Default Detail - 911 (964) 3.6 - Solid Black

A Stage 2 Exterior Detail.
Car is down from Sydney to be re-detailed for the fussy owner.
It was going to be a respray, but we'll try to save the owner either a few panels or a complete respray (and probably upto ~$10K as well).

Tyres were left undressed, imo they look better, esp wrapped around those exotic Speedline Wheels

Wow! great results.
If a "fussy" owner, why did he let the car get so bad? I would think that he would not let it get to that condition. I would be ashamed to bring my car in looking like that.

+1 Looks like the owner washed it with a steel wool pad. Also the paint around the rear badging looks pitted, maybe a respray gone bad?

+1 That is exactly what I thought when I saw the final shots of the detailed car. Looks like a few areas were resprayed like the drivers door and rear.

Nice job on the detailing though.

He has just bought the car, bought in Syndey and brought down to Melbourne.
He is having it detailed to see what will come up well and what needs some paint.

As far as I can tell, it's in good condition, never tracked, just the engine cover & barbecue need painting and a touch up here and there.

Best 964 i've seen in my life was this Silver Jubilee
