My Ride: A Car
Default

I left my baby there for a day and I missed it so much that I had to go back and see it! LOL. Actually, I was an idiot and left my house keys in the car. I took everything from quarters to GUM but not my house keys!

Some pictures of the work. The took the dings out and before I left, primed the areas that needed primer. Top notch job. Very careful. All moldings, handles, mirrors, etc will be taken off prior painting whole car. This is basically prep work and it's gonna take 2 days to prep. Also filled up the indentation where the ACS sticker goes on the spoiler. Much cleaner look! These guys may be a bit more expensive than other places but I am GUARANTEED good work.

Some Vlad, where r u to take more pix? U promised!!! haha. and DK, i need ur expertise when it's done!
