So I know a couple months ago I posted up about booking in a Nissan GTR for a full wheels off treatment. Unfortunately the day before he was scheduled to drop off the front bumper was struck in a parking lot.
Fast forward to last week and the owner contacted me stating that the GTR was ready for me. I got started on Sunday and buttoned it up on Tuesday afternoon.
This particular GTR has the factory "Scratch Shield" self healing clear coat which in some cases can be a PITA to correct. This particular car only needed correcting in some areas. The rest of the car got a light polishing. The front bumper, headlights, mirrors and half of the hood have clear bra so those areas were just coated.
