Guy came to me wanting to fix his hood but it had severe clear coat failure. He got it painted and waited two months and brought it back to me since the shop didn't do a great job buffing it. (severe marring, wet sanding marks, and swirling) He also wanted to clear up the head lights before spending more money on some new ones. Turned out great and about 90% corrected. The hood was the worst out of all of it but it turned out alright.
