That and the car is actually driven, so the front shows it. What do you think?? Blackcrow64 06-22-2007, 05:47 PM Damn... Wow... I wish I had a paintjob that was like a mirror... :( Looks so damn good man. So when you gonna sell it to me? lol stieh2000 06-22-2007, 08:10 PM Ohhhhhhhhh, from the title I thought you had a 4 day 1/4 mile run :icon16: Seriously though, the car looks wicked as always. I wish the paint job on my camaro could look half as good, and that I had your patience. :worshippy Andydg 06-24-2007, 03:44 PM Looks great! I love the WS6's. Got any tips for n00bs to the porter cable? Mr. Luos 06-24-2007, 07:19 PM Got any tips for n00bs to the porter cable? Move somewhat slow. Make sure you work in the product until it is transparent. You should be able to see it on the paint, but also see the color of the car pretty easily. goldz28 06-24-2007, 08:12 PM That is amazing. I will have to bring my car to you so I can get it detailed. Have you ever thought about starting a detailing business? You do great looking work. Mr. Luos 06-24-2007, 08:24 PM My roommate actually does some detailing on the side. I wouldn't be able to do it. Time would be WAY too much of an issue. Mr. Luos 06-28-2007, 06:19 PM Roommate snapped these pics last Friday. One day after I finished. No wonder a friend told me it looked outstanding going down the road Friday afternoon. http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb165/Z06-Goose_2007/000_0746.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb165/Z06-Goose_2007/000_0757.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb165/Z06-Goose_2007/000_0755.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb165/Z06-Goose_2007/000_0753.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb165/Z06-Goose_2007/000_0762.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb165/Z06-Goose_2007/000_0760.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb165/Z06-Goose_2007/000_0749.jpg Blackcrow64 06-29-2007, 01:21 AM Your Trans Am is such a camera whore. lol ikeyballz 06-29-2007, 06:59 AM seriously. haha nowdayhs i dont even wash my car ... cuz i dont drive the maro. the neon takes beatings like none other. :D sexy car, like always. im tellin ya.. make a list of all the parts, prices, and add a couple G's.. and sell it to someone as a "do it yourselfer luos-power-package" lmao :P i guess its kinda hard to ship an engine block tho. i wish i had the engine + a little FI in a black on black w. blackouts vette. that is sex. :) id be as content as can be. viperh 06-30-2007, 06:22 AM Lous, I've never heard of the 50/50 alcohol/H2O mix.
