Enjoy!

you gotta love customers with loads of money.

Why do you opti-coat AND wrap the car?

only part of the car was wrapped hence protection on the rest of the car would make sense. :w00t:

wow....came out great but a crazy amount of work!! Hard to believe the dealer would deliver the car with all that paint/wheel/tire damage!

That textile sealant looks very interesting.

Looks perfect except for the surface rust on the rotors; couldn't you do something like rub them down with some steel wool?

yup this is very unfortunate. we have more of these write ups coming soon, and they get worse!
