I dropped in to AP last weekend and Craig couldn't help but show me around. Even sat in a newly finished, ready for registration car. Very nice (thanks Brad).

Craig showed me a body that was just out of the mould with al the seams still in tact. The finish was incredible. As shiny as a painted car without a doubt. Maybe not the depth like Candy Apple Red of course but it was impressive. Not sure of the cost to remove and fill the seams but that is apparently the most popular (90%) preference. The other cars there with this option were just amazing.

I'll bet it is one of the questions Craig is asked more than anything else ... So what else have you done to get that to look so smooth?
