What have you done to your P5 today?

Ok so the paint was wrinkling a bit strangely... I think I put way too much paint on. It took 2 cans of brake cleaner, a can of caliper cleaner, and some pb blaster (and tons of shop towels) to get the wrinkle paaint off.. then once I spent all that time getting it clean back on wrinkle paint went. This time I did lighter coatings.. just enough so that it is evenly red.

The first pic is the weird wrinkling (I have the 8 megapixel version that I should have cropped instead of resized.. oh well) and the second pic is the new paint. I think I might have a pic showing how thick it was before on one of my cell phones but I don't have time to look around for that right now.

Oooh.. nice.. Can you do mine? :D
 
Cool! I just picked up another valve cover tonight so I can send it out for powdercoat with my new factory strut bar ( This is round II - Morris Powdercoating stole my original strut bar) You East coasters are up late - don't you have a booty-call to make?

Looking good Mark....I have to wipe my chin everytime I see pics of your car. I got mine detailed in and out but didn't have a chance to wax...hopefully tomorrow.

Seems like a lot of us were washing and detailing today. Sunny days FTW!!!

Some Idiot in a "Body Kit 1.6L" Honda pulled up and honked three times as a joke..

The 300C Pulling a 944 actually put 1/2 a car on him to 80 MPH from 60.. on three seperate runs..

Kansei, what kind of crinkle paint is that? got a link?

I spent a few hours getting the Memphis Belle into my car yesterday.
It looks and sounds phenomenal... :)
