They say the great ones always have that "One" that stands out and puts them over the edge.. Guys this is your "One" by far. I usually don`t even bother with the long write ups. They always tend to be more filler than anything but I couldn`t stop reading through this one until it was done. You guys had me hooked from start to finish here. The attention to details and the awesome photo`s really put this one away. Absolutely one of the best write ups I`ve ever had the pleasure of seeing...

**Arunas** · 07-04-2010, 12:13 PM

Amazing! :O

**ADetailedFinish** · 07-04-2010, 12:31 PM

WOW That`s an absolutely amazing car... and you guys topped it off with outstanding work! I love all of the pictures you took!

**WAS** · 07-04-2010, 12:42 PM

Wow, that was quite the write-up and quite the detail ! I`m not even sure that counts as a "detail" anymore, but I don`t know what else to call it. It doesn`t get any more Autopian than that, I`m sure that`s even cleaner and better protected than "rolled-off-the-factory". And so many days to do it in, with an owner willing to fork out the cash, that`s the best part. Being seriously time-pressured is the worst. AMAZING turn out !

I take that as a good thing. Thanks for the kind words and for taking a look at a very large project of ours.

Thank you

Your question is answered by the next post

I had chills the whole time I read this. That is awesome work. You raised the bar even higher with that one. I totally know what you are talking about with getting the check but the opportunity and pure joy of it make it worth it. I love detailing cars. I`ve learned so much from your threads.

I finally have a question. When you dressed the front wheels, did you dress the inboard side of the wheels also. Normally you can`t see them but with this style of vehicle it was right there.

Tim

Thank you Tim for the clarification to a question by a fellow autopian as well as for the kind comments. The inside of the tires were also dressed as well as the standard outside. Because of the nature of this car, we felt it`d be important to leave no stone unturned. One of the great things about dressing tires is that it allows for a much more even and consistent color of the rubber which makes it look that much more appealing to anyone that might notice.

I don`t know when the owner is taking it to the next show, but I`m certainly hopeful it`ll do well. It has certainly done well in the past and I`d like to think that our labor has surely improved the appearance.

How`s things going Jesse? Thanks for your continued support and I look forward to your next write-up: no doubt it`ll be another stunning car with entertaining words to go along as usual

Very much so Jason. Thanks a lot for the kind remarks and I plan on giving you a ring much sooner than later. Hope you`re enjoying your 4th and I`ll be in touch!

best thread on autopia.

Wow, thanks. Autopia is home to some of the best threads ever and while we poured a lot of work and energy into the car, write-up, and presentation, what`s best is certainly in the eyes of the beholder. I`ll at least say it`s our best thread

I wish this allowed for the purchase of an M5, but if anyone is getting rich from detailing - it certainly isn`t me!

Jake, thanks a lot man. Good to hear from you as always and I hope you`re continuing to do well in SC. As always, we appreciate guys taking the time from their day to read our threads (especially one that is so long) and this is no exception. Thank you!
