Troy/Chad/2gHiBoost/Sal: I actually snapped these pictures myself so that means a lot that you appreciated them... Everything about taking pictures (finding the time to do it mid job / learning how to take quality pictures) has been my Achilles heel so it's nice to hear that I am making progress... It has taken a bit of effort to get the pictures to represent what the paintwork actually looks like in person

Jason,

That looks fantabulous! Your yard looks great too! :dblthumb2:

Thanks Rick... Been giving it some love for the past 2 years!

Excellent job as always, I have not seen your correction work posted in a while so thanks for taking the time to put this together. Also, kudos to the owner for enjoying this vehicle for 40K miles.

Tropicare...there is a brand I have not heard mentioned in some time. I found their Citrus wash was a cost effective alternative to P21S Total Auto Wash but never ventured any further into the product line. I may have to give them a second look, I believe they are now doing business as Showroom FX.

Before I compliment you, I have to ask. Is that a bullet hole in the first three pictures?

A great turn around on a badly treated car. Looks really good. And It's nice to see someone that actually DRIVES their Ferrari. And it's not just another damned garage queen.

A question (bullet hole?) and a point I intended to make. Cars should be driven. Just take care of them when you are done.

Thanks Devo... Nice to know that after taking such a long hiatus from posting my work some still remember me.

Yes, you are correct, my bad Showroom FX is the name they are now doing business under... I am also a very bid fan of their waffle weave drying towels

Bullet holes, now that is awesome (I mean this with no sarcasm as it really made me chuckle). I am sure living in the MetroDetroit area one may expect that. The holes are from where I removed the "Ferrari" badge.

Thanks for looking and taking the time to comment, and yes, I agree nice to see a vehicle like this driven.
