Beautiful car! Constructive criticism:



1. The exterior would have looked even better if you had cleaned/dressed the wheel wells.



2. The interior is still showing some dirt under the steering column on the tan trim. This likely wouldn't be seen if the wheel was lowered, but just FYI for next time!

Did you do any paint correction? These cars normally come with very messy paint from the factory.

good stuff - and nice job!



Can't believe for the money you have to spend to get one, the paint comes with THAT much orange peel.

the car is schedule for at least one pass 205 , that`s why i focus on interior more than exterior. needs claybar too.

the orange peel is the clear bra , the car come in pretty good shape.

the wheel wells is not like regular plastic shield , some kind of texture/fabric pores , i don``t know how to call it ...

the car has some haze, i think when the delivery film was remove...

i did not play with the steering wheel , but i will keep that in mind.

thanks

I think what he see's as dirt under the steering wheel is just the leather creased up. Still looks good. Post pics of it completed when you do it. Thanks for showing.

You may wan to inspect the car a bit closer with a LED lamp when you return (especially the bumpers and side skirts); Ferrari's don't come from the factory in "great" condition, trust me . Also, make sure you inspect it with the customer so he can see the damage also. Looks nice BTW !

I see the tan leather under the steering wheel that wouldn't be seen if the wheel were adjusted all the way down. I also see what looks like dirt on the left side of that area on a horizontal plane. If the leather is installed badly enough to be that wrinkly in there, that's pathetic fit and finish for a Ferrari.

Excellent! :up



Regarding the poor constructive criticism in/near post #2:



a) That is not dirt.

b) You are recommending that the OP dress the carpeted wheel wells? How?



My constructive criticism for you is to invest in a larger computer screen! :cooleek:

Fair enough re: not dressing the wells, but I clean my carpeted wells and they come out great. I took a glance and didn't realize they were carpeted at first.



I guess I'm just picky, because I also notice things on my itty bitty 23" screen like the dirt on the rocker panel in front of the wheel that was missed, the non-carpeted flap behind the wheel in that same well that is dirty, and an apparent miss on part of the rear diffuser (black plastic). Maybe the photos are just playing tricks on me.



The car looks great overall, but if we're all just here to cheerlead and not offer any advice for improvement, then what's the point?

when i wash the car i saw on driver door like a haze , i am sure was over clean when delivered. why LEDs, halogen is not enough for defects on red?

also i may have to open the top , cover the interior and do the paint that`s under the glass when closed... will be a pain to buff that piece special it has half clear bra to protect the paint when top down , Apollo u may know what i am talking about , i saw your posts
