It may be a home garage repaint but its top quality and the paint has been wet sanded and buffed/polished to a glass like finish, Zero orange peel in the paint and I would rate it way better than the factory finish....so I'm happy

Thanks guys..
duke...I kept the colour the same as original L90E alpine white. Didnt really care for white when I bought her ( it was for its performance basically ) but it really has grown on me and I'm glad I kept her original.
Rolex...I will post more pics as I near completion, possibly taken alongside my friends 2 mint condition 944 turbo's, one is a 30k from new baltic blue coupe and his other one is a black 32k turbo cabrio!

More often than not body shops will only give what you pay for, unless you pay top dollar I would recommend people tackle this themselves, its very easy if you follow the rules. The easy part is putting the paint on, its the hours of wetsanding and buffing that will determine the end result but its well worth it and very satisfying....not to mention the $$$$$ you save!
