Looks great!

Did the top get any special treatment?

Not other than just car wash.
The customer it had been treated at the Porsche dealership when he purchased it. It did bead like crazy so I didn't argue with him.

Thanks!

Beautiful work Justin! Gotta love those shiny curves!

Quick question: How is UF workability with an orbital? AFAIK, this product is intended for use with a rotary.

Well, it works fine with the new, more powerful machines. I also like to use smaller, 5.5" pads so there is more rotation.

This all being said, I use 205 95% of the time now.

105/205 is about all anyone needs.

Beautiful car, great work on the detail, but those rims have GOT to go...they look HORRIBLE on that car.

Agreed but I just clean'em.

IT's cool man, even rich folks can have no taste. They actually cheapen the look of the car so much for me that if I'd had the money for a Porsche, I'd pass that car up if they didn't offer to switch the wheels for free.
