Sorry about the after pics, but the car is dirty as sin right now. Anyway, here you go.
Before: After: Now, couple of things to clean up the car. That quarterpanel repair I had previously mentioned, well, they simply masked the bump stop. Looks like crap right now, but soon to be fixed. And sadly, on the driver side of things, no paint work, but under all three pieces of bump stop that came off there was some surface pitting in the paint. You can't even feel it with your fingernail, but you can see it. I'm hoping a cutting compound takes care of it, but we'll see. So what do you all think??? Next up is tint and 18's in black. -------------------- |

for the pitting in the paint, try wet sanding with 2000 grit then buffing with a strong agent with a wool pad then with a mild agent with a foam pad. That's what we do with stuff like that where I work and on pitted clearcoat and acid stains and scratches and lotsa stuff like that it takes them right out.
*EDIT* and yeah, the car looks good This post has been edited by blu94gt: Feb 5, 2006 - 2:56 PM -------------------- 1999 Celica GT

QUOTE(WannabeGT4 @ Feb 5, 2006 - 5:34 PM) [snapback]389282[/snapback] With a name like Fastbird that must be a WS6. Riiiiight? Actually......no. It's a 93. The WS6 package didn't come out until 96. That one in the picture is making 345 RWHP 360 RWTQ on a VERY mild street setup. My one hiding in the garage (another 93) should be making in the area of 650-750 RWHP when the blower motor is finished this summer. This is the one from the pic with the Celi. This is my (going to be) really fast one. More info at http://home.comcast.net/~fastbird -------------------- |
