    The Driver Birth of a Detailer

    I had to pick this up from Chicago, some 900 miles away an drive it back. Whole story which you can read on autopia.

    2014 Phantom Black, Black Diamond stitched sport seats, Alcantara W/Carbon V8 Bi-turbo 7 speed Dual Clutch!

    From the second I got my hands on it, it was time to start the crazy detailers regiment. Step one, get it protected for the 900 mile high speed assault on the front facia. Did this by doing a full 3m defender spray over 3/4 up the hood line. I'll admit, I SOAKED it way more then I needed to but knowing how far an long we were traveling it was a must.

    This shot was taken as I was stripping it off when we got it home. I used plastidip remover an it literally melted off the car into this goup.

    These bugged me, the car must have been backed up into a bush or something wirey. There about 30-50 deep scratches on the front doors an rear fenders where annihilated.

    Pillars are a great indicator of proper care... these definitely had a story to tell.

    Some pretty mean paint means some pretty tools...

    The other side, even more ripped up. Again massive scuffing.

    Discovering more deeper scratches in between the swirls, look closely. It was pretty bad.

    looking as it should now. Looks like the previous owner took it through the swirlinator a few too many times to wash it
