    Great work. Looks like you were a little warm in there :).

    Do you wear a back support? I'm considering one to avoid other back injuries.

    Absolutely beautiful turnaround. I cringe whenever I see a car like that in that sort of condition...

    Fantastic work, but you already knew that. :)

    Those light metallic lambos are sorta weird looking, not much pop and almost a satiny look.

    Great work there Bob, that was a huge turnaround!

    FYI, we've got a thread going with Ben at Rubbish Boys for a 50mm backing plate group buy. It roughly converts to two inches so if you're interested in a few, be sure to sign up!

    Great work. You don't see many Lambo's in that color. I really like it. Kudos on your innovation to create a 2" pad - avoided a lot of hand polishing. ;)

    Fantastic work, Bob.

    I see you're using the CG Water Spot Remover quite a bit. I really need to try it out.

    Your damn right I want one or ten................. since MR GI cannot seem to get er dun (lol) as the cost is high to tool the backing plates unless you have billions run off so I will let Rich off the hook:sorry:

    As to the light bar, yes it is a one off made for me by Kevin @ Performance Art in Gilroy
