Looks nice. I also had Classic Coachworks (north) do my front bumper cover. 2 months later I got hit and it destroyed the front and rear ones. I had CC north paint the entire car. They are a great body shop.

Default Great Job

The detailer did a great job on your car. I went into his link and read his writeup on the work he performed.

He mentioned that he cleaned the paint with "IPA", which I believe is IsoPropol Alchohol. I've seen similar comments from other detailers. Can anyone comment on how safe it is to use alcohol to clean your paint before doing any buffing? Seems like a good idea.....just wondering if I can do any damage using the stuff on my cars.

Ian-- Wow. 113,000 miles never looked so good!

[...except 272,000 on Iris Blue -- right, Rich? ]

The car looks GREAT and, as always, the 996 Turbo wheels look spectacular on your WB. Btw, it's OK to post more pics.

oh for pete's sake... I am just starting to warm up to the idea of my narrowbody car finally and you go posting a thread like this...

This brings back memories on a couple levels --

1) my very first 993, which was a 98 C2S Arctic Silver/Black that Harlan Chinn owns up in Seattle. I miss that car.

2) my 97 C2S Guards Red (miss even more), which I had detailed with the kind of job you got done. I found religion around doing so. In fact, my blue 993 is scheduled for the same treatment with the same guy in July. Major $$, but I felt giddy over how that car looked after the detail for a very long time. Worth it.

I know what you are feeling right now. Absolutely gorgeous. Congrats!
