This thing is a beauty...some carbon fiber tastefully placed and powder coated rims as well as a painted front grill. Very nice.



Process on Paint:

Wash via Foamgun + Shmitt

Clay via Claymagic

SSR 2.5 via 6" Yellow LC on Rotary at 1800 RPM (Up to 3 times in places)

SSR 2.5 via 4" Orange LC on PC at 6

SSR 1 via 4" White LC on PC at 6

Pinnacle Souveran by hand



Wheels and glass was clayed then cleaned with AIO and sealed with SG



On to the pictures...

I really like how the tires are not very glossy, just a nice classy clean look, what did you use on them?

Fantistic work on this one! Not too many people seem to use Poorboys anymore, but I still use it with great results. You show off how well the products work!

Yea I really love the Poorboys SSR line. The only thing i hate is the dusting, its like a freaking storm when I`m polishing with that stuff.

I`m the owner and not only was Andrew a pleasure to deal with but he did an amazing job on the car. I`d recommend his services to anyone in the area, and I`ll be going back for more with my wife`s Jeep. The box on the front is not a jammer/radar device, it`s for our local toll pass system. Since I`m not a fan of the in-car windshield mount I opted for the front-mount version.
