Default Here she is!!!!

Ok, here she is! A little wet from rain and still without bowtie because I am waiting to detail and wax her, more than likely after the hurricane, and unfortunately she will be outside for that so no sense in doing it now. So next week she should be all pretty and wearing her bowtie again!

Yeah, maybe I would get that after all of her is re-painted. She still has too many imperfections where she still has factory paint to seal them in with that. Thanks for the info..

You could get the front bumper done since it should be perfect

Thats what I did after my front bumper and hood were replaced when that person backed into me. But the rest of my paint was like 95% perfect already so I took a day refining the paint even further to ultimate shine and eliminating everything else to make it perfect and than applied that stuff to the whole car. It even gave the car more gloss after it settled... Its going on the chrome wheels next spring when there completely clean and re-polished. Its worth the money and you could get 3 to 4 cars out of it too.

If you dont mind going for a drive I can polish the car to perfection and apply the coating for you. I Live in Lancaster PA
