Presidential Detailed: 2002 Pontiac Trans Am Firehawk

[Presidential_Detail]

This car has been sitting for a while, the owner accidentally shut the garage door onto the rear bumper and wanted me to get out the scratches for him and decided to just do the entire car. It was in pretty rough shape, I spent a total of 3 days on this one..Enjoy! PS. I got the scratches out of the bumper..;)

[maddenbowler]

pretty impressive

[Presidential_Detail]

Thanks!

[killrflake]

Wow, the owner must have been totally shocked when he came to get his car. Now if he can try to maintain it a bit better then he has been. Very nice work.

[Presidential_Detail]

Actually the owner hasnt even seen it yet! The real owner stores it at his friends house, his friend shut the door on it on accident, called me up and got more than he bargained for! haha! The owner will be floored the next time he goes over to see it!
