So, I met some guys on a meet out here in El paso and gave them some detaining business cards (one of my many businesses lol). One of the guys asked me to do his CTS-V. BTW, that thing is an ANIMAL!. I saw him take an M5 as if it was a normal E60 and yes it is recorded. FTR both vehicles were stock.

Anyway, I didn't go all out because my boy did not want the whole shebang. So I mainly focused on getting the major issues out of the paint. No wheels engine or interior. BTW, all of the products used were purchased from or produced by Adam's Polishes (if you have any questions let me know).

Here are some Iphone pics. Sorry I did not think I was ever going to post one of these but next time I will be better photographically prepared.

The interior is BEAUTIFUL! I do not like the carbon Fiber "look" accents but it is beautifully lit up.


Look at the brakes on this puppy!


Taping it up


Hood half way done. That thing was so pitted and chipped that perfection without a respray was almost impossible. I got it as good as I could though.


Hood complete
