Here are some more before pics of the car:



And finally, after over 15 hours of work, we were finally done. The vehicle was finished with XMT glaze followed by P21S, since the vehicle was to be entered in today's local car show. We could have done even more, but the budget had been well exceeded and at this point we were just trying to highlight the specific areas that most people look at. The wheels were absolutely toast, so we couldn't save them despite a power wash and full removal. Only parts cleaner did the job but the cost to perform such a service exceeded the cost to have them stripped and powdercoated again, so we did the best with what we had. My most favorite improvement besides the wonderful paint had to be the venturi tunnels. Brasso applied with a PC and blue LC foam pad worked incredibly. This will be my go-to product/process for future use on Lotuses. It was a beautiful day today, which was nice because I was able to drive it to the car show on some great roads.
