Do the wetsanding on the headlights and tell me how that goes. That is a clean car once all washed up. I like the carbon fiber on it…looks nice and pretty hahaha

why is it in your tub lol?

Nice on the head lights they look great. What kind of polishing wheel did you use? I have a makita buffer with a compound pad’s and polishing pads.

I have always thought that doing the charcoal gray two tone interior would look good!!! but I would probably go the lazy way and leave my gray dash and use the charcoal pieces

mellowness65 · January 25, 2009, 7:38am

They were in the tub b/c it was cold as bawlz outside so I sprayed them w/ plane stripper and left them there so it wouldn’t take foreverrr. As far as the buffer it was just a regular bench grinder type thing with a buffing wheel on it. I did the gray w/ dc pieces for a while, but I like the dark dash mo betta

clean car as always mellow. I love the KY blue on your car.

mellowness65 · February 2, 2009, 11:29am

KY is FTW for sure:)
With the bad economy people are trying to make cash, selling badass parts for cheap. As a result the blue car is becoming faster…err the parts are here anyway :roll:

I’ll have matching front and rear powdered calipers and spindles when I’m done, actually most of the front suspension will be done too. I’ll have a more extensively powdercoated underside than most 4x4 guys :lol:
