Called in to bring back the condition of this GT3RS after it had went on the "One lap of America" rally, the owner obviously enjoys the car as intended and was "A little dirty"............ dealt with many issues such as marred paint, sticker removal off the clearfilm(Not fun) and centerlock HRE's which dirty and baked like a cookies in the oven (lol).

Marring on the passenger door clearfilm caused by the sticker application.

Correcting marring on film is no "Day at the beach" , it would take close to two hours to gently remove the marring on the film.
