[drew935]

Client wanted it cleaned up but not a full correction as it had a lot of RIDS. Decided to use some of the products I got from Kevin Brown

The hood - Pretty much sums up the defects on the whole car with RIDS and swirls

The fender

Headlight lids

50/50 on the fender

Sanding discs to cut those RIDS

Rear bumper scuff

Gone

I had fun using those sanding discs.

Pass fender

After

It received the same sanding treatment

Leather seats cleaning 50/50

Done

He was wondering if he should let his wife drive the car now lol since it's a car for her and she doesn't know how to drive manual yet.

At least now it looks like a low mileage car with 66,000 miles

Yea, when I saw that snake Bose set up, I was laughing. Not sure what they were thinking with it taking up almost half of the hatch area.

This one had it as well. That was the first time that I had seen it.

Not to mention having to take it partially apart to get to the spare. I wonder how many we're messed up due to a frustrated owner with a flat. lol

I guess that they didn't think of that. When I saw it, it reminded of me of the Blue Man Group's drums in Vegas lol

Great job, maybe you didn't do a full correction but it looks like it anyway!

Thanks Scott! Yes, I focused more on the more visible RIDS and areas of the car that are seen by everyone.

Everywhere received a polish but not a correction.

Looks great Drew!! I had a buddy back in the day who had one and how he felt about that car was nothing short of true love

Most rotary owners are like that. Yes, there is the random kid who gets his hands on one and doesn't know what he's doing, but for the most part, us rotary owners have a real bond with our cars and engines.

Thanks Joey! You guys are true fans of the rotary and I agree with the bond.

I like flat engines in the Porsches and have it in my suby as well.

Porsches are my bond! :heelclick
