using coupon codes online. Polishing pads I generally get from Autogeek.

For future reference, Mequiar's M205 with an orange pad is a great one-step for G8 paint.

Fantastic work!

Love, love, love, 427 Convertibles. They are such great looking cars.

Nice. Cheap (relatively) speed! I miss mine periodically, but on to bigger and better things.

Wire wheel/brush the wheels to remove the rust, then prime and paint. As long as the wheels aren't significantly pitted, bubbled, or otherwise damaged by the rust, you should be fine. By painting you prevent oxygen and moisture from reaching the metal and restarting the oxidation process. Note...

Is the name of the paint actually "Metallica" silver (or is it just "metallic silver")? I would imagine the band Metallica would take issue with Subaru using their name as a paint color...

2009 G8 GXP - 40K 2013 Equinox - 15K Camaro had 42K on it when I sold it in 2013.

Being near the upper limit of that spectrum, I find that products that appeal to me are marketed significantly differently than those that appeal to the lower end of the scale. ;)

Really unfortunate. Hopefully the damaged cars can be salvaged.

I understand that when there is a need, someone is going to step in to fill that need. But it's "painful" to think of all those cars that are being subjected to dirty towels, and the inevitable damage to the paint, over and over again.

Love the ZR1. Exactly the color combo I would go for!

Great work! As I think I've said in another thread you posted, I've had good results with Hyper Polish and orange pads as well (although I still don't like the spray bottle...). The 'before' interior shots made me flinch; my G8 is put away for the winter but it still made me want to go home and...

Notice, yes. Bother me, no. I've got other things to worry about than what another person's car looks like.

What a great color. Good job! On the subject of winter, the G8 gets put away once the snow/salt hits (I have another beater for that). Summer tires are evil enough in freezing temperatures, let alone snow. It's also a whole lot easier to keep a car nice if it's not being driven during the...

Typically pretty long. When I buy a car I do it because I really like the car and want to keep it a long time; or until I find something I like better! :)

Have to say I completely disagree, but as they say, different strokes for different folks. I will say that pictures don't do these cars justice. Especially for the interior. I've been in a couple of them and prior to that I was still concerned over the plastic look of some of the interior bits...
