One of the best detailing turnarounds ever: Jaguar XKR

Raz335 · 02-01-2008, 12:45 PM

After spending much time on Autopia forums, I don't think I've ever seen such a fantastic detailing job. Going from the cars original condition to the final pics is almost unreal. One of the last pics of the hood shows how deep and clear the paint ends up. Take a look:

onehappydad · 02-01-2008, 02:13 PM

WOW, quite a transformation. Doesn't even look like the same car or color. Thanks for sharing.

DAYUM!

That is an awesome correction. Interesting to read that the owner is "passionate" about the car. I assume this is the new owner and not the previous owner who appeared to use steel wool in the washing process.

that wet sand machine looks AWESOME! i want some

so is his work space! man my back is so sore every time i do a detail

Haywire · 07-03-2008, 10:01 PM

Price tag = the price of my coupe, LoL...

some people BUY cars for the price this dude probably paid to have his fixed up

There is owning a nice car, and theres owning a nice car and being stinking fu@king rich.

But seriously, for someone THIS good...how much would he be charging an hour. that must have been a detail in the thousands!
