The car was already pretty clean when it was dropped off.

Condition of the paint after removing iron contaminates and being clayed.

Tail lights cleaned up nice also.

Wasn’t able to get any sun shots because I finished late in the day.

Those tires need more meat! Car looks good. Really impressed by the tail light 50/50
 
I love those NSXs, even today its still a beautiful modern looking car.

That wheel and tire combination really isn't doing the car justice. Especially in the front the excessively low profile tires just kind of make everything look weird. With a more appropriate tire front and rear it would fill up more of the wheel wells and give it more of a performance look.
I would really be interested to hear more about the products and machines used for the correction and rest of the detail in general.
 
+1 on the lights, it sure got my attention:dblthumb2:
Car came out great, I just hate when we can't get some good after shots like the truck I just did, the swirls were there and removed but for the life of me I couldn't get the shots I wanted due to the color of the truck and I had some good lights.

But he did get some good shots but I'm sure he wanted to show more.

GREAT WORK!

A slight drop would be nice but the OZ Superleggera wheel looks great on the 1st gen NSX compared to the stock 16's, boring wheels came on the car stock IMO.

Once again, great job on the car!

Great job. That thing is dripping wett.

That car was so far ahead of it's time. Really, the last time Acura was ahead of Lexus in design, IMO.
 
Gorgeous!

Be honest... did you think about stealing the car, driving to Mexico and changing your name? I think I would have considered it :)
