    This is a detail done primarily by my friend Dan, I just so happened to put the finishing touches on it because a conflict I wasn't able to help with the full detail.

    Minimal pics but the car was not in overly bad shape for it's age, few rust spots on the rear quarters and bubbling paint on the wheels, all stuff the owner is looking to take care of. The color really hides defects very well, which made correcting interesting. All that plastic did make for a lot of taping too!:thud:

    Enjoy!

    Very nice work, looking very sharp for a (dark) silver vehicle.
