Here's my car at the recent CAD SHOW in Québec. Finished 2nd best skyline and finished 2nd best Nissan. I only the sun would have been there, the car would have look cleaner and others car would have look less clean than they were but ahhh who cares, it's friendly competition hen!? lol

Here’s my own personal set of pictures 12 hours after the CAD SHOW :

On top of everything that was there 3 weeks ago,

I gave 2 coats of Menzerna Finishing glaze with a Wolfgang black applicator;
Another 3 coats of Pinnacle Souveran;
1 coat of Poorboy’s QD+ to remove any dust and give it an incredible slickness!
1 coat of PB Wheel sealant.

I really don’t think it’s possible to make it look wetter than this!

That it, Hope you enjoy it and that it was fun to read!

See ya,

Usually people comment on the 50-50 shot on the paint. I guess you are a wheel guy LOL!

I don't think flying is a good idea because I need a car to move all my stuff around everyone's house.

I have a couples of request right now and I'm very interesting, I think I will be doing a thread in the off-topic marketplace and make an announcement in May or June. But if you wants guys, any body serious about this, can PM me so I can see if there's enought interest to make it worth.

Because let's be honest, I have to take into account my 10 hours drive, the motel and all my food at the restaurant.

well im sure everyone is interested to some point
why dont you put together some kinda pricing point and then we can figure out what we are looking for in regards to how much per person type of deal

break it down to a few different things

X amount per hour for engine bay
X amount per hour for interior
X amount per hour for exterior
X amount per hour for wheels
X amount per hour for high speed polish/buff
X amount per hour for claybar

plus obviously gas/food/shelter would be something we could figure out once we know the basics
