Yea it is. I put three coats but should have stopped at 2. And not brushy at all, smooth as can be

Got my first chance to Auto-x the Konis last weekend. Good stuff. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. :)

Combined with the Maximum Motorsport plates camber plates (maxed out on caster and 2.5 degrees camber, its definitely handling a lot better and feels a lot better. I was really struggling to stay in place, even with the Recaros. Might be harness time.

For now, I mostly need to work on the nut behind the wheel. SCCA in Crandall this Sunday. I'd like to give it a go on a concrete surface.

Oh yeah. Felt really weird painting the "yellows" black, but from certain angles they kind of stood out. Other than the rims and the faux filler, I'm ready to run moonshine.

The calipers didn't come out as I was wanting so thinking about painting them yellow to match...

That sucks. Yellow would be different. But it would be a good contrast with the struts behind the black wheels.

:rice:

LOL. To each his own I guess.

with the time off I got for my son being born I decided to get a good detail.

car was pretty dusty from the sawdust from the wood floors we had installed..

next all taped off so I dont get any of the product on the plastic or vinyl.

the product I used this time. I was out of the polish and all the autozones around me were sold out of the professional polish so I had to use the consumer level product.

yes I know these are not the best products out there but they were what I had on hand and worked well for what I was trying to do.

It took me 3 days and my hands are killing me from the porter cable but I finally finished and it looks like glass!
