Default Before and After Detail Pics - Turquoise Blue

As some here know, I like to spoil my 993s from time to time with a professional detail. There are concours types on here for whom this would just be a warm up

Usually a couple days, taped off, full paint correction, engine, interior, etc. Hope you enjoy.

Nice work, Jonathon. I think you should post this one in the 'show your ugly mug with your car' thread:

Your car is incredible. That is going to be a very valuable classic one day, assuming it is maintained well for the rest of its life. Which of course, there is no question about that as long as you are the owner! Don't sell it like you did with your S (was it a red C2S? C4S?)... you will regret it!

Looks incredible. Its amazing what modern waxes can do to infill spider marks in a paint finish.

I notice the seats are still stock. What's happening there?

Thanks. A few responses -

1) that's not me...that is the detailer in the reflection... i know better than to post my mug here
2) why is it that no matter what the topic or post, someone reminds me of what an idiot i was to sell my red C2S. yes, thank you...got it! I am not sure I agree about the collectibility of this particular car. It is in great shape and it is a unique color...love the color. But if I come across the right widebody, I would consider selling this. For now, it makes me grin a lot.
3) Kind of put the seat thing on hold, but this car does beg for the hardback painted look. If I found some really perfect OEM sports seats or speedster style seats, I woudl do it. If I decide to keep longer term, would do that upgrade, RS /big red brakes, seat belts and RS steering wheel

looks spectacular Jonathan.

Send me your current address, I got a pretty good TB match in those rennlist Pcar stickers. Even if it just goes on the garage wall, I think you need one.
