Default 17 hours on a custom Z06

This was a 2-step paint correction to fix severe swirls and holograms after having the roof and hood painted, along with some polishing of the rare Fikse FM5 wheels too.


Total time invested: 17 hours

*AFTER*






































































Thanks for checkin it out!

Yeah this thing is lower than lowering on the bolts, it has no bolts LOL. I didn't like the hood at first, especially doing heavy correction on such a challenging surface, but it really grew on me.
