Re: 1997 Toyota Supra 15th Anniversary Edition

Got Leather: Thanks!

BufferBarry: Yep that was the car I was waiting on when we talked. Funny thing was I didn't think it looked so bad when I checked it in. But that is probably b/c it was 11:30 at night! Thanks for the kind words. I saw God working on those wheels. No lie...over 1 hour per wheel (not including taking them off). But the result was worth it. The paint was buttery. I really wanted one more step, but maybe next time. I really love Supernatural on Black. I am intrigued by this d and B style detailing merger potential.... I think it could be awesome

Scottwax: Thank you Scott. The engine was a little scary to work on with so much jammed in there.

Artixscout/ Greg Nichols: Cool! The car is straight forward enough. My only advice would be that the side rails (bottom 2 inches or so) are like a vinyl decal, so once you get them clean no need to polish them. Also, the interior cockpit area has a matte finish. you won't get any shine out of it. Come to think of it, the whole dash is a little matted as well...not your typical Toyota surfacing. The leather is a rough leather. Not smooth (by design) and also matted. My pictures are way washed out, but they looked great in person. The only problem with them was that the driver side had a water stain.

Denzil: Thank you!

Thanks. It did a nice job. The exhaust came out ok. You can see the tip in one shot. It can out great! The muffler body came out well but the muffler face was in horrible shape and I couldn't get it all so I got what I could with carious levels of steel wool and Never Dull. My bad though, I simply forgot to get the exhaust pics.
