2005 Ferrari 575M HGTC Detail

[autoconcierge]

Completed today, this is a car a repeat client just picked up and it was in pretty good shape over all but needed that last 10% to be "Certified tightness".



I have always been fond of the 550/575 bodystyle as I fit in them(lol) and they drive and look beautiful. Certain parts need aggressive correction and the clearfilm was marred pretty badly so here it is.
