Good post - and nice looking car.
Yeah - we've really ruined it now, 'cause those pics were taken the morning after the clear was shot on it... hadn't even been sanded yet. We totally ruined the entire illusion by sanding and buffing it smooth - just another sign of a rank amateur trying to make something into something it's not.
