Beautiful interior. The woodgrain just pops against the sea of black leather. Nice work!

That is some wet looking silver!

Tough doing cars in parking garages though, I guess you bring extra lighting with you?

Thanks Scott - There was no paint correction involved in this detail except for the right side view mirror. That came out perfect. So this time I didn't bring my halogens with me.

With dark colors it is a different story.
