Heck yeah Phil, that looks great!

Looks like I need to apply PL a little differently, I don't think I have it thick enough because I can barely see it when I applied it yesterday with my Griots and a blue uBer pad.

 

Awesome job.

 

Great Job Phil, looks like mid summer done there

 

Amazing work! That reminds me, I still have 2 cans of In&Out spray sitting, I need to try them out on engine...

 

Great work as always Phil!

 

Nice work there Phil, that thing was in rough shape.

-Kody-

 

thanks guys!

you won't be disappointed with In and out.

 

Outstanding job Phil as it was hammered.

 

Nice job Phil. Looks great!

 

I cleaned my engine today, and used In&Out to dress it and was VERY IMPRESSED with it. I really like it. Very easy to use, no wiping needed afterwards.

 

Good job!

 

Phil did you apply powerlock to the matt finish on the bumpers and wheel moldings?

 

we did not put anything on the matte finish at that time, I may try a spot next time but it would shine it up.

 

Great work Phil!

 

thanks!

 

Those cars are very under-rated and they go for cheap. I'd buy one if I had a family of my own.

 

this particular one has about 650 hp to the crank!

 

Great job Phil! What did you use on the black textured trim?

 

I believe we just wiped them down with some spray wax.
