thanks man ! The buffing makes a big difference after paint that's of course before wet sanding the clear coat before the buff and polish!

Love the panspeed flares, the one thing that would help the look of this car though is a smaller sidewall tire, especially up front.

Looks nice. Any reason why you didn't want to paint the hood and headlights? I think that would really set it off.

Wow, I didn't think I liked wide body FCs, but that car looks mean! I'm usually not a fan of red either... I guess the FC is just an exception to all the rules lol. Those are really nice rims you have on it too. Good taste!
