More defects...

We started to mark off severe holograms with green tape to get a better image of the defects on the car.

As you can see, there is still hologramming in the sun between the green tape, as the entire car was covered with holograms. We only marked the severe ones.

Again you can see the lighter hologramming that exsisted over the car. If we where to tape every hologram, we would have had to tape the whole car.

The final pictures after taping and paint inspection.

Here is one of numerous "nibs" that where all over the side of the car. Because the orange peel was so bad, if they sanded these out, they would have flattened some of the orange peel, which would the area stand out more.

They should have sanded the entire sides, but given the quality of the their sanding work, it is probably better they did not.

Some pictures of the Corvette recieving surgery.
