Afters

 

Love that color, way to make it right Phil and team.

 

Great job, Phil! I see you have been doing a lot of BMWs lately, even more then Audis.

 

the last few weeks I believe we have had quite a few BMW's.

Don't worry the wave of Porsche and Audi will be back this week starting with an Audi S8 then a Porsche 911 Cab.

 

Yay!!! more Audis please .. and especially S8!

 

Nice sun shots ! Any estimate on how many microns of clear were removed using the D300/SF4000 combo ?

 

its not much at all at the most 5 microns.

 

Very nice

 

Nice job!
